Cerebral Somatic Oximeters Market Size

Cerebral Somatic Oximeters Market Analysis

The Cerebral Somatic Oximeters Market size is estimated at USD 191.21 million in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 258.30 million by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 6.23% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

• The cerebral somatic oximeters market was significantly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Since the onset of the pandemic, elective procedures were been postponed or canceled in many countries, along with disruptions in the supply chain of medical devices, especially in developing nations. For instance, an article published in the Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery in May 2022 stated that the hospital staff at Main University Hospital, Egypt, were instructed to postpone new admissions from cardiac surgery outpatient clinics and to perform surgeries exclusively for patients currently admitted and emergencies during the pandemic. However, the market started to recover as non-essential medical procedures resumed gradually over the last two years around the world.
• The market for cerebral somatic oximeters is expected to witness healthy growth over the forecast period. The increase is majorly attributed to the rising incidence of neurological diseases and the growing adoption of cerebral oximeters in developed economies such as North America and Europe.
• According to an article published in the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) in April 2022, hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is reported in 1 to 6 per 1000 live births in developed countries and 26 per 1000 live births in developing countries. The high burden of such neurological diseases propels the demand for cerebral somatic oximeters to detect the oxygen levels in the brain, thereby boosting market growth.
• In addition, cerebral oximetry is used routinely in some neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). For instance, as per an article published in Frontiers in Pediatrics Journal in April 2022, cerebral oximetry is utilized in the context of cardiac surgery and is used almost universally as a clinical routine in the perioperative care of newborn infants with congenital heart disease and neonatology. As per the article, currently, a clinical trial is ongoing to assess the importance of cerebral oximetry in severe brain injury in the neonatal department. The rising research studies are expected to propel the utility of cerebral somatic oximeters in the detection of oxygen levels of various brain and cardiac diseases during the forecast period.
• Furthermore, the strategic initiatives by market players, such as technological advancement leading to product approvals and launches, along with partnerships, are also contributing to the market growth during the forecast period. For instance, in December 2021, Medtronic PLC received Food Drug Administration (FDA) 510(k) approval for its INVOS 7100 cerebral/somatic oximetry system for pediatric indications. The INVOS system helps pediatric clinicians make time-sensitive decisions regarding ventilation, hemodynamic management, and resuscitation for neonates, premature infants, children, and other patients treated by them. Therefore, the launch of the technologically advanced cerebral oximeters for the pediatric population is expected to widen its customer base and add growth to the cerebral somatic oximeters market during the forecast period.
• Therefore, owing to the aforementioned factors, such as the high burden of neurological diseases and technologically advanced product approvals, the cerebral somatic oximeters market is anticipated to witness growth over the analysis period. However, the high cost of the device due to the expensive sensors used in the cerebral oximeters is estimated to restrain the market growth.
