Bioelectronic medicine research traditionally relied on implanted devices to stimulate nerves and achieve therapeutic results. The GE Research team demonstrates the precise stimulation of nerve features directly within target organs using a non-invasive ultrasound technique. The preliminary findings of the GE Research team indicate that more investment and research into the use of ultrasound for peripheral neuromodulation is warranted and that increased collaboration between ultrasound device engineers and neuroscientists will be required. Hence, showing potential and simultaneously the need for investment in the biomedicine market.

Researchers are now looking into developing various bioelectronics-based therapeutic devices for tumor stimulation and neural modulation. This allows for the control of cancer signaling pathways, the restoration of healthy electrical impulse patterns, and the prevention of cancer progression. Recent advancements in bioelectric Medicine may prove to be a more natural and safe approach to cancer treatment than chemotherapy and surgery, both of which have numerous side effects. In today's world, patients with certain types of cancer are given electric field therapies in addition to chemotherapy to improve survival and safety. For instance, Bryne et al. showed that a high concentration of localized drugs could be forced deep inside the tumors using low direct current electric fields, referred to as "iontophoretic chemotherapy".

Also," per the article published in December 2020, "Core Concept: The rise of bioelectric medicine sparks interest among researchers, patients, and industry," the ph,"maceutical industry is also on board. Johnson & Johnson's portfolio now includes several bioelectronic devices. This is likely to boost the market growth over the forecast period.

Thus the above mentioned factors are expected to drive the growth of the market during the forecast period.

Electroceuticals/Bioelectric Medicine Market Trends

The Arrhythmia Segment is Expected to Hold a Major Market Share in the Electroceuticals/Bioelectric Medicine Market

The Arrhythmia segment is expected to hold a major market share in the growth of the market during the forecast period. The rising prevalence of arrhythmia is the major factor driving market growth as per the article published in February 2021 titled "Global Epidemiology of Atrial Fibrillation: An Increasing Epidemic and Public Health Challenge," Atrial fibrillation is the most frequent cardiac arrhythmia. It has been estimated that 6-12 million people worldwide will suffer from this condition in the United States by 2050 and 17.9 million people in Europe by 2060. Atrial fibrillation is a major risk factor for ischemic stroke and provokes an important economic burden along with significant morbidity and mortality. Also, according to the National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention (CDC) and Health Promotion, Division for Heart Disease and Stroke Prevention facts updated on September 2021, it is estimated that 12.1 million people in the United States will have Atrial fibrillation (AFib) in 2030. According to the same source, more than 454,000 hospitalizations with AFib as the primary diagnosis happen yearly in the United States.

Furthermore, the products such as defibrillators and pacemakers are widely accepted by the population, which is also boosting the market growth. Additionally, growing technological advances and product approvals drive segment growth. For example, in July 2020, Abbott Laboratories received approval from the United States Food and Drug Administration for its Gallant line, which includes an implanted cardioverter-defibrillator and a cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator with Bluetooth technology. Advance pacemaker technology features such as remote data tracking devices, secure magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) devices, and data recording functionality enhance segment growth.

North America is Expected to Hold a significant share in the market and is expected to do the Same in the Forecast Period.

COVID?19 was temporally associated with an increase in out?of?hospital cardiac arrests. As per the article published in May 2021 on "Implantable Cardioverter?Defibrillator Shocks During COVID?19 Outbreak", Defibrillator shock episodes increased during the higher COVID?19 activity in New York City, New Orleans, and Boston. COVID?19 can affect the cardiovascular system, resulting in myocardial injury, intravascular thrombosis and arrhythmias. Individuals with an implantable cardioverter?defibrillator (ICD) are at increased risk for arrhythmic sudden cardiac arrest. Spikes in ICD shock rates also appeared to be temporally associated with the COVID?19 surge. However, the data released from Medtronic's survey on United States population demonstrating several struggles for those with chronic pain during the COVID-19 pandemic found that 44% of current chronic back and leg pain sufferers experienced care delays during the COVID-19 pandemic despite 87% reporting that their pain has not improved - or has even worsened since the pandemic began two years ago in March 2020. The survey also demonstrated that an overwhelming majority want more treatment options, yet awareness of spinal cord stimulation and targeted drug delivery options remains relatively low. That represents an opportunity to educate patients about the full range of options available to help alleviate their pain.

The rising geriatric population, increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, and demand for advanced quality healthcare are putting immense pressure on healthcare to meet the population's increasing demand.
