Market Trends of Global Nurse Call Systems Industry
This section covers the major market trends shaping the Nurse Call Systems Market according to our research experts:
The Wireless Nurse Call Systems Segment is Expected to Account for Significant Market Share Over the Forecast Period
Under the modality segmentation of the nurse call systems market, the wireless nurse call systems segment is expected to have a significant market size over the forecast period. The wireless nurse call systems in hospitals are crucial systems that enable and ensure proper patient care by the nurses. These systems are necessary, and the benefits make a legitimate difference. Wireless nurse call and notification systems are required to be very quick, accurate, and reliable. Wireless nurse call systems are gaining more popularity because of the ease and comfort of operating. In the wireless nurse call systems, there are no wires, and nurses have the option of wearing a device to provide immediate alerts to the patients. The segment is expected to have the largest market share due to the growing awareness of wireless nurse call systems and the increasing number of geriatric patients who are using them.
The launch of new products in the segment is expected to boost the market growth during the study period. For instance, in August 2021, RF Technologies launched the Quick Response Pro nurse call system, a UL 1069 certified system which integrates with numerous devices to enable quick staff notification, including corridor dome lights, sharp look displays, and strobe light with sounder, and multi-color zone lights.
The benefits of wireless nurse call systems boost their adoption rates, which is also expected to boost the market. The article "Novel Wireless Nurse Call Systems Enable Multi Bed Connectivity Across Hefty Care Facilities Infrastructure" published in March 2020, stated that wireless nurse call systems are self-sufficient and require no preparatory work such as wiring and installation and is identified as apt measures that can connect both singular and multiple hospital beds to a standard wireless reception point. Thus, due to the above-mentioned factors, the studied segment is expected to grow during the study period.
North America Region is Expected to Dominate the Nurse Call Systems Market Over the Forecast Period
North America is expected to dominate the nurse call systems market over the forecast period due to the well-established healthcare system and the high adoption of digital healthcare in the region. In this region, the United States is expected to have the largest market share owing to better reimbursement facilities, such as Medicare.
The demand for nurse call systems is expected to increase in the country due to the increasing burden of hospital admissions associated with the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases and the geriatric population, which is driving the market. For instance, according to the report "2020 PROFILE OF OLDER AMERICANS" published in May 2021, the population aged 65 years and above was 54.1 million in 2019. Approximately 30 million were women, and 24.1 million were men. Also, as per Cancer facts and figures 2022, published by the American Cancer Society, there will be an estimated 1.9 million new cancer cases diagnosed and 609,360 cancer deaths in the United States. Thus, these results are expected to promote the adaptability of nurse call systems, thus driving the market during the study period.
The launch of new products which provide integration with nurse call systems will also boost the demand for nurse call systems, thus driving the market. For instance, in October 2020, Stryker launched a wireless hospital bed, ProCuity. This intelligent bed was designed to help reduce in-hospital patient falls at all acuity levels, improve nurse workflow efficiencies and safety, as well as help lower hospital costs. It is the only bed on the market today that can connect seamlessly to nurse call systems without the use of cables or wires. Hence, with the presence of well-established healthcare facilities and the growing demand for advanced healthcare systems among the aging population, along with the growing prevalence of chronic diseases, the market in this region is expected to experience a boost during the forecast period.
