Executive Summary
According to this report titled, 'Medical Electrodes Market,' the medical electrodes market size was valued at $1.7 billion in 2021, and is estimated to reach $2.4 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 3.6% from 2022 to 2031.Medical electrodes facilitate the transfer of energy of ionic currents in the body into electrical currents that can be amplified, studied, and used for diagnosis of the medical condition of the patient. Medical electrode comprises lead, metal, and electrode conducting plate. These devices are combined with monitoring systems to provide continuous monitoring of patients suffering from various disorders. These electrodes are used for the diagnosis of several ocular, muscular, cardiac, and nervous diseases.
Factors that drive the medical electrodes market growth include the rise in prevalence of neurological and cardiovascular disorders, rise in number of R&D investments for medical devices, surge in geriatric population. Rising incidence and prevalence of cardiovascular and neurological disorders is one of the major factor propelling the growth of the medical electrodes. The risk of high mortality is very prevalent in such disorders which has resulted in the rise of frequent medical diagnosis of patients which has increased the demand of medical electrodes market. Hence, increasing prevalence of chronic diseases across the globe will significantly drive the market growth. Increase in various government-led favorable policies and rise in focus on minimally invasive surgeries are recently observed medical electrodes market trends. Along with this, the adoption rate is expected to increase owing to the higher affordability and lower risk of cross-contamination. Medical electrodes are easier to use and disposable or reusable in nature, which are increasing their usage during laboratory and clinical applications. Moreover, improvements in the test effectiveness are assisting for the measurement of brain activity at patient’s home.
Furthermore, constant investments by the key players are helping in the development of diagnostic and therapeutic platforms. Major players are constantly coming up with new growth strategies, such as product portfolio expansion, new product launches, acquisitions, and mergers. In September 2021, NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation, a medical technology company focused on improving surgical care options and outcomes for patients suffering from neurological disorders, received the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 510(k) clearance to market its Evo sEEG Electrode technology. Moreover, Natus Medical, Inc. announced their partnership with Holberg EEG AS in 2020. The purpose of the partnership is enhancing and automating the diagnosis of epilepsy, through the development and distribution of AutoSCORE algorithm worldwide. Constant rise in the competition and promising outcomes among leading medical device companies for the approval and commercialization of medical electrodes products in different areas of unmet medical needs are projected to boost the medical electrodes market.
