The portable oxygen concentrators market is expected to reach US$ 2,934.90 million by 2027 from US$ 1,547.33 million in 2019; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 8.4% during 2020-2027.

Portable oxygen concentrators (POCs) are used to provide oxygen to patients who need greater oxygen levels to respire than that available in ambient air. These devices are comparable to concentrators with home-based oxygen concentrators/tanks (OC) but are smaller and can be transported easily. These devices enable patients to carry their oxygen tanks along with them and help them continue with their usual activities, thereby conferring the freedom to pursue a normal lifestyle. Factors such as the rising number of COVID-19 cases and increasing prevalence of respiratory diseases worldwide fuel the Portable Oxygen Concentrators market growth. However, the high cost associated with these devices hinders the growth of the market.

Market Insights

Rising Number of COVID-19 Cases Worldwide

The portable oxygen concentrators are used in the treatment of chronic obstructive respiratory diseases and in COVID-19 cases as a replacement of respiratory device ventilator. The novel coronavirus can cause a significant respiratory distress and majority of the patients who do die are a result of extreme respiratory failure. The oxygen concentrators prove to be very helpful in providing supplemental oxygen or relieve breathing difficulty thereby expediting body’s healing process. The governments around the world are arranging oxygen concentrators to COVID-19 patients under home isolation to manage with sudden drop in oxygen among these patients. For instance, On June 22nd, 2020, the Chief Minister of Delhi, India made arrangements to send oxygen concentrators to patients suffering with COVID-19. With a predicted shortfall of hospital ventilators needed to treat people diagnosed with COVID-19 disease with breathing problems, the US FDA has authorized the use of oxygen concentrators and similar devices to help cover the forecasted shortage. Also stated that hospitals and other healthcare providers could repurpose (breathing) machines including oxygen concentrators as ventilators. Thus, increasing prevalence of COVID-19 cases, scarcity of ventilators for COVID-19 patients, and respiratory disorders are driving the portable oxygen concentrators devices market.

Product-Based Insights

Based on product, the portable oxygen concentrators market has been segmented into continuous flow and pulse flow. In 2019, the continuous flow segment accounted for a larger share in the market, and it is projected to retain its dominance, in terms of share, till 2027. This growth is attributed to the high penetration of portable oxygen concentrators with continuous flow, rapid technological advancements, and ongoing use of this equipment in oxygen therapies. On the other hand, the market for pulse flow is expected to grow at a higher CAGR owing to factors such as better efficiency, short-pulse delivery, and travel friendly as well as easy functionality.
