Market Insights

Growing Demand for Homecare Medical Devices due to Increasing Geriatric Population

The home medical devices market is estimated to grow significantly due to primary factors such as increasing development in the medical device industry and growing geriatric population. Owing to the increasing technological development, remote patient monitoring has evolved as an excellent growth strategy for medical device players. The growing geriatric population has supported the market players by demanding user-friendly, efficient, accurate, and effective medical devices in a homecare setting. Therefore, the demand for monitoring devices, mobility aids devices, and therapeutic devices among older people has significantly increased and helped in leveraging the market's growth.

Similarly, technological developments have enabled players to integrate the internet of things (IoT) with medical devices, which facilitates the connection between patients and service providers. The built-in connectivity for medical devices through mobile applications, cloud, machine-to-machine, and other options has resulted in the adoption of telemedicine and mHealth technologies. Thus, the developments have allowed medical device players to attract the geriatric population segment to offer their innovative home medical devices. It is expected that the growing population will broadly contribute to the indirect growth of the market as the countries across the world are experiencing growth in the geriatric population. Hence, the demand for home medical devices will exponentially grow in coming future. For instance, countries such as the US, Japan, South Korea, Canada, the UK, Spain, and France are significantly experiencing growth in the geriatric population.

The above-mentioned countries along with China, India, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Brazil offer significant growth opportunities for the medical device players to provide innovative devices. The improved healthcare services such as diagnostics and therapeutics have helped in declining death rates. On the other hand, the improving healthcare system is widely contributing to the growth of the geriatric population. According to the United Nations (UN) estimation, by 2060, there will 1.8 billion older people, which will account for 17.8% of the world's total population. Population growth will see the rise twice of 607 million people, i.e., 8.2% of the world's total population in 2015. Therefore, as per the estimation, the growth of the home medical devices market is expected to be driven by the increasing geriatric population during the forecast period.
