UAE Patient Monitoring Equipment Market Analysis by Mordor Intelligence
The UAE Patient Monitoring Equipment Market is expected to register a CAGR of 6.23% during the forecast period.
The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the market growth. For instance, according to an article published by the Dubai World Trade Center in June 2021, the integration of various new technologies was crucial in enabling hospitals in Dubai to enhance patient care, including remote patient monitoring even after discharge. Thus, there was an increase in the usage of patient monitoring devices during the pandemic. However, as the pandemic has currently subsided, the studied market is expected to have normal growth during the forecast period of the study.
Several factors, including the rising burden of chronic diseases resulting from lifestyle changes, the growing preference for home and remote monitoring, and the ease of use and portability of devices, are driving market growth. According to the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation 2021, in the UAE, the highest number of deaths was caused by cardiovascular diseases, with around 8.31 million deaths reported in the year 2021. Thus, the rising prevalence of chronic disorders will propel market growth.
Furthermore, patient monitoring technologies can identify small changes in a patient’s physiological data, thereby promoting self-monitoring. Thus, it reduces readmissions and prevents avoidable hospitalizations, decreases the number of unnecessary trips to the doctor’s office, and reduces travel-related expenses. On a short- and long-term basis, the proper implementation of patient monitoring technologies can expand access to quality healthcare and save time. Factors such as the rising prevalence of chronic disorders and the increasing benefits of remote patient monitoring are expected to drive market growth. However, the resistance from healthcare industry professionals toward the adoption of patient monitoring systems, as well as the high cost of devices, is expected to hinder market growth.
UAE Patient Monitoring Equipment Market Trends and Insights
Remote Patient Monitoring Devices Segment is Expected to Have Significant Growth Over the Forecast Period
Remote patient monitoring technology encompasses day-to-day monitoring devices, including glucometers for patients with diabetes and heart or blood pressure monitors for patients undergoing cardiac care. Information can be sent to a physician's workplace by using telehealth communication links using a software application installed on the patient's internet-capable computer, smartphone, or tablet. The key factors propelling the growth of this segment are the rising geriatric population, the increasing prevalence of cardiac disorders and diabetes, and the increasing demand for home-based and non-invasive monitoring systems.
For instance, according to an article published by Bentham Science in July 2022, it has been observed that in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are considered one of the leading causes of morbidity. The incidence of premature coronary heart disease (CHD) is about 10-15 years earlier than that in people of Western countries. Thus, the high prevalence of cardiovascular diseases in the country is expected to boost segment growth.
Furthermore, according to the data updated by the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) in 2022, the UAE is said to have one of the world's highest rates of diabetes, with an estimated 13,263 people who have type 1 diabetes in the country in 2022. Thus, the high prevalence of diabetes is also expected to boost the usage of remote patient monitoring devices.
Moreover, the rising developments by various organizations are also expected to boost segment growth. For instance, in March 2021, the Dubai Health Authority (DHA) announced plans to enhance the use of innovative health technology, including the exploration of remote patient monitoring devices.
Thus, the actors mentioned above, such as the rising prevalence of cardiac disorders and diabetes, as well as the increasing developments by various organizations, are expected to enhance segment growth during the forecast period of the study.
Home Healthcare Segment is Expected to Have Significant Growth Over the Forecast Period
Home healthcare refers to a patient care service that helps a person with special needs to stay in the comfort of their home. It can be for people who are getting older gradually, or it could also be for people who have chronic diseases, are recovering from surgery or have a disability. The rising geriatric population in the country, the high prevalence of cardiovascular disorders and diabetes, and the increasing presence of home healthcare service providers in the country are expected to boost segment growth.
According to the data published by a few doctors from UAE in September 2022, doctors from the UAE’s private hospitals noted a trend where the majority of the cases of cardiovascular disease fall among the age group of 30 to 50 years in the UAE. It has been noted that over the past few decades, there has been a dramatic change in people's lifestyles, thus leading to an increase in cases of heart disease. Thus, the rising prevalence of heart diseases is expected to boost segment growth.
Moreover, the rising developments by home healthcare service providers are also expected to boost segment growth. For instance, in July 2022, Filipino Institute launched its first home health care center named Caredant Deira, UAE. Similarly, in July 2022, Pyramid Health Services, part of Hayat Health, launched its home healthcare services in the UAE, the services offered by them include home nursing, mother & baby care, wound management, catheter care, diabetes management, and post-operative rehabilitation among others. Thus, the rising developments by home healthcare providers are expected to boost segment growth.
Thus, the aforementioned factors such as the rising prevalence of cardiac disorders and diabetes coupled with the rising geriatric population, and the rising developments by various home healthcare providers are expected to enhance the segment growth during the forecast period of the study.
