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 increasing adoption of IT in healthcare is anticipated to drive the growth of the clinical alarm management market in the future. Information Technology (IT) in healthcare encompasses the use of digital systems and technologies to manage, store, and exchange health information, ultimately enhancing patient care and administrative efficiency. Clinical alarm management within healthcare IT is a crucial component aimed at boosting patient safety and streamlining healthcare operations. This process involves integrating medical devices and systems to monitor patient conditions, prioritize and filter alarms, and ensure prompt responses to critical events. For example, in September 2022, the American Medical Association, a U.S.-based professional organization, reported that the implementation of various digital health technologies, including Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems, has become essential for improving operational efficiency and patient care. By 2023, over 81% of hospitals and healthcare facilities in the U.S. were utilizing some form of EHR. Furthermore, 54.6% of Ambulatory Surgery Centers (ASCs) and 62.2% of physician-owned ASCs employed EHRs to enhance care coordination and decision-making. Thus, the increasing importance of IT in healthcare is propelling growth in the clinical alarm management market.
