"Designing Growth Strategies is in our DNA"
The rising adoption of telehealth technologies has boosted the adoption of sensor-enabled wearable devices. Wearable patches can be a useful tool in monitoring and drug delivery to the patient. They can help in disease monitoring and management of geriatric patients, thus aiding in clinical decision making. Sensors embedded in the patches can help in temperature, blood pressure, glucose, and cardiac monitoring, eliminating the need for visiting hospitals frequently. Hospitals and healthcare professionals are gradually adopting remote patient monitoring. According to the On-Demand Virtual Care Benchmark Survey Report, 46.4% of the respondent physicians use remote patient monitoring in the U.S. This is likely to favor the expansion of the market during the forecast period.
Technological advancements in wearable technologies and the rapid adoption of remote patient monitoring are prominent factors driving the global wearable patches market growth. In May 2020, Koninklijke Philips N.V. received FDA approval for Philips Biosensor BX100, a smart patch for measuring vital signs for COVID-19 patients. The launch of similar products is anticipated to favor the expansion of the market. Furthermore, the rising prevalence of diseases and active government support are expected to augment the growth of the market.
However, poor infrastructure and technological barriers in low and middle-income countries are expected to hamper the growth of the market.
