Global Medical Device Connectivity Market Size (2023 to 2028)

The global medical device connectivity market size is expected to register a 19.2% CAGR between 2023 to 2028 and be worth USD 6.43 billion by 2028 from USD 2.67 billion in 2023.

Given the boom in remote healthcare and expanded IoMT devices, almost all healthcare organizations have seen a significant rise in network traffic in the last year. Despite this, medical device connectivity (MDC) is a tried-and-true technology that can save nurses time, increase documentation quality and timeliness, and improve patient care and safety. The vulnerable technologies include everything from conventional medical devices to tools for preventing the virus from spreading inside the hospital. A healthcare organization should take a step-by-step approach to integrate ALL of their medical equipment, both legacy and new, into their EHR and EMR solutions, keeping in mind potential integration issues upfront. The medical device manufacturer should ideally develop and build interoperable devices or provide an alternative connectivity solution.

MARKET DRIVERS:

Y-O-Y growth in the healthcare technologies such as remote patient monitoring, EHR, EMR solutions, and telehealth/telemedicine is anticipated to accelerate the growth rate of the global medical device connectivity market. In addition, wearable healthcare monitoring devices are betting all the time, which is expected to fuel the global medical device connectivity market growth.

Wearable devices are also at the forefront of medical IoT. Aside from consumer fitness devices like the Fitbit or the Apple Watch, FDA-approved wearables designed to track patient conditions in real-time are becoming less expensive and more advanced. Healthcare professionals can get a real-time image of a patient's health using these low-cost, high-performance wearable devices. Doctors can monitor their patients' blood pressure, blood chemistry, pain levels, glucose levels, brain function, and other body parameters. Dedicated IoT networks will use wearable sensor data to detect the presence of conditions such as diabetes or atrial fibrillation, alerting the patient and the doctor to schedule an in-person checkup as soon as possible.

Telehealth systems help the healthcare sector cope with the aging population suffering from chronic diseases, which is expected to expand the global medical device connectivity market.

The world's population is aging, which is a reality of society. Baby boomers are now becoming senior citizens, fueling the aging population's growth. These advancements now include new therapies and early diagnostic methods based on advanced sensor and microcontroller (MCU) technologies available to the general public. As a result, according to the World Health Organization, people are living longer worldwide. Between 2015 and 2050, the proportion of the global population over 60 will nearly double, from 12% to 22%. According to the WHO report, noncommunicable diseases account for nearly half of the global disease burden (WHO). The most common are chronic degenerative diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, in which hypertension plays a significant role (600 million people worldwide), and metabolic diseases, such as diabetes (90 million people).

The Internet of Things (IoT) is becoming more widely used in healthcare, and this factor is estimated to act favorably in the global medical device connectivity market.

The healthcare industry has long been regarded as one of the most important Internet of Things (IoT) sectors. The Internet of Things (IoT) in healthcare applies networking technology to link medical devices and applications, allowing machine-to-machine communication and cloud connectivity. It can incorporate and merge customer and clinical data to create better and more effective linked consumer and treatment solutions by adopting IoT in healthcare and providing consistent patient care.  When doctors and nurses have access to more data, the quality and efficacy of treatment improve exponentially. Diagnoses are more precise, therapies are more tailored, and severe symptoms are identified earlier. Experience developing emerging technology for healthcare institutions to provide end-to-end integrated solutions for medical devices for the Internet of Things. Not only for Philips but also for other businesses. It delivers value where it matters most by collaborating with the company.

Technological advancements in this area are among the primary factors driving the global medical device connectivity market growth.

In the coming years, advancements in medical device connectivity are planned as industry experts prepare to release new standards that they claim will reshape technical interoperability. According to Tobias Klotz, Drägerwerk AG, and Co. KGaA's device architect, as medical technology has progressed, interoperability capabilities between devices such as ventilators and fusion pumps have lagged. The Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and the US Department of Health and Human Services will finalize and authorize the standards.

Additionally, the shift of the point of care (POC) from the hospital to the patient's home allows for more reliable and timely contact between the patient and the doctor, making cloud and mobility-driven medical devices a huge trend. The introduction of ACOs, and other recent developments in federal healthcare legislation and regulations, such as Medicare and Medicaid financial benefits and penalties. Along with the aforementioned factors, the rising use of mHealth or digital apps is expected to support the medical device connectivity market.

MARKET RESTRAINTS:

The growing adoption of IoT medical devices and stringent regulation scenarios hamper the medical device connectivity market growth. In addition, the high costs associated with and reluctance from medical professionals to habituate to healthcare IT are inhibiting the market's growth rate.

Impact of COVID-19 on the global medical device connectivity market:

Before COVID-19, healthcare was already overburdened in terms of security. Rapid system adoption has increased the need to protect patients from security issues. In addition, because of the pandemic, there was an unexpectedly high demand for some medical devices. The emergence of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes covid-19, has altered nearly every aspect of modern society, including how healthcare is provided, changing medical needs, and patient and provider acceptance of connected devices. In response, the USFDA and other regulatory bodies have updated guidelines on using telehealth and connected devices, at least for the time being. Due to the increasing availability of vaccinations, leading economists believe that other covid-19 preventive strategies, such as social distancing and mask wear, would remain in use for a long time, ensuring that telehealth and medical device access would become permanent fixtures in the way we provide and receive healthcare.
