Global Medical Wearables Market is valued at approximately USD 6.1 billion in 2019 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 21.4% over the forecast period 2020-2027.
Medical Wearables are the handheld monitoring tools primarily used in monitoring and identification of disease. With the rise in prevalence of chronic diseases, patients are opting for home healthcare tools as an efficient and cost-effective of treatment, instead of hospital services.
In the present scenario, medical wearables are gaining immense traction, due to enhanced technologies that are being pioneered consistently by the manufacturers. Due to these advancements of medical wearable technology and growing demand from patients to monitor their own health has influenced the growth of wearable medical device industry to develop more wearable devices, such as smartwatches, fitbits, and wearable monitors. Further, increasing the occurrence of chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular, cancer, etc., increasing usage of smartphones in health monitoring, and increasing awareness for health & fitness among people are the few factors responsible for high CAGR of the market during the forecast period, says a press release.
According to the American Heart Association, the occurrence of death due to cardiovascular diseases was about 17.6 million in 2016, and a number is expected to grow to over 23.6 million by 2030. Also, as per the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), about 610,000 die due to heart diseases in the United States every year. This, in turn, is projected to accelerate the adoption of medical wearables around the world. The outbreak of COVID-19 crisis has led to rise in demand for medical wearables, as these devices are helpful in screening and monitoring of novel coronavirus infections. Therefore, this factor can create lucrative opportunities for the medical wearable market in the forthcoming years. However, inaccuracy in the analysis of wearable generated data and unfavorable reimbursement issues impede the growth of the market over the forecast period of 2020-2027.
