Critical care, also known as intensive care, is a necessary medical practice for the treatment of severe injuries or life-threatening medical conditions. Medical professionals in the Critical Care Unit (CCU) monitor and treat patients under controlled conditions using critical care equipment. Critical care equipment is extremely helpful in monitoring and obtaining accurate information about patients' health conditions. These machines provide life support to patients who have undergone major surgery, been injured, or have suffered life-threatening injuries.

The equipment used in the ICU ranges from the general, such as blood pressure monitors, to the highly specialized, such as bedside monitors or ventilators. ICU equipment may be used to monitor and/or treat the patient's illness. NET brand ICU equipment has raised the bar in intensive care. Continuous demand across healthcare institutions and growing technological innovations in CCE will benefit the overall market outlook during the next few years.

KEY FINDINGS

COVID 19 IMPACT

Increased Hospitalization Amid Pandemic Boosted CCE Uptake Significantly

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the global and United States Critical Care Equipment (CCE) market experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden surge in CAGR is attributable to demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

The COVID-19 pandemic benefited the global and United States Critical Care Equipment (CCE) market. Most healthcare institutions increased their use of critical care devices for treating patients hospitalized due to COVID-19, which has been one of the most significant driving factors for the global and United States Critical Care Devices market during the pandemic. Furthermore, rising demand for intensive care units as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak is expected to propel the market during the study period. Governments around the world had implemented a variety of initiatives to treat a large number of patients during COVID-19, which bolstered the market growth significantly.

LATEST TRENDS

Technological Advancements in Critical Care Equipment to Drive Market Growth 

Critical care has experienced a particularly rapid period of technological advancement in the last few decades. One of the most recent market trends worldwide is the incorporation of artificial intelligence in ventilators.

Furthermore, wireless beds that provide higher service and function levels such as caregiver and patient assistance, real-time monitoring, automated functions and positions, and data logging are being developed. As a result, such increasing technological advancements in critical care unit equipment are expected to drive the global and United States Critical Care Equipment (CCE) market growth.

• According to the U.S. Consumer Technology Association (CTA), 42% of MFPs sold in 2023 included integrated document encryption and secure authentication systems, reflecting increased enterprise focus on data security.

• As per the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association (JEITA), 31% of SMEs in Japan upgraded to cloud-ready MFPs in 2023, enhancing scan-to-cloud and mobile print functionality.

DRIVING FACTORS

Rise in Number of CCE Usage to Drive Market Growth

The global and United States Critical Care Equipment (CCE) market is expected to expand due to factors such as a rise in critical care equipment usage including Intensive Care Unit (ICU) beds, an increase in the incidence of chronic diseases, and an increase in the geriatric population.

Furthermore, rising government and private sector investment in healthcare infrastructure are also propelling this market forward. The presence of a large geriatric population base, which is prone to a number of chronic and life-threatening health conditions, represents a massive opportunity for market players globally. The aforementioned factors will augment the market forecast over the projected period.

• According to the European Union’s Digital Economy Report 2023, 48% of European enterprises deployed cloud-connected MFPs in support of hybrid and remote work environments.

• India’s Ministry of Electronics & IT (MeitY) reported a 29% rise in MFP integration across public sector offices in 2023 as part of national e-governance upgrades.

Increasing Geriatric Population Base to Create New Opportunities

The burgeoning elderly population is slated to boost CCE demand significantly over the next few years. Considering that elderly individuals are more susceptible to various chronic and life-threatening health conditions, the hospitalization rates of geriatric population has increased tenfold in the past decade or so. Continuously rising geriatric population and the increasing rate of hospital admissions will create promising opportunities for the market in the future.  

RESTRAINING FACTORS

Spike in the Cost of CCE to Limit Market Growth

Despite the increasing population and disease burden, certain factors are impeding the market growth. One such factor is the higher cost of critical care equipment.

Because of the high cost of the equipment, many healthcare providers in developing countries rely on purchasing refurbished equipment for their facilities. This factor significantly impedes the market growth. For example, as per the Government of India, mid-sized private hospitals, which account for more than 90% of all healthcare providers in India, cannot afford expensive systems such as patient monitoring equipment and ventilators.

• According to the European Environment Agency (EEA), electronic waste from discarded printers increased by 8% in 2023, leading to tighter disposal policies and delayed procurement of new MFPs.

• The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) found that 22% of American enterprises postponed MFP replacement in 2023 due to strict internal policies on minimizing e-waste.
