PORTABLE AND WEARABLE DIALYSIS DEVICE MARKET OVERVIEW

The global Portable and Wearable Dialysis Device Market was valued is expected to rise to USD 0.26 billion in 2025, eventually reaching USD 0.424 billion by 2034, expanding at a CAGR of 6.6% from 2025 to 2034.

With the aid of portable dialysis equipment, the burden of disease is reduced or eliminated through dietary restrictions. Nevertheless, the medical device industry devotes less attention to dialysis equipment despite the fact that it saves lives. Portable dialysis equipment was developed to be utilised at home or while travelling. This device has the potential to dramatically improve quality of life by allowing patients to undergo dialysis while continuing with their daily activities. Disassembled dialysis machines that are attached to a belt worn around the chest serve as wearable artificial kidneys.

Wearable dialysis machines are similar to wearable artificial kidneys. With increasing number of patients with ESRD along with limited availability of of organ donors, the portable and wearable dialysis device market is expected to rise in the forthcoming years.

KEY FINDINGS

COVID-19 Impact

Rapid Shift in Demand and Disrupted Supply Chains Hampered the Market

The sudden spike in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over. The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with portable and wearable dialysis device experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels.

Dialysis is one of several aspects of health care delivery that have been under strain from the COVID-19 outbreak. Changes in the availability of equipment and supplies were necessary for both chronic dialysis patients who need cohort or isolation dialysis and those with acute renal impairment brought on by COVID-19. The rapid shift in demand has made it more difficult to design capacity since there is little information on incidence. These factors limited the portable and wearable dialysis device market growth during the COVID-19 pandemic period. However, post-pandemic, the market is set to recover as dialysis procedures resume.

LATEST TRENDS

Partnerships and Collaborations Among the Companies to Propel the Market Growth

In order to increase their reach and product ranges globally and satisfy the rising demand, businesses frequently use product launches and expansions as a strategy. The market players involved in the sale of portable and wearable dialysis equipment use partnerships and collaborations to increase their worldwide client base while also preserving their brand recognition. The adoption of such strategies by market players to introduce novel dialysis devices that are portable and wearable will positively influence the market in the forthcoming years.

• According to the U.S. National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), over 810,000 people in the U.S. live with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), which is pushing manufacturers to increase wearable dialysis device launches by more than 25% in the past five years.

• As per the European Renal Association (ERA), collaborations between medical device firms and research institutes for wearable artificial kidney development have increased by 18% since 2020, boosting innovation speed.

PORTABLE AND WEARABLE DIALYSIS DEVICE MARKET SEGMENTATION

• By Type Analysis

By type, market is segmented into peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis. The peritoneal dialysis segment will dominate the market in the coming years.

• By Application Analysis

Based on applications, the market is classified into home care, dialysis center and other. The home care segment will lead the global share through 2028.

DRIVING FACTORS

Ease of Use of Portable and Wearable Dialysis Devices to Accelerate the Market Demand

Current dialysis techniques not only strain a nation's healthcare system greatly but also interrupt the lives of patients. Dialysis patients must modify their daily routine and way of life to accommodate the therapy's timetable. As a result, efforts are being made to create a wearable artificial kidney that would enable people to undergo longer, more frequent or continuous dialysis treatments while on the road without stopping what they are doing at home or at work. As a result, the quality- of- life effects of the treatment could be lessened while the patient's health may improve. Therefore, it is anticipated that the wearable artificial kidney will be adopted quickly, which will fuel the portable and wearable dialysis device market share in the coming years.

Increase in Demographic Population and Rise in Renal Diseases to Boost the Demand

Over the projection period, the market for portable dialysis equipment would rise primarily due to the increasingly aging demographic population and the rising frequency of renal diseases. The use of home haemodialysis reduces the need for hospital supplies since patients and their caregivers may perform cannulation and dialysis therapy monitoring in the convenience of their own homes at a lower cost. The home haemodialysis equipment market is expanding more quickly thanks to technological developments in portable equipment. Such factors will ensure a steady growth period for the market over the next few years.

• According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the global population aged 60 years and above will reach 2.1 billion by 2050, with over 15% of them at risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD), driving higher demand for portable dialysis systems.

• Data from the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) shows that home dialysis adoption has risen by nearly 12% annually since 2019 due to patient convenience and reduced hospital dependency.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

High Cost of Equipment and Technological Difficulties to Hinder the Market.

Patients are discouraged from undergoing home hemodialysis therapy because of the rising cost of portable dialysis equipment and the absence of insurance support for treatment coverage, which might delay the market acceptance of portable dialysis machines over the projected period. The market's expansion is also hampered by reimbursement issues in developing markets and technological difficulties in the development of WAK and WDD. These factors could limit the portable and wearable dialysis device market growth in the future.

• According to the International Society of Nephrology (ISN), the average price of advanced portable dialysis machines exceeds USD 15,000, making them unaffordable for up to 42% of patients in low- and middle-income nations.

• The Global Kidney Health Atlas reports that in more than 50% of low-income countries, reimbursement policies for wearable dialysis devices remain absent, limiting accessibility.
