AUTOMATIC EXTERNAL DEFIBRILLATOR MARKET REPORT OVERVIEW

The global Automatic External Defibrillator Market was valued at USD 3.061 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 3.58 billion in 2025, steadily progressing to USD 12.58 billion by 2033, with a CAGR of 17.01% from 2025 to 2033.

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with automatic external defibrillator experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden decline in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over. 

An apparatus that automates the delivery of an electric shock to the heart is an external defibrillator (AED). Someone who is having cardiac arrest may benefit from this shock by regaining a regular heartbeat. AEDs are crucial because they can be used to treat sudden cardiac arrest, which, if not treated right away, can result in death.

Over the projected period, the fully automatic external defibrillator market is anticipated to rise due to the rising incidence of cardiac arrest cases and public safety awareness. The global fully automatic external defibrillator (HeartStart Home Defibrillation System) market size is also anticipated to be driven by the healthcare sector's rapid technical improvements as well as consumers' rising demand for technologically advanced goods. For instance, the HeartStart home monitoring system from Philips Healthcare was created to assist people monitor their health using mobile devices like smartphones or tablets. It offers real-time notifications on heart rate measures and blood pressure readings.

COVID-19 IMPACT

Market to Witness a Downfall Owing to Restrictions

Since supply chains have been disrupted owing to international restrictions and utilization has decreased due to worldwide government lockdowns, the outbreak of coronavirus sickness (COVID-19) did act as a massive restriction on almost every market in 2020. Extremely contagious COVID-19 is characterized by flu-like symptoms include fever, coughing, and breathing difficulties. Following its discovery in Wuhan, the virus has subsequently spread to North America, West Europe, and Asia. The Automatic External Defibrillator industry is one of many that Covid-19 has had a great impact on.

Automated external defibrillator manufacturers are creating strategies to protect their industry in the event of COVID-19 pandemic-related emergencies. While complying to all safety guidelines recommended by the local government officials, they are concentrated on bolstering their supply networks and carrying on with routine manufacturing activities.

LATEST TRENDS

Product to Help People in Cases of Emergencies

When someone has had a cardiac arrest at home, a completely automatic external defibrillator is used in an emergency. This could result in death within minutes after suffering from sudden cardiac arrest if it is not addressed right away. A fully automatic external defibrillator, which may be purchased by people who have successfully completed the necessary training on how to use it securely and correctly while providing the necessary treatment, may be used in such situations by family members or friends. This feature of the equipment has provided relief in households and it is anticipated to boost automatic external defibrillator market growth.

DRIVING FACTORS

Rise in Prevalence of Cardiac Arrest Fuels Demand for Automated External Defibrillators

The popularity of automated external defibrillators is growing as a result of its capacity to help restore abnormal heart rhythms by shocking the heart with electricity. Ventricular fibrillation (VF) and pulseless ventricular tachycardia are two non-standard cardiac rhythms that these devices are designed to detect and treat (pulseless VT). In the next years, it is predicted that increased use of this device in treating patients who have had an abrupt cardiac arrest would present potential for income generating. Furthermore, the market may see profitable opportunities as the number of persons addicted to smoking and alcohol rises.

Offering Training Programs Intended for Device Use at Workplaces to Support Sales in Market

Various end users, including emergency medical services, hospitals, public access, workplaces, households, and private cardiac clinics, employ automated external defibrillators. The growth in working stress levels around the world is predicted to drive demand for this technology in office settings. By teaching people how to use automated external defibrillators correctly, tragic events like cardiac arrest deaths might be avoided. As a result, many training initiatives are being run to ensure that these gadgets are used correctly in offices.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

Legal Issues Regarding the Equipment to Impede Market Expansion

Legal concerns are raised by the growing usage of home and public defibrillators. For instance, the victim may file a lawsuit against first aid personnel who use an AED on someone who refuses to be revived. Defibrillator usage that results in a damage to a bystander, such as a shock or burn, may also give rise to a malpractice claim against a physician or a personal liability claim against a private individual.

AUTOMATIC EXTERNAL DEFIBRILLATOR MARKET REGIONAL INSIGHTS

North America to Dominate the Market Due to Increase in Cardiac Arrests

The global market was controlled by North America and owns largest automatic external defibrillator market share. This can be ascribed to an increase in cardiac arrests, greater product awareness, and the existence of reputable medical facilities in this area. The market for FAEBs is also anticipated to be driven by the rising adoption rate of technologically improved medical devices over the forecast period. Due to variables like expanding target populations and an area with improved healthcare infrastructure, Asia Pacific is predicted to grow profitably over the next eight years. Due to the high senior population base, which is predisposed to CVDs and thus raises their risk factor for sudden cardiac arrest, the market is expected to rise significantly over the forecast period (SCA).
