The hospital bed market in North America is expected to grow from US$ 1,083.38 million in 2022 to US$ 1,466.55 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.2% from 2022 to 2028.
According to a report by the National Institute of Health (NIH), there is a high demand for equipped, facilitated bed, which help prevent other physiological complications among patients, which include bedsores. According to the Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research (MFMER) report, a patient suffering from bedsores has medical conditions limiting the ability to change positions or cause them to spend most of their time in a bed or chair. For example, bedsores fall into several stages based on depth, severity, and other characteristics such as the degree of skin and tissue damage ranging from changes in skin color to a severe injury involving muscle and bone. However, the development of information technology (IT) in healthcare, i.e., healthcare IT based medical equipment’s such as smart hospital bed, involving the use of wireless sensor networks (WSNs), has resulted in easy and quick service acting as a solution to prevent bedsores in motionless and disabled patients. With simple applications (apps), hospital bed has been transformed into highly networked appliances, which are categorized as Class 2 Medical Devices seeking electronic intelligence. For example, modern hospital bed is equipped with a monitor screen that shows the health status of patients and enables remote transmission of data to the nurse station. Additional modules include tilt accelerometers and motor drives to control the tilt of bed, powered wheels to facilitate the movement of the patient to different areas of the hospital, USB, and Ethernet ports to aid in connectivity with a PC or a hospital network, and an LCD screen and keypad for the user interface, which allow healthcare providers to offer comfort to patients. In October 2020, Stryker announced the launch of "ProCuity," which is the first and only wireless hospital bed available in the market. This newly launched product is designed to help reduce the fall of patients in hospitals, improve the efficiencies and safety of nurses, and lower hospital operating costs. This bed can connect seamlessly to nurse call systems without the use of cables and wires.

Market Overview
The North America hospital bed market is segmented in the US, Canada, and Mexico. The growth of the market in North America is attributed to the increasing adoption of healthcare smart beds in acute care or long-term care facilities. For example, the Harvard Medical School reveals in a published study that using respiratory rate sensing technology and heart-rate sensing technology, when incorporated in hospital bed such as bedide monitors and EarlySense's under-the-mattress, helps reduce such events among the patients by 86%. Such aforementioned factors are responsible for the growth of the hospital bed market in North America. The US has the highest rates of intensive care beds among high-income countries and the highest overall hospital capacity in North America.North America Hospital bed market Segmentation
