Clinical Alarm Management Global Market Report 2024

The global clinical alarm management market has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $2.39 billion in 2023 to $2.89 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.9%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to several factors, including heightened concerns about patient safety, a focus on regulatory compliance, the increasing complexity of healthcare devices, efforts to mitigate alarm fatigue, initiatives promoting patient-centered care, and the recognition of the risks associated with adverse events. These factors collectively contributed to the expansion witnessed during that timeframe.

The global clinical alarm management market is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $6.31 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.6%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the expansion of remote patient management, trends in population health management, the adoption of patient engagement solutions, the use of data analytics for alarm optimization, and an increased focus on global health emergency preparedness. Major trends expected in the forecast period include the integration of artificial intelligence (AI), the utilization of advanced analytics and predictive algorithms, efforts to enhance interoperability and integration with Electronic Health Records (EHRs), the incorporation of wireless and mobile solutions, the implementation of cybersecurity measures, and the formation of vendor partnerships and collaborations. Additionally, continuous monitoring technologies are expected to play a significant role in shaping the landscape of clinical alarm management. These trends collectively contribute to the projected growth in the upcoming period.

The clinical alarm management market is poised for expansion due to the increasing prevalence of alarm fatigue in healthcare settings. Alarm fatigue, characterized by a sensory overload resulting from excessive alarms, and has been linked to patient deaths. Hospitals are prioritizing alarm management solutions as a critical safety improvement area. Clinical alarm management solutions, utilizing modern clinical communication tools, aim to mitigate alarm fatigue risks. A 2023 research publication by the BMJ underscores the rising challenge of alarm fatigue, with factors like patient movement and incorrect device positioning contributing to false alarms. Estimates indicate that over 70% of alarms could be false, emphasizing the imperative for clinical alarm management solutions to ensure patient safety and drive market growth.

The clinical alarm management market is witnessing growth driven by the increasing adoption of Information Technology (IT) in healthcare. IT integration plays a pivotal role in enhancing patient safety and optimizing healthcare operations. Accenture's 2021 report highlights the growing utilization of technology in the USA's healthcare sector, with 31% of institutions using electronic health records and 18% leveraging mobile and tablet applications. The integration of medical devices and systems for monitoring patient conditions, alarm prioritization, and timely responses to critical events signifies the growing influence of IT in driving the clinical alarm management market.

A prominent trend in the clinical alarm management market is the integration of big data and artificial intelligence (AI) to meet evolving customer demands. Major industry players are adopting big data and AI technologies to enhance functionalities. In September 2021, Medtronic collaborated with Statis Health to introduce the Stasis Monitor in India. This AI-enabled bedside patient monitoring system, cleared by the FDA, automates critical patient information processes. The system utilizes predictive AI to alert healthcare staff to deteriorating patient conditions, providing a comprehensive approach to monitoring vital signs and enabling remote monitoring through a tablet and cloud-connected app.

Companies operating in the clinical alarm management market are introducing innovative products to maintain their market position. Wearable devices, such as medical alert pendants, are gaining prominence. TELUS Health's launch of a next-generation Medical Alert Pendant in November 2023 exemplifies this trend. The pendant, designed for older adults, offers advanced features like GPS-enabled location tracking, live emergency support, and a unique fall detection feature. The connected Caregiver App enhances communication and provides updates on the user's daily routines, mobility, and whereabouts, offering a comprehensive solution for emergency assistance and caregiver reassurance.
