The market for patient monitoring and diagnostic equipment is expected to grow exponentially in the coming years. There are many factors at the source of this growth including an aging demographic driving an increased demand for monitoring solutions. Technological advancement in wireless connectivity is driving a shift in the accessibility and analysis of patient data.

Aging Population

An aging population vulnerable to chronic disease is driving the market. The world population is aging. People are living longer with good health, but many are also living longer with chronic disease — putting a strain on healthcare systems and resources. According to the World Health Organization, the number of people aged 65 or older is projected to grow from an estimated 524 million in 2010 to nearly 1.5 billion in 2050, with most of the increase in developing countries.

IoT

By integrating IoT features into medical devices, it promises to greatly improve the quality and effectiveness of healthcare, bringing especially high-value care for the elderly, patients with chronic conditions, and those requiring constant supervision. Devices today monitor all sorts of patient behavior – from glucose monitors to fetal monitors to electrocardiograms to blood pressure. The possibilities offered by the healthcare IoT to lower costs and improve patient care are almost limitless.

Wearables

The clinical application of wearable medical technology is evolving fast as technology companies are partnering with healthcare organizations to help patients and clinicians make better decisions. Though many new devices are being developed, there is still a challenge to ensure that the devices can aggregate and share data, and communicate reliably and securely.
