Market Trends of Blood Pressure Cuffs Industry
This section covers the major market trends shaping the Blood Pressure Cuffs Market according to our research experts:
Automated Blood Pressure Cuffs Segment is Expected to Hold a Significant Market Share Over the Forecast Period
Automated blood pressure cuffs use an automated system to analyze blood pressure with the help of a sensor. An oscillometer is a sensor used in automatic cuffs to detect the return of arterial blood flow. Factors such as increasing obesity and product launches are expected to increase segmental growth.
Various research studies provide insight into the prevalence of obesity. For instance, an article published in the Journal of Pediatric Nursing in February 2021 indicated that the disease of childhood obesity has risen to high levels in United States youth with the fastest rise seen in severe obesity. The article also showed that obesity is a risk factor for increased severity of hypertension. Since obesity increases the risk of cardiac diseases and hypertension, so frequent monitoring is needed which may contribute to increasing demand for monitoring devices and so do the blood pressure cuffs.
Another article presented in the Journal of Epidemiology and Population Health in February 2021 indicated that China is during a severely alarming increase in obesity, particularly abdominal obesity. The rise in obesity rates in the country is expected to propel the growth of the automatic blood pressure cuffs segment over the forecast period as it increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases which requires constant monitoring.
Furthermore, various research studies have provided insight into the advantages of automated blood pressure cuff devices. For instance, in May 2022, an article published in Springer Nature Limited stated that most automated blood pressure monitoring devices analyze the pressure waveform signals during the period of cuff deflation, although some devices analyze signals during the inflation period. As per the same source, even though the devices have been using the same methods to analyze blood pressure, the technology has vastly improved in new devices which have minimized the errors and made the device accurate. Thus, such advantages in the accuracy of the devices in the segment are expected to grow over the forecast period.
Thus, owing to the factors such as advancement in the technology and increasing need for blood pressure monitoring is expected to drive the segment growth over the forecast period.
North America is Expected to Dominate the Market Over the Forecast Period
North America is expected to dominate the overall market throughout the forecast period. The United States is expected to have a significant market share over the forecast period. The major factors contributing to the growth of the North American market are the increasing prevalence of hypertension, growing demand for blood monitoring devices, a strong presence of market players, and well-established healthcare infrastructure.
Obesity is one of the primary reasons for hypertension thus increasing obesity is likely to increase the market growth. For instance, according to the World Population Review data published in September 2022, approximately 29.4% of the people in Canada were affected by obesity. Thus, the increasing prevalence of obesity is expected to increase the adoption of blood pressure cuffs in the region as obesity increase the risk of hypertension and cardiac disorders which require constant monitoring. Similarly, as per the data from the American Heart Association 2022, in Mexico, 56.1% of adults have high levels of LDL-C, or bad cholesterol, which is thought to be the primary risk factor for cardiovascular disease. With such a high prevalence, patient care such as constant monitoring in the country is expected to increase in terms of prevention as well as treatment which will ultimately boost the demand for blood pressure cuffs in the country during the forecast period.
Various initiatives in the region are expected to increase the market growth. For instance, in June 2022, New York State legislators launched the Blood Pressure Cuff program to give expecting moms blood pressure monitors to manage hypertension, one of the main preventable causes of maternal death. Preeclampsia begins to manifest after week 20 of pregnancy. Untreated or undiagnosed, this illness can cause organ damage, strokes, convulsions, premature birth, and even death. Thus, such initiatives are expected to increase the demand for blood pressure cuffs which is expected to increase the market growth.
Thus, the abovementioned factors such as the increasing prevalence of disorders and initiatives by public organizations are likely to drive the blood pressure cuff market in the region during the forecast period.
