Asia-Pacific Remote Patient Monitoring Systems Market Size (2024 - 2029)

APAC Remote Patient Monitoring Market Analysis

The Asia-Pacific Remote Patient Monitoring Systems Market size is estimated at USD 0.86 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 2.06 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 19.28% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

The COVID-19 pandemic placed enormous pressure on hospitals and healthcare systems that were understaffed and overworked. Remote patient monitoring technology helped patients remain safe within their homes while reducing stress on hospitals, emergency rooms, and front-line healthcare workers during the pandemic, thereby positively impacting the market. in February 2022, Sino Group supplied residential care homes handling mild COVID-19 cases with 500 units of a remote monitoring system by Belun Technology Company through its charitable arm, Ng Teng Fong Charitable Foundation. To deliver Belun's remoVital remote monitoring system, the group collaborated with the Social Welfare Department and the Hong Kong Council of Social Service (HKCSS). Companies were expected to invest in RPM devices to adapt to their ready-to-work protocols during the pandemic as most COVID-19 patients were asymptomatic. COVID has boosted the adoption of remote patient monitoring system and although currently COVID-19 cases have been subsidized, the increasing burden of other chronic diseases are expected to lead to stable growth of the market in the next 3-4 years.

Certain factors that are propelling the growth of the market are the rising incidences of chronic diseases due to lifestyle changes, the increase in the aging population, the need to contain healthcare expenditure, the demand for home-based monitoring devices, and ease of use and portability of devices to promote the growth. For instance, according to the United Nations Population Fund, 2022 statistics, in China, 70% of the living population is aged 15-64 in 2022. In addition, as per the same source, 13% of the population is aged 65 years and above in 2022. Thus, the rising geriatric populations are more prone to develop chronic diseases which require proper monitoring and diagnosis which is expected to increase the adoption of remote patient monitoring to regularly monitor their condition and status, thereby propelling the growth of the studied market. Additionally, China carries a heavy burden of chronic diseases, such as cancer, obesity, diabetes, and others, which are expected to drive the growth of the studied market. For instance, as per the 2022 update from the International Diabetic Federation (IDF), approximately 537 million adults (20-79 years) are living with diabetes. The total number of people living with diabetes is projected to rise to 643 million by 2030 and 783 million by 2045. Such an increase in chronic diseases is expected to drive the demand for remote patient monitoring systems, thereby driving the growth of the market.

Additionally, the increasing product approvals in this region are also expected to contribute to the market's growth. For instance, in March 2021 Dozee launched a contactless remote patient monitoring solution for solutions in India. The Dosee Pro solution featured an AI-powered triaging system that enables remote monitoring of patients outside of the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).

Thus the factors such as the rising incidences of chronic diseases due to lifestyle changes, the increase in the aging population, the need to contain healthcare expenditure, the demand for home-based monitoring devices, and ease of use and portability of devices to promote the growth are expected to drive the growth of the market over the forecast period. However, resistance from healthcare industry professionals and stringent regulatory frameworks is expected to restrain the growth of the market.
