Electromedical Devices Market Size, Share and Global Trend By Application (Dental, Ophthalmology, Cardiovascular, Orthopedic), Device Type (Diagnostic Imaging Devices, Patient Assistive Devices, Surgical Devices), End Users (Clinics, Hospitals, Home Care Settings) and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

In 2017, Boston Scientific Corporation developed Watchman left atrial appendage closure device, which has the potential of reducing the risk of stroke in non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) patients. In 2018, the Food and Drug Administration approved an estimated 106 new electromedical devices as compared to 99 in 2017. These approvals include class I, class II and class III electromedical devices. The considerable hike in FDA approvals is due to extensive research and development being conducted by market players as well as research organizations. The gradual shift of market players to offer highly customer-centric products is playing a vital role in elevated production of electromedical devices in the current market scenario. 

Huge growth in investments in research and innovation of advanced electromedical devices in order to offer improved patient care and convenience is projected to boost the growth of the global electromedical devices market during the forecast period. In 2016, Vivify Health, Inc., one of the leading players in remote patient monitoring systems market, raised financial assistance of US$ 17 Mn from UPMC for developing advanced patient monitoring systems and consolidating its place in electromedical devices market.

Higher maintenance, as well as acquisition cost of electromedical devices, especially for devices with higher technical configurations, are expected to hamper the growth of the global electromedical devices market during the forecast period. For instance, the cost of highly configured MRI systems such as GE 1.5T Optima 450W, Philips 3T Ingenia, and others costs more than US$ 400,000 for installation.
