EEG and EMG Equipment Market Size, Share and Global Trend By Product (Electroencephalogram, Electromyography), By Modality (Portable, Standalone), By End User (Hospitals & Clinics, Ambulatory Surgery Centers (ASCs), Diagnostic Centers, Home care Settings, Others), and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

Electroencephalogram (EEG) and electromyography (EMG) refers to the diagnostic procedures or tests that is undertaken to assess or detect the electrical activity in the brain using the aid of electrodes and is also undertaken to assess the health of the muscles and the motor neurons that control them. An EEG is primarily undertaken for the diagnosis and treatment of neurological disorders such as especially epilepsy, and others such as brain tumors, strokes, brain damage, encephalopathy and sleep disorders.

An EMG is undertaken for the diagnosis, treatment and ruling out of a variety of disorders such as muscle disorders such as dystrophy, polymyositis , etc., diseases affecting the connection of nerve and the muscle like myasthenia gravis, diseases affecting the nerve root such as herniated disk, and diseases affecting the motor neuron in the brain/spinal cord like polio, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, etc.. Both the diagnostic procedures of EEG and EMG are non-invasive to minimally invasive in nature leading to very low risk of further complications. Some of the primary components of EEG and EMG equipment includes electrodes, amplifiers, photic flash and computer & software. The critical role of the EEG and EMG equipment in the treatment and management of serious and chronic disorders is anticipated to contribute to the positive growth of the market.

The global EEG and EMG equipment market is anticipated to grow, owing to a number of factors such as increased prevalence of neurological and motor disorders such as brain tumors and muscular dystrophy & sleep disorders. Other positively contributing factors includes increasing demand for minimally invasive procedures, increasing geriatric population, increasing technological advancements, increasing awareness of neurological & motor disorders and rising demand for preventive care through regular medical examinations. According to the Epilepsy Foundation, epilepsy is the fourth most common neurological disorder and the average annual incidence in the U.S. is estimated to be 150,000 individuals or 48 for every 100,000 individuals and the incidence is higher for older adults and younger children. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the incidence of Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy (DBMD) was estimated to be 1 in 7,250 males of age 5 – 24 years. These trends combined with the other factors are expected to positively drive the market growth.

The factors limiting the growth of the global EEG and EMG equipment market include abnormal results & sampling errors in the diagnostic procedures and the poor spatial resolution of the EEG.

Regional Analysis

North America is anticipated to hold a considerable share of the global EEG and EMG equipment market owing to increasing adoption of non-invasive surgical techniques, the rise in prevalence of chronic diseases. Asia Pacific holds potential for EEG and EMG equipment owing to the rise in prevalence of chronic diseases and increasing need for safe surgical methods. According to World Health Organization, in 2016, approximately 30 countries in Africa and Asia Pacific region had a shortfall of EEG and EMG equipment, which indicates the huge potential for such systems in these regions and is expected to drive the growth of EEG and EMG equipment in the forecast period.
