The rising prevalence of fatal chronic diseases is anticipated to drive the growth of the artificial intelligence (AI) in the operating room market in the future. Fatal chronic diseases refer to long-term illnesses or conditions that are ultimately life-threatening, characterized by persistent symptoms, ongoing medical management, and a prognosis indicating limited life expectancy. AI is utilized in the operating room for managing chronic diseases by assisting surgeons in executing precise and targeted surgeries and helping to predict the progression of these diseases. For example, a novel AI program can interpret CT (Computed Tomography) scans of chronic fatal diseases, such as those in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients, in just a few seconds without human intervention. In July 2023, the Office for National Statistics, a UK-based executive office of the UK Statistics Authority, reported that chronic lower respiratory diseases became the leading cause of excess deaths in England, with an increase of 359 deaths, representing an 18% rise above the average. Therefore, the growing incidence of fatal chronic diseases is fueling the growth of the artificial intelligence (AI) in the operating room market.

The increasing adoption of robotics is projected to drive the growth of the artificial intelligence (AI) in the operating room market moving forward.
