Wearable Heart Monitoring Device Market Analysis

Wearable Heart Monitoring Devices Market Overview

Wearable Heart Monitoring Device Market Size was valued at USD 2.31 Billion in 2023. The Global Wearable Heart Monitoring Device industry is projected to grow from USD 2.56 Billion in 2024 to USD 5.87 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.12% during the forecast period (2024 - 2032). Digital revolution and the rapid development of the information technology has transformed virtually every industry and healthcare industry is no exception.

Recently, novel devices for wireless monitoring have emerged and begun to be integrated with cardiac patient care. This has led to the development of wearable heart monitoring devices market. By set-up, a majority of the wearable heart monitoring devices consists of wearable monitoring device and a portable data transmission device which transmits real time medical device data for analysis. According to the National Health Service in 2018, an average American is constantly connected via high bandwidth to a vast network of data and sophisticated digital platforms with over 90% of American adults owning a cell phone and 55% having smart phones. Such exploitation of the technology has facilitated the development of mobile phones based wearable heart monitoring devices. 

Cardiac conditions such as atrial fibrillation (AFib) requires extensive and continuous monitoring. Conventionally, Holter monitoring is exploited for the same. But since the technology is expensive and risks of missing arrhythmias are associated, a number of new and effective technologies for wireless monitoring are devised which has facilitated the market growth. According to the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention in 2018, 2.7-6.1 million people in the United States have AFib. Moreover, it is reported that more than 750,000 hospitalizations occur each year in the U.S. because of AFib, accounting to the estimated medical cost for people who have AFib to be about USD 8,705 per person. Such trends in the prevalence of AFib along with high per capita healthcare expenditures in the developed countries and growing geriatric population is estimated to boost the market growth during the forecasted period. However, lack of awareness for the products, low healthcare expenditures in the developing countries and stringent FDA approvals will restrain the market growth during the forecasted period.
