Segmental Insights
Product Type Insights
The segment of handheld pulse oximeters held the largest market share in 2022 and is projected to experience significant growth during the forecast period. This can be attributed to the high prevalence of respiratory diseases, increasing hospitalizations, and the convenience of using handheld devices in emergency situations. Furthermore, technological advancements in terms of accuracy, safety, and data transfer capabilities are driving the adoption of this segment. To stay competitive, leading market players are introducing new products with enhanced features. For instance, in September 2020, Masimo announced the U.S. FDA clearance of the Rad-G handheld pulse oximeter.
On the other hand, the fingertip pulse oximeters segment is expected to exhibit the highest growth rate throughout the forecast period. This growth is driven by the increasing demand for continuous patient monitoring at home settings, growing patient awareness, and the rising trend of preventive healthcare.
Sensor Type
In 2022, the disposable sensor segment emerged as the primary revenue driver due to its non-invasive monitoring capabilities and lightweight nature, enhancing patient satisfaction. Additionally, disposable sensors exhibit remarkable flexibility and biocompatibility with soft materials, making them ideal for long-term monitoring. Furthermore, the utilization of disposable sensor oximeters has been further accelerated by their superior ability to prevent cross-contamination and healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). Noteworthy industry leaders offering disposable sensors include Honeywell International Inc. and NIHON KOHDEN CORPORATION, among others.
Moreover, reusable probes ranked as the second-highest revenue contributor in 2022. The robust demand for reusable probes in intensive care units, their compatibility with commonly used monitoring devices, distinctive product designs, and precise measurement results are expected to drive segment growth. Furthermore, the inherent ability of reusable probes to withstand mechanical stress and facilitate ease of cleaning has significantly contributed to their widespread adoption.
