Digital Respiratory Devices Market Trends

• Increasing prevalence of respiratory disorders, such as COPD, TB, asthma, and sleep apnea is driving the market growth

The considerable rise in the prevalence of severe chronic respiratory diseases (CRDs) like bronchial asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), cystic fibrosis, lung disorders, and pulmonary hypertension (PH) is responsible for the market growth. A growing senior population, tobacco usage, increased air pollution, and occupational exposure to dust in the mining, forestry, and agricultural industries all contribute to a steadily rising risk of acquiring CRDs. As a result, the market for respiratory management tools is expanding quickly. Clinical testing, regulatory processes, and post-approval operations have become more difficult as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. This is primarily due to challenges with patient enrollment, treatment, and recruitment for clinical research.

However, it is projected that the use of smart inhalers will rise in the post-pandemic era as healthcare providers resort to linked medical devices to guarantee that patients receive the best care and advice available, regardless of the situation. This is due to the fact that many patients suffered since they were unable to receive consultations and treatments in person due to the pandemic's restrictions. 

The pandemic illustrated just how deadly respiratory infections and diseases can become if not promptly and adequately managed. According to the research that is currently available, digital inhalers help asthma and COPD patients better manage their medications and receive direct clinical care. The benefits of improved medication adherence have the potential to improve clinical outcomes and reduce the need for more expensive or complex therapies like biologics.

Additionally, positive results were seen with the usage of Adherium's smart inhaler system in a 12-month controlled research that was carried out in January 2017 at the Sheffield Children's Hospital in the United Kingdom. Less hospitalizations, better medication adherence, and fewer doctor visits were some of the beneficial medical outcomes. The global market is being driven by an increasing number of key developments in digital respiratory technology. For instance, FindAir medical's FindAir ONE smart inhaler device, which has received CE certification, is available to the general public in Europe as of January 2019. 

To increase the effectiveness of drug management, an increasing number of enterprises are adding digital technologies into their products. For instance, HeroTracker Sense was introduced by Aptar Pharma in April 2022. A standard metered dosage inhaler (pMDI) is transformed into a smart linked healthcare device by this revolutionary digital respiratory health solution. Thus, driving the Digital Respiratory Devices market revenue.
