The Asian pulse oximeters market, mainly driven by the enormous patient base of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), accompanied by the technological amelioration of well-designed hand-held pulse oximeters and wrist-worn pulse oximeters, was valued at $80.1 million in 2013, and is expected to reach $177.8 million by 2018, at a CAGR of 17.3%. The hand-held pulse oximeters segment constitutes the largest share in the pulse oximeters market.
The report analyzes the market of devices in terms of 4 segments, namely, hand-held pulse oximeters, wrist-worn pulse oximeters, fingertip pulse oximeters and table-top pulse oximeters. These segments experienced a substantial positive growth till 2013, owing to the elevated momentum in the awareness levels among the care givers and patients. The hand-held pulse oximeters segment has been contributing nearly 36.4%, in terms of value, towards the total pulse oximeters industry. In terms of volume (units), the hand-held pulse oximeters hold a prime stand in the overall pulse oximeters industry. The market has been witnessing the maximum growth as a result of the increase in patient pool and the rise in the incidence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
Japan is the major contributor in the Asian market, with a share of 34%. This is mainly attributed to the increasing healthcare awareness for sleep apnea, rising disposable incomes, improving healthcare infrastructure, wide usage of the device in nursing homes and smaller hospitals, economic growth favored by broadening insurance coverage, and the increasing cases of obesity that are being added to the pool of sleep apnea patients. This has been used as a preferred device for continuous monitoring of the patient. The manufacturers of oximeters are considering the Asian market to be a potential avenue for further exploration.
