MARKET OUTLOOK
Triton, in its report on the global ECG equipment market, estimates the industry to grow with a CAGR of 5.64% in the forecast years from 2021 to 2028.
The implementation of supportive laws & regulations to accommodate better research & development in the area of ECG equipment, along with the rising demand for ECG data management solutions, and the high prevalence of cardiovascular diseases among the population, is driving the growth of the market.
On the other hand, the intense competition among the vendors operating in this market is restraining this growth. Further, low reimbursement rates for cardiovascular diseases and a large number of product recalls are further hampering the development of the ECG equipment market. However, the usage of monitoring devices owing to the rising geriatric population and the advancements in imaging modalities are creating lucrative growth opportunities in the market.
