ECG market Overview:
Electrocardiograph (ECG) devices are used to record the heart activities through electric signals. These devices are amplified on the ECG monitor. They are essentially adopted across various medical set-ups to diagnose different types of heart diseases and arrhythmias in people; thereby, assisting the appropriate therapy for patients suffering from cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The South Korea ECG market was valued at $2.99 million in 2017 and is expected to reach $7.69 million by 2025, registering a CAGR of 12.3% from 2017 to 2025.

The key factors that drive the market growth include increase in number of CVD patients across South Korea and rise in demand for monitoring systems and portable cardiac rhythm management. In addition, surge in the geriatric population and favorable government regulations regarding the ECG devices supplement the market growth in South Korea. However, high costs associated with sophisticated ECG devices and increase in threat of market saturation are the factors anticipated to restrict the market growth. Conversely, increase in development of wireless communication and cloud computing is expected to provide lucrative opportunities for the growth of the market.

The South Korea ECG market is segmented into product, lead, and end user. Based on product, the market is divided into resting ECG, stress ECG, and Holter monitors. The Holter monitors are further bifurcated into wired and wireless Holter monitors. Based on lead, the market is classified into single lead, 3-6 lead, and 12-lead. Based on end user, it is categorized into hospitals & clinics, home settings & ambulatory surgical centers (ASCs), and others.
