MEA Fetal & Neonatal Monitoring Market Analysis
The MEA Fetal & Neonatal Monitoring Market is expected to register a CAGR of 6.80% during the forecast period.
Fetal monitoring devices are crucial in gynecology and obstetrics, providing real-time insights into the fetus's health during labor and delivery. Similarly, neonatal devices are essential in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), where specialized equipment and monitoring systems are tailored to the specific needs of newborns.
The prevalence of preterm births has increased in recent decades in these Middle Eastern countries. These preterm newborns are found prone to diseases and infections, which lead to death. For instance, according to the study published in the JAMA network in May 2022, neonatal preterm birth increased by a mean of 2.09% per year in Southern Sub-Saharan Africa. This high preterm death can be reduced using neonatal monitoring devices, which are expected to drive the market.
The growing awareness initiatives by the government and private organizations to create importance in fetal and neonatal care are expected to contribute to market growth over the forecast period. For instance, in November 2022, the Ministry of Public Health in Lebanon, collaborating with UNICEF, launched the National Newborn and Prematurity Campaign. The campaign aims to educate the public about the vital importance of providing quality healthcare to newborns and premature babies and highlight the crucial role families and healthcare providers play. Hence, these campaigns on newborns who should be kept under surveillance using monitoring equipment increase the demand for monitoring devices and equipment in the region and are expected to boost the market's growth over the forecast period.
Thus, a growing number of preterm birth and awareness initiatives by the government and private players is expected to contribute to market growth over the forecast period. However, the stringent regulatory procedures in the region are expected to hinder the development of the market over the forecast period.
MEA Fetal & Neonatal Monitoring Market Trends
Cardiac Monitors Under Neonatal Monitoring Segment is Expected to Have Highest CAGR in the Market Over the Forecast Period
Cardiac monitoring is a practical, noninvasive diagnostic tool to monitor the vast array of neonatal patient conditions in emergency departments. These cardiac monitors are used to measure the heart rate in neonates. The major factors that drive the segment's growth are increasing preterm or low birth weight, which leads to alterations in heart rate. In addition, the new government initiatives in the region are expected to boost the market over the study period.
The growing burden of prematurity delivery across the MEA region is expected to contribute to segment growth over the forecast period. For instance, according to the study report published by Frontiers in Global Women's Health in June 2022, over nine times more African babies than European babies are in danger of dying as a result of premature delivery complications. These complications include abnormal heart rate, which should be monitored using cardiac monitoring devices to avoid the premature death of neonates.
In addition, as per the same above source, preterm birth was prevalent among women admitted for labor at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital, Ghana. Hence, to avoid deaths and monitor heart complications in highly prevalent premature neonates, there is an increased demand for cardiac monitors, which is expected to boost the market growth over the study period.
Furthermore, the new partnerships among the market players are expected to drive the market due to the widespread applications in the region. For instance, in February 2024, the new Centre of Excellence for Pre-natal Pediatrics at Latifa Hospital, supported by the Al Tayer Family, would manage high-risk pregnancies and deliver specialized care and monitoring for expecting mothers. Thus, the new partnerships help to increase the cardiac monitoring applications to various healthcare facilities, which are expected to propel the market's growth over the forecast period.
South Africa is Expected to Have Highest CAGR in the Market Over the Forecast Period
South Africa has made significant strides toward lowering maternal and infant fatalities using various healthcare developments that involve monitoring devices. The increasing adoption of various fetal and neonatal monitoring devices, along with increasing preterm or low birth weight babies in the country, likely increases the demand for monitoring devices and is expected to drive the market's growth over the study period.
Furthermore, the high risk of birth defects in the country is expected to increase the demand for monitoring devices. For instance, the meta-analysis report published by SAGE Open Medicine in September 2022 reported that the pooled prevalence of omphalocele and gastroschisis in sub-Saharan Africa is high. Therefore, perinatal screening programs for congenital malformations ought to be implemented, which will likely raise the demand for fetal and neonatal monitoring devices and boost the market over the forecast period.
Moreover, premature and newborn deaths are high in the country, which can be managed using monitoring of devices in healthcare facilities. For instance, as per the report published by the World Health Organization (WHO) in January 2022, Sub-Saharan Africa had the highest neonatal mortality rate in the world. Compared to children born in high-income nations, children born in sub-Saharan Africa have a 10-fold higher risk of dying within the first month of life. Hence, the efficient usage of monitoring devices decreases neonatal deaths, which is expected to boost the market over the forecast period.
