Global Portable Medical Devices Market Size (2024 to 2029)

The global portable medical devices market is predicted to grow at a CAGR of 7.2% during the forecast period and be worth USD 108.46 billion by 2029 from USD 76.61 billion in 2024.

Global Portable Medical Devices Market Drivers:

The growing aging population significantly contributes to the portable medical devices market growth.

The WHO says the worldwide population of 60 years of age and above are expected to reach 1.4 billion by 2030, which is also one in every six people. The aged population is likely to be prone to various chronic diseases and needs regular health monitoring to avoid meeting risks; therefore, using portable medical devices. WHO says hearing loss, cataracts, refractive errors, back and neck pain and osteoarthritis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, diabetes, depression, and dementia are shared among the aging population. Portable medical devices such as blood glucose monitoring devices and portable oxygen concentrators are convenient devices for aged people to monitor and manage diseases from their homes. The demand for portable medical devices is likely to increase with the growing aging population, and the same is expected to result in the market's growth rate.

The growing adoption of technological advancements such as A.I., ML, IoT, and Big Data to manufacture effective portable medical devices is anticipated to fuel the market's growth rate. The market participants are leveraging the technology to manufacture medical devices that are small in size, user-friendly and accurate in results. Currently, portable medical devices such as pulse oximeters and blood glucose monitoring devices have come down to the size where they can fit in a pocket or purse and connects with mobile phones. Furthermore, with the integration of technological developments such as sensors, A.I., ML, and cloud computing in portable medical devices, their efficacy and reliability have been improved dramatically, due to which the adoption of these devices is increasing among people.

In addition, the growing population suffering from chronic diseases worldwide is anticipated to fuel the market's growth rate. The Centers for Disease Prevention and Control (CDC) says six in ten adults in the U.S. suffer from one chronic disease, and four in ten adults in the U.S. suffer from more than one chronic disease. Furthermore, increasing support from various governments, rising consumer demand levels for portable medical devices, and growing adoption of remote patient monitoring are estimated to favor the market's growth rate.

Global Portable Medical Devices Market Restraints:

High costs associated with portable medical devices are primarily hampering the market growth. Some of the portable medical devices are pricey and not affordable to some people, which is negatively impacting the adoption of these devices. Furthermore, reimbursement policies and standardization issues are necessary for market growth. In addition, poor awareness levels among people regarding the benefits associated with portable medical devices are inhibiting market growth. Furthermore, factors such as data privacy issues and regulatory issues are impeding the portable medical devices market.

Impact of COVID-19 on the portable medical devices market:

The demand for portable medical devices has accelerated due to the COVID-19 pandemic. To limit the spread of the coronavirus, many governments have announced lockdowns and imposed restrictions on traveling. Due to this, it has become difficult for people to go the hospitals or clinics for their medical needs. As a result, people have adopted remote patient monitoring, home healthcare, and telemedicine as alternatives. Due to this, the demand for portable medical devices such as blood glucose monitoring devices and pulse oximeters has significantly spiked. During the COVID-19 pandemic, many people have taken advantage of digital health and sought medical assistance, which has helped the portable medical devices market to a considerable extent. During the forecast period, the global portable medical devices market is anticipated to register a promising CAGR.

Portable medical devices are for patients to use outside hospitals or clinics. Healthcare centers adopt these devices in some parts of the world, but the usage of these devices is mainly limited to people. Some examples of portable medical devices include blood glucose monitoring devices, pulse oximeters, nebulizers, and portable oxygen concentrators. Using these devices, patients can easily keep a check on their health condition. The usage of these devices is high among people suffering from diseases such as diabetes, COPD, and others that require continuous health monitoring. The adoption of portable medical devices is expected to grow significantly in the coming days. The recent COVID-19 positively impacted the portable medical devices market growth.
