[191 Pages Report] The Diagnostic Electrocardiograph Market size was estimated at USD 11.20 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 11.95 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 6.67% to reach USD 17.61 billion by 2030.
A diagnostic electrocardiograph is a non-invasive, essential medical device used in detecting and monitoring heart-related diseases and conditions. Also referred to as an ECG or EKG, this device records the electrical activity of the heart over a period of time through electrodes attached to the skin. Globally, these devices are used in hospitals, clinics, and other healthcare facilities, with increased use in remote patient monitoring, a burgeoning trend in healthcare. Market expansion is propelled by the growing prevalence of cardiovascular ailments, advances in diagnostic technology, and the rise of remote patient monitoring. However, it faces challenges owing to the high cost of electrocardiographs and inadequate reimbursement policies for diagnostic devices. Future growth opportunities for the diagnostic electrocardiograph market lie in the growing adoption of digital health technology with the emerging applications of artificial intelligence and machine learning.
Product: Growing utilization of software & services or data analysis and accurate interpretation
Event monitors are portable devices for short-term cardiac monitoring, capturing specific events or symptoms. Holter monitors are continuous ambulatory devices recording heart activity over an extended period, typically 24 to 48 hours. Implantable loop recorders are subcutaneous devices implanted for long-term monitoring, especially for detecting irregular heart rhythms. Mobile cardiac telemetry devices are wireless devices that enable real-time transmission of cardiac data, providing continuous monitoring outside traditional settings. Resting ECG devices are standard electrocardiogram devices used for routine, non-stressful assessments. Smart ECG monitors integrate smart technology for enhanced connectivity, data analysis, and user interaction. Stress ECG devices are designed to monitor heart activity during physical stress tests. The diagnostic electrocardiography landscape includes a suite of software & services. These encompass data analysis, interpretation algorithms, and telemedicine solutions, enhancing the diagnostic capabilities of the devices mentioned above. Together, these products contribute to a comprehensive diagnostic approach, combining hardware innovation with analytical tools & services for a more nuanced understanding of cardiac health.
Lead Type: Growing preference for 12-lead electrocardiograph as it provides the most detailed diagnostics
The 12-lead electrocardiograph is often considered the standard as its comprehensive range offers an overview of the heart from 12 different angles. Highly recommended for acute hospital settings, it allows for early diagnosis of heart conditions, particularly myocardial infarction. The 3-lead ECG is typically utilized for monitoring patients over a prolonged timespan, often on wards or in the community. Due to the limited number of leads, only basic rhythm can be observed. However, it is sufficient for detecting any major life-threatening arrhythmias. The 5-lead ECG provides more comprehensive information than the 3-lead, making it preferred for critical care and emergency settings where rapid changes can occur. This lead structure enables monitoring of both rhythm and ischemia. The 6-lead ECG is slightly more specific than the 5-lead and is generally used in emergency situations where a quick but detailed overview of the heart’s electrical activity is needed. Single-lead ECGs are primarily used for preliminary rhythm identification or long-term heart rate monitoring. They are often found in doctor’s offices, outpatient settings, or patient’s homes for long-term monitoring.
End-User: Increasing potential of diagnostic electrocardiographs across hospitals & clinics with increased intensive care units and cardiac units
Ambulatory surgical centers (ASCs) play a pivotal role in the healthcare industry. These centers are driven by a high demand for outpatient surgeries, given their convenience and lower cost compared to hospitals. As the number of ASCs proliferates, there is a growing requirement for high-end, precise diagnostic equipment, including Electrocardiographs. Diagnostic centers mainly revolve around disease detection and prevention. High accuracy and quick results are paramount in this setting. The need for facets, including telecardiology, has also given the ECG market an upward thrust. Hospitals & clinics form the major share of the end-user ECG market segment. The palpable necessity for ECG devices in these settings is driven by the intensive care units, cardiac units, and other medical departments that routinely cater to heart patients.
