Rise in Prevalence of Chronic Diseases
Growing incidences of chronic diseases, such as diabetes, cancer, osteoporosis, and others among the population, are strengthening the growth of the market. In 2019, the estimated number of individuals aged 50+ living in Europe was around 32 million. Out of this, 25.5 million were females, and 6.5 million were males. These devices help them to facilitate their daily living as the use of powered wheelchairs can help elderly people to live independently. The decline in agility and slow reflexes of old age people make them prone to injuries and falls even at home. Therefore, the need for elderly care devices is surging across the region. For instance, according to the NCDAlliance, more than one-third of the European population aged 15 or above suffer from chronic disease, and two out of three people at age 60 and above suffer from at least two chronic conditions.Increasing Investments
Heavy investments by various companies operating in the market for improvising the scenario of elderly care devices are expected to support the market growth. These increasing investments are invested into new startups which aim to scale up the efforts to serve elderly people. For instance, in 2021, the UK-based elderly care tech platform Birdie received USD11.5M Series A led by Index. The Caretech Birdie focuses on having more personalized and more preventative care so that older citizens can age at home longer, happier, and healthier.Increasing Aging Population
The rise in the proportion of elderly people who are aged 60 and more in the country is facilitating the growth of the market. Elderly populations are more prone to various diseases such as neurological, cardiovascular, and orthopedics, due to which there is a surge in demand for elderly care devices. Also, old age people suffer from several health issues with rising age, which in turn surges the growth of the Europe Elderly Care Medical Devices market. For instance, according to Statista data of 2021, Europe has the largest proportion of the aging population at 19%, whereas Italy has the largest elderly population share with 23.5% of the total population.Recent Developments
- Owing to the overworked care staff, SARA (Social & Autonomous Robotic Health Assistant), an innovation started by the robotic system, is used as an assistant which improves elderly care in hospitals and nursing homes. Also, it improves the quality of life of elderly residents.
- In 2020, Essence Group, a provider of IoT-based telecare solutions for older people, launched a new UK-specific telecare solution set, which includes multiple communication channels such as fall detection, activity monitoring, and outdoor monitoring to meet unique needs of old age people in the UK.
