Hearing Screening And Diagnostic Devices Market Size, Market Share, Application Analysis, Regional Outlook, Growth Trends, Key Players, Competitive Strategies and Forecasts, 2021 To 2029

Hearing Disability is considered if the hearing loss is more than 40 dB in adults and 30dB in children from age group 0-14 years. According to the World Health Organization 2019 report the number of people suffering with hearing loss globally are 360 million which represents 5.3% of the world’s population. Low frequency sounds are sensed near the apex of cochlea and high frequency sounds near the base. Precise understanding of the ear anatomy is important to perform effective diagnosis and conclude the probable cause of hearing loss.

The test types included in the scope of the report are speech discrimination test, pure tone test, tympanometry test, speech reception threshold test, most comfortable listening level test, bone conduction test, uncomfortable loudness level test and others. By indications the hearing screening and diagnostic devices are sub segmented as conductive hearing loss, sensorineural hearing loss, combination hearing loss and others.

As per the research findings of World Health Organization, loss of hearing is the sixth largest contributor to the global burden of diseases. It has a severe negative social impact on the patients in today’s cultural environment of faster information exchange. There is rehabilitative treatment available for any kind of hearing loss provided timely and accurate diagnosis is performed. Anatomically the ear is divided in three sections the external, middle and inner ear, and the disease etiology for hearing loss involves more than one section of the ear. At present conductive hearing loss is the most widely diagnosed ear complication owing to the rising prevalence of patients suffering with cerumen impaction and otosclerosis. In addition patients suffering with severe otitis media infection later develop conductive hearing loss. Sensorineural hearing loss is on rise due to increase in loud noise exposure, inherited disorders and presbycusis.

Based on test, the global hearing screening and diagnostic devices market is categorized into

• Pure Tone Test
• Tympanometry Test
• Speech Reception Threshold Test
• Most Comfortable Listening Level Test (MCL)
• Uncomfortable Loudness Level Test (UCL)
• Speech Discrimination Test
• Bone Conduction Test
• Others

Diagnostic devices for hearing gives evaluation of the sensitivity of a person towards hearing and severity of hearing loss. The facets that contributes towards market growth of hearing screening and diagnostic devices are increasing cases of ear trauma due to medication or toxins and rising noise pollution due to rapid urbanization. Tympanometry tests are widely utilized by the ENT surgeons to perform precise diagnosis of the middle ear. It is used for the detection of fluid and perforation in eardrums in otitis media infection. Pure tone test and bone conduction test together are gaining tremendous importance for its ability to evaluate the degree of hearing loss in patients. If the test results from both the tests are same then it is diagnosed as sensironeural loss in patients and if the results are different then patient is suffering with conductive hearing loss. The chief players that dominate the hearing screening and diagnostic devices market are Accent Hearing Pty, Ltd., GN Otometrics, Interacoustics A/S, IntriCon Corporation, MAICO Diagnostics GmbH, Nashua Hearing Group, Natus Medical Incorporated, Neurosoft, OTODYNAMICS Ltd., and Siemens Healthcare GmbH.

For the purpose of this study, the global hearing screening and diagnostic devices market is categorized into the following regional and country specific markets:

• North America

National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) has reported that in the United States about 2 to 3 per 1000 children are born with hearing loss. Approximately 15 % of U.S. adult population aged 18 years and above report some trouble in hearing. Increasing number of citizens reporting hearing complications and presence of thriving diagnostic centers make North America the global leader in hearing screening and diagnostic devices market. In Europe the rising prevalence of inherited hearing disorders and presbycusis thrusts the hearing screening and diagnostic devices market growth. According to World Health Organization 2019 statistics approximately one thirds of people above 65 years are suffering with hearing loss in Asia Pacific region. Poor health awareness in low income families regarding cleaning the earwax has resulted in otitis media infection causing trauma to the ear drums. Competitive market created by the domestic players steer the Asian Pacific market growth.
