Global Pulse Oximeter Market Size (2022 to 2027)

The global pulse oximeter market size is estimated to be growing at a CAGR of 8.02% during the forecast period and was valued at USD 2.46 billion in 2021.

A pulse oximeter is a small, non-invasive medical instrument that measures variations in the amount of oxygen carried by red blood cells. It tests hemoglobin and heart rate and can be connected to body parts, including fingers, eyebrows, nose, foot, ears, or toes. Takuo Aoyagi, a Japanese bioengineer, patented the pulse oximeter in 1974. There are various types of pulse oximeters used. Many varieties of pulse oximeters are available, including Finger Tip Pulse Oximeters, Table Top Pulse Oximeters, and Non-Invasive Blood Pressure (NIBP) Pulse Oximeters. A finger oximeter, which sends a wavelength of light through the fingertips and monitors pulse rate and oxygen saturation, is commonly used.

MARKET DRIVERS:

Y-O-Y growth in the adoption of pulse oximeters is primarily driving the global pulse oximeter market.

Since a pulse oximeter is a non-invasive and simple instrument for monitoring pulse and oxygen levels, its use in various health conditions such as heart issues, respiratory problems, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disorders has expanded. Furthermore, growing health concerns and a need to remain fit accelerate the rate of pulse oximeter adoption. Furthermore, the growing focus on patient protection during recovery in healthcare environments and the need for consistent vital sign monitoring necessitates the use of a pulse oximeter. Continuous monitoring is provided in operating rooms, intensive care units, and emergency care units to determine whether there is a requirement for oxygen and satisfy the need. In chronic lung disease, the use of a pulse oximeter is commonly increased.

Technological advancements in this area are another significant growth driver of the global pulse oximeter market.

In recent years, innovative and user-friendly pulse oximeters have gained popularity. As a result, many industry leaders are collaborating to bring pulse oximeter innovation to market. Furthermore, with artificial intelligence in pulse oximeters, the market for creativity is steadily increasing. Furthermore, advancements in mobile platforms, microprocessor technologies, and wearable electronics, as well as developments in light-emitting diodes and photoelectric sensors, have improved the precision and durability of pulse oximeters.

The information obtained by a pulse oximeter is becoming more important these days. Healthcare staff can collect vital signs and other critical details from patients' homes. As a result, pulse oximeters are among the most rapidly evolving clinical solutions for treating chronic lung diseases. In addition, it reduces hospital readmissions and encourages health care providers to sustain healthy physiological outcomes in their patients who live alone, which has increased the demand for pulse oximeters.

Rising government support is also propelling the pulse oximeter industry forward.

Many governments of both developed and developing countries are taking steps to meet the market for pulse oximeters. In India, for instance, in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, the government has agreed to refund the expense of pulse oximeters obtained by Central Government Health Scheme (CGHS) beneficiaries. As a result, the government's constructive intervention is likely to fuel the pulse oximeter market growth in the coming years.

MARKET RESTRAINTS:

However, a lack of training and the high cost of pulse oximeters impede the development of the pulse oximeter market.

Impact of COVID-19 on the global pulse oximeter market:

The COVID-19 had a strong effect on the pulse oximeter market by rising demand for pulse oximeters. Coronavirus infection is most often associated with respiratory illness. As a result, it is important to monitor oxygen levels and pulse rate to treat those patients. The market for pulse oximeters rises in these circumstances. In a pandemic situation, hospitals lack beds for patients, resulting in the widespread acceptance of home quarantine solutions by governments worldwide. Patients with minor signs are left at home, isolated, and treated. Governments offer pulse oximeters to track oxygen levels at home, increasing the pulse oximeter market development.

As a result, buying at-home pulse oximeters, which are readily available at drugstores and internet retailers, has increased by more than 500 % since discovering COVID-19 cases in the United States. In addition, several physicians regard pulse oximetry as an effective tool for detecting deteriorating lung function early and addressing the underlying cause, like COVID-19. As a result, the increasing usage of these products has increased demand for these devices, leading to pulse oximeter market growth in the coming years.

Furthermore, technical advancements in fingertip models such as Bluetooth, alert systems, extensive memory, and fast data transfer are increasing performance, resulting in a market for these products in a pandemic situation. Many policymakers are now launching programs to increase the use of pulse oximeters. The Centre has provided a step-by-step guide for monitoring a COVID-19 patient's blood oxygen levels to determine if hospitalization is needed.

This research report on the global pulse oximeter market has been segmented and sub-segmented based on the type, end-use, and region.

Pulse Oximeter Market – By Type:

  • Fingertip
  • Handheld
  • Others

Based on the type, the handheld segment was the leader in the global pulse oximeter market and accounted for a market share of 41% in 2020 and is forecasted to register a healthy growth rate during the forecast period. Increase in the usage of an oximeter because these oximeters are easy to use in emergencies. However, the oxygen saturation level in a patient's blood may significantly impact the treatment's outcome. Over the forecast period, an increase in stroke cases and surgeries is expected to fuel market growth.

Pulse Oximeter Market – By End-use: 

  • Hospitals & Other Healthcare Facilities
  • Homecare

Based on the end-use type, the Hospitals & Other Healthcare Facilities segment had occupied most of the share in the global pulse oximeter market and accounted for 82.0% in 2020 and further estimated to register a promising CAGR during the forecast period.
