The PAH Equipment Market is Forecast to Grow at a CAGR of 23.7% Over the Forecast Period to 2028

This study presents a comprehensive overview of what is going on in this market, assisting managers with designing market strategies likely to succeed. 

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) testing via iCPET represents next-generation automation of helping people who are challenged by exercise. PAH is often a diagnosis for those who have unusual fatigue who have been tested by a physician and determined to have a disease that impacts the blood flow between organs, between the heart and the lungs.

PAH, high blood pressure in the lungs, is characterized by exercise intolerance. A recently embraced test iCPET has been able to document the presence of chronic fatigue syndrome so that patients can actually collect disability insurance, a hitherto virtual impossibility.

The more recently used invasive test, iCPET can detect that during intense exercise, a decline in mixed venous oxygen saturation (SvO2) is the defining characteristic of hypertension, diagnosing a disease PAH. An early paper on the test in 2014 describes a decline in mixed venous oxygen saturation (SvO2) from 55.4%to 21.0% for patients with PAH. Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension equipment markets have become significant during Covid as 18% of the patients that get Covid struggle to a varying degree with post-Covid, long term Covid conditions that include dyspnea, exercise intolerance. The Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension equipment market is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 23.7% over the forecast period to 2028.
