• Additionally, wired connection urine flow meters may be perceived as more cost-effective in terms of initial purchase and maintenance costs, particularly for healthcare facilities with limited budgets, hence may result in the increasing demand and segmental growth.

Based on product, the portable segment is likely to cross USD 23.2 million by 2032.

• As the population ages, there is a growing prevalence of urological conditions such as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and urinary incontinence among older adults. Portable urine flow meters cater to the needs of elderly patients who may have mobility limitations or prefer the convenience of home-based monitoring or home healthcare model. This increase in aging population is propelling the segmental growth.  
• Additionally, with an increasing emphasis on home-based healthcare and remote patient monitoring devices, there is a growing demand for portable medical devices that allow patients to monitor their health conveniently from home, due to which their demand is increasing in the market.

Based on application, the BPH segment held leading revenue share in 2023 and is anticipated to reach USD 12.6 million by 2032.

• The application of urine flow meters with cystometry has facilitated advancements in addressing the benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) condition. The integration of data obtained from urine flow meters and cystometry allows for a comprehensive evaluation of bladder dynamics and voiding function. This integrated approach empowers healthcare professionals to effectively differentiate between obstructive and non-obstructive causes of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in patients with BPH, thereby guiding treatment decisions more effectively and increasing the demand for these diagnostic tools.
• Additionally, serial measurements using urine flow meters and optional cystometry enable the monitoring of treatment response over time. By tracking changes in urinary flow parameters and bladder function parameters, healthcare professionals can assess the effectiveness of treatment interventions and make necessary adjustments as needed. This streamlined treatment monitoring procedure attracts increased number of healthcare professionals and patients and contributes to the growth of the segment.
