Fewer regulations on these technologies lead to virtual and novel medical equipment, boosting the global medical devices market. The rise in regional support for the establishment and demand for these devices, as well as the world economy's slowing return to pre-pandemic levels.
In addition, with the recent trend of wearable medical devices gaining traction among a broader consumer base, the market is likely to fuel during the forecast period. Over the forecast period, leading market players' advanced models, the latest features, ideal prices, and rising marketing efforts moves the global medical devices market forward. Furthermore, the usage of 3D printing in manufacturing can aid in the development of upgraded and high-performance surgical equipment such as hemostats and forceps, which is projected to drive the market expansion further. The global medical device market has also been significantly transformed by 3D printing in the healthcare industry. It facilitates the production of customized devices for patients because it allows for easy design adjustments without additional tools, projected to boost the market growth.
Furthermore, domestic manufacturing of critical medical devices is projected to reduce trade barriers while ensuring product quality and market stability. In addition, the increased frequency of chronic diseases, corresponding increases in disability-adjusted life years, technological developments in medical equipment, and a steady increase in the aging population are expected to expand the global medical devices market.
MARKET RESTRAINTS:
The potential of data breaches and crucial information hacking via these devices is predicted to hinder the global medical devices market expansion.
MARKET OPPORTUNITIES:
The increased frequency of chronic diseases such as cancer and diabetes is expected to significantly boost the global medical devices market and create numerous growth possibilities for the companies operating in this space. Chronic diseases such as cancer and diabetes are rising due to a lack of physical activity, long working hours, and unhealthy eating habits. Furthermore, bad lifestyles and eating habits attract severe diseases, which is projected to boost the demand for medical devices in the near future. Moreover, the use of AI in medical devices such as remote patient monitoring devices, wearable medical devices, Electronic Health Records (EHR), and other similar examples is expected to accelerate the penetration of medical devices into consumers' daily lives.
In addition, the use of Big Data analytics to manage, access, analyze, and process new medical data to produce more effective medical devices is expected to boost industry growth. The global medical devices market is further expected to rise due to increased research and development (R&D) operations by leading companies to produce more advanced devices using artificial intelligence (AI), big data, and machine learning.
MARKET CHALLENGES:
The potential loss of revenue due to delays in product launches and the additional costs paid due to demanding approval processes places pressure on new product development investments that are predicted to challenge the growth rate of the global medical devices market.
COVID-19 Impact on the global medical devices market:
COVID-19's global impact has been unprecedented and devastating, with medical device adoption levels falling across all areas due to the pandemic. Since the advent of COVID-19 in many nations, demand for medical supplies, in-vitro diagnostic instruments, and respiratory care devices has surged significantly. This need is predicted to remain to combat the pandemic and reduce the danger of infection emergence and transmission. To restrict the spread of COVID-19, the necessity to diagnose, treat and monitor patients without human interaction has increased, leading to more uses of medical technology that allows medical practitioners to treat their patients remotely. Artificial intelligence (AI) applications in human care, wearable medical equipment, and remote patient monitoring are instances of such technology. In addition, personal protective equipment (PPE) such as face shields and nasal swabs for COVID-19 testing are being produced by 3D printing companies such as Massachusetts-based Markforged and Formlabs.

Global Medical Devices Market – By Type:
Based on the type, the increasing use of real-time diagnostic tests for precise detection of chronic and infectious diseases such as diabetes, cancer, HIV/AIDS, and others, the in-vitro diagnostics (IVD) market is predicted to grow at a faster rate.
The growth of the minimally invasive surgery (MIS) segment is predicted to be driven by technical improvements in surgical robots and their increasing use by healthcare professionals during the forecast period.
However, due to an ever-increasing patient pool suffering from various cardiac and orthopedic illnesses, the orthopedic and cardiovascular device segments are expected to accelerate rapidly. Furthermore, the rising prevalence of diabetes and retinal disorders in the general population is expected to propel the global medical devices market forward throughout the forecast period.
Global Medical Devices Market – By End-User:
Based on the end-user, due to the growing number of multispecialty and community hospitals, particularly in emerging nations, the hospitals & ASC’s segment was dominant in 2020. In addition, growing emphasis on routine diagnosis of patients and promoting awareness among the general population by healthcare organizations and the government is fuelling the market's growth over the forecast period.
Global Medical Devices Market – By Region:
Based on the region, the North American medical devices market is forecasted to account for the most significant portion of the global medical devices market during the forecast period due to the increased frequency of numerous chronic conditions in the region. Its dominance is mainly due to adequate and attractive reimbursement regulations, a well-developed healthcare infrastructure, rapid adoption of advanced medical technologies, and significant companies in the region. This is exacerbated by the expanding number of patients in the region receiving diagnosis and treatment due to rising incidence and prevalence. Furthermore, the region's substantial expansion in the healthcare and medical technology industries boosts medical device market growth. The industry's key firms in the United States have a considerable impact on market growth. In addition, advanced medical devices are being developed due to the increasing availability of skilled individuals and quick technical advancements in the region. The regional administration also encourages and facilitates the approval of innovative and advanced medical equipment to facilitate commercialization and accessibility to the general population. All of the factors are expected to fuel overall medical device market growth in North America.
