Ventilators Global Market Report 2024

The ventilators market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $4.55 billion in 2023 to $5.02 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.4%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to factors such as the prevalence of respiratory conditions, increased surgical procedures, the presence of intensive care units (ICUs), technological advancements, and an aging population.

The ventilators market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.39 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.1%. Looking forward to the forecast period, the growth can be attributed to the adoption of telemedicine and remote monitoring, the trend towards personalized medicine, ongoing technological innovations, and investments in hospital infrastructure. Notable trends in the forecast period include the development of portable and transport ventilators, the introduction of advanced ventilation modes, the integration of digital health and telehealth, and ongoing innovation in ventilation technologies.

The ventilators market is experiencing growth due to the increasing prevalence of respiratory diseases. Chronic respiratory conditions like asthma, bronchitis, pneumonia, and others, arising from various causes including bacterial and viral infections, are contributing to the growing demand for ventilators. Ventilators are respiratory devices designed to provide vital respiratory support to patients with chronic respiratory illnesses. For instance, in 2023, data from the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare reveals that nearly 30% of Australians reported long-term respiratory conditions. Among the statistics, 5.1 million Australians (20% of the total population) suffered from allergic rhinitis, commonly known as 'hay fever,' 2.7 million (11%) had asthma, and 2.0 million (8.0%) were diagnosed with chronic sinusitis, out of an expected 7.5 million people with these ailments (ABS 2022). Furthermore, the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a surge of respiratory infections, including pneumonia, affecting individuals' breathing. The emergence of such infectious diseases with pandemic potential is a significant driver of growth in the ventilator market.

The primary types of ventilator devices include those used in intensive care units or critical care settings, transportable or portable units for ambulatory care, and specialized neonatal ventilators intended for newborns and young infants during the first month after birth. Ventilator interfaces can be categorized as either invasive or non-invasive, depending on how they are connected to the patient. These ventilators find use across various end-users, including hospitals, clinics, home care, ambulatory care centers, and other healthcare settings.

The growth of the ventilators market is expected to be driven by the increasing number of surgical procedures in the future. Surgical procedures, which involve invasive medical techniques performed by healthcare professionals to diagnose, treat, or address medical conditions, injuries, or diseases, are on the rise. Ventilators, also known as mechanical ventilators or breathing machines, play a vital role in various surgical procedures, especially those involving general anesthesia and specific types of surgeries. For example, in 2021, the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, a U.S.-based organization representing board-certified aesthetic plastic surgeons, reported a 19.3% overall increase in procedures conducted by plastic surgeons in 2021. This encompassed over 12.8 million surgical procedures and 17.5 million non-surgical procedures performed worldwide. Hence, the growing number of surgical procedures is a key driver for the ventilators market.

The ventilators market is anticipated to face challenges due to the increasing number of complications associated with the use of ventilators. These complications can include issues like bronchopleural fistula, pneumothorax, nosocomial pneumonia, as well as other problems that lead to reduced cardiac output, gastric disturbances, renal impairment, and alkalosis. As reported by the Northwell Health COVID-19 Research Consortium in 2020, the mortality rate significantly rose to 88% for individuals who underwent mechanical ventilation. The analysis in the report indicates that a majority of patients did not survive after being placed on mechanical ventilators, highlighting the serious concerns regarding the complications linked to ventilator usage.

In response to the surge in demand caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, companies in the ventilator market have been rapidly expanding their production capabilities. COVID-19, a respiratory illness caused by the COVID-19, primarily affects the lungs and can lead to severe pneumonia and respiratory complications. Many patients afflicted with the virus require ventilator support for breathing. For example, Medtronic, a prominent medical device manufacturer, boosted its ventilator production by 40%. Likewise, Philips aimed to increase its ventilator production capacity fourfold to address the growing need.

Prominent companies in the vehicle engine and engine parts industry are striving to gain a competitive advantage by developing innovative products like the F&P Visairo. The F&P Visairo is a respiratory humidification system specifically designed to offer optimal humidification for patients undergoing mechanical ventilation within a hospital environment. For instance, in November 2021, Fisher & Paykel Healthcare, a healthcare company based in New Zealand, introduced the F&P Visairo, a non-invasive ventilation hospital under-nose mask. This innovative medical mask, the F&P Visairo, incorporates dynamic support technology to deliver optimal performance. It enables bridge-free non-invasive ventilation, ensuring stability and performance while eliminating pressure on the nose bridge, providing an unobstructed field of view. Fisher & Paykel Healthcare is a leading manufacturer of systems and products catering to acute and long-term respiratory care, surgical applications, and the management of obstructive sleep apnea.

In February 2022, Zehnder Group, a Swiss-based ventilation company, successfully acquired Airia Brand Inc. for an undisclosed sum. This strategic acquisition is set to broaden Zehnder Group's product offerings and enhance its presence in the North American market. Airia Brand Inc. specializes in the production of various residential and commercial ventilation products, which include heat recovery ventilators and energy recovery ventilators.
