Implantable Cardiac Monitors Market Dynamics:
According to the data released by the Centers for Disease and Prevention Control (CDC) in 2021, it was estimated that 12.1 million people in the United States will have atrial fibrillation by 2030. Also, as per the same data source, in 2019 it was the cause of 26,535 deaths in the United States. Atrial fibrillation (A-fib) is an irregular and often very rapid heart rhythm. The complications related to atrial fibrillation can be controlled by continuously monitoring the cardiac rhythms. This monitoring can be done by devices like implantable cardiac monitors. Thus, the incidence of atrial fibrillation is expected to grow during the forecast period, thereby leading to increased demand for implantable cardiac monitors.
Also, cardiovascular disorder is higher in obese and overweight people. For instance, as per the World Health Organization (WHO) 2021, in the year 2020, young adults in the US were half as likely to have obesity as middle-aged adults. Thus, the increasing prevalence of obesity is rising ultimately increasing the prevalence of cardiovascular disorders and leading to the increase in demand for implantable cardiac monitors in the market.
Moreover, surging product launches in the market will also drive the market growth of implantable cardiac monitors in the upcoming years. For instance, in November 2022, Boston Scientific launched the LUX-Dx Insertable Cardiac Monitor (ICM) System, a long-term diagnostic device inserted under the skin of patients to detect arrhythmias associated with conditions such as atrial fibrillation (AF), cryptogenic stroke, and syncope, in Europe.
Therefore, the factors stated above collectively will drive the overall implantable cardiac monitors market during the forecast period from 2022-2027.
However, the stringent regulatory approval process for implantable cardiac monitors, the high cost of the implants and surgery, and others may prove to be challenging factors for the implantable cardiac monitor's market growth.
The unprecedented outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has slowed down the market growth for implantable cardiac monitors. This is because, with the rise of COVID-19 cases, the government across the globe implemented various safety measures such as lockdowns and stringent guidelines which disrupted the supply chain of implantable cardiac monitors internationally. Implantable cardiac monitors are surgically placed under the skin of the chest.
Therefore, the cancellation of elective surgeries in the hospital during the pandemic situation to prevent the transmission of the disease among the patients as most of the population receiving implantable cardiac monitors belong to the old age group also impacted the implantable cardiac monitors market. However, due to the launch of vaccines, the upturn of resources and supply chain, and the resumption of patients to hospitals for treatment and surgical procedures, the market for implantable cardiac monitors picked up momentum again.
Implantable Cardiac Monitors Market Segment Analysis:
Implantable Cardiac Monitors Market by Application (Arrhythmia, Atrial Fibrillation, and Others), End-User (Hospitals & Clinics, Home Settings, Ambulatory Surgical Centers, and Others), and Geography (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Rest of the World).
In the application segment of the implantable cardiac monitors market, the arrhythmia segment is expected to have a significant revenue share in the year 2021. This was primarily owing to the rising prevalence of cardiac arrhythmia and cardiovascular disorders across the globe. According to the CDC 2021 data, it was estimated that nearly 360,900 people died in 2019 due to coronary artery diseases. As per the same source, in 2019, about 18.2 million adults aged 20 and older globally have coronary artery diseases. Coronary artery disease can weaken the heart muscle and lead to heart failure and arrhythmias.
Thus, the increasing prevalence of coronary artery disease will lead to an increase in the prevalence of cardiac arrhythmia. Cardiac arrhythmia can be managed by monitoring it continuously with devices like implantable cardiac monitors. Therefore, the above fact can support the growth of implantable cardiac monitors in arrhythmia.
Moreover, these monitors are connected through Bluetooth to the smartphone, where the data of heartbeat can be evaluated and treatment can be given accordingly. Therefore, the demand for arrhythmia-managing implantable cardiac monitors rises, thereby the category is expected to witness considerable growth eventually contributing to the overall growth of the global implantable cardiac monitors market during the forecast period.
North America is expected to dominate the overall Implantable Cardiac Monitors Market:
Among all the regions, North America is expected to dominate global implantable cardiac monitors in the year 2021 and is expected to do the same during the forecast period from 2022-2027. This can be attributed to the rising incidence of cardiac arrhythmia, the rising number of the geriatric patient, the longevity of the device in North America region, the presence of key players, and the rising number of approvals and launches in the region is also expected to increase the demand for implantable cardiac monitors in during the forecast period from 2022 - 2027.
As per the US Census Bureau, 2022 report, it was estimated that the number of Americans ages 65 and older is projected to nearly double from 52 million in 2018 to 95 million by 2060. Geriatric people are more prone to cardiovascular diseases. Thus, the rising number of geriatric patients prone to chronic disorders such as cardiovascular disorders will increase the demand for cardiac monitoring devices.
In addition, the rise in the prevalence of diabetes among the American population could also be a potential factor augmenting the market for implantable cardiac monitors in the region as diabetic people are susceptible to developing cardiovascular diseases and cardiac arrhythmia. Over time, high blood sugar can damage blood vessels and the nerves that control the heart. This will lead to weak heart muscles and cardiac arrhythmia. For instance, as per the National Diabetes Statistics Report, 2020, about 34.2 million Americans were suffering from diabetes in the same year.
Therefore, the increasing prevalence of diabetes will increase the number of cardiac arrhythmia cases in the United States. Cardiac arrhythmia can be monitored through devices like an implantable cardiac monitor. This device provides continuous assessment of heart rate and heartbeat which gives clarity to the physician about the treatment which should be given to the patient.
Further, the rising strategic activities such as new product launches, regulatory approvals, acquisitions, and partnerships, among others will increase the demand for implantable cardiac monitors in North America during the forthcoming years. For instance, in September 2022, Medtronic plc, a global leader in healthcare technology, announced the LINQ II� Insertable Cardiac Monitor (ICM) system is the first-and-only ICM to receive 510(k) clearance by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in pediatric patients over the age of 2 who have heart rhythm abnormalities and require long-term, continuous monitoring.
Therefore, the interplay of the aforementioned factors above would provide a conducive growth environment for the North American region in the implantable cardiac monitors market.
