The Global Automated Hospital Beds Market report delivers a holistic market transformation. The report comprehensively analyzes key segments, trends, drivers, restraints, competitive landscape, and elements playing a significant role in the market.
What are Automated Hospitals Beds?
At the beginning of technology in the healthcare sector, the latest hospital beds were in favorably in demand. This technological improvement and scientific accomplishments in medical science have carried ahead of a tremendous display of new and modernized medical devices. These devices are allowed with positively developed implanted control procedures and interactivity. In the 21st century, hospital beds are carrying on new builds and functions. The automatic hospital beds come with aesthetic and interactive elements. The automated hospital beds provide integrated solutions for intensive patient care, assistance, critical monitoring based on a comprehensive and multidisciplinary design approach. The automated systems have embedded networking, communication, monitoring, and integrated alarms.
Growth Drivers
Increasing Population is a Major Factor
The increasing geriatric population worldwide is probably another element for the market’s development. According to a report issued by World Health Organization, the world’s aging population, which is 60 years and more additional, amounted to 900 million in 2015, and this number is predicted to grow by up to 2 billion by 2025. Thus, the increasing geriatric population across the globe will donate to the growth of the global Automated Hospital Beds Market.
High demand in paralyzed patients
Some people cannot move when in bed, mainly those immobilized or paralyzed and those diagnosed with spinal injuries. Their ineptitude to shift in bed means a high chance of humidity and temperature build-up on spots in regular contact with the bed surface inducing skin irritation. Furthermore, this could also be the source of normal pressure and friction on those areas, especially the bony or cartilaginous parts of the body (i.e., the elbows, ankles, and knees), resulting in constant pressure on the skin, poor blood circulation of the veins, and the eventual deterioration of tissues that why hospitals are now shifting the critical patients to automated beds.
Opportunities
Growing investments in healthcare infrastructural expansion
The past few decades have noticed a modification in the global healthcare environment. Many governments across the globe have undergone remarkable economic expansion. While the global economic problem in 2008 involved many of these countries, they seem to hold regained and continue to increase, albeit at much slower rates. As a result, these economies have noticed a surprising change in their economic, cultural, industrial, and healthcare environments. This fast growth in the healthcare industry is largely fueled by widespread policy reforms, economic liberalization, the rapidly growing middle-class populations with rising purchasing power, and expanded investments in infrastructural development.
Restraints
Required High Investment
Excess capacity in the hospitals has become a severe problem in technical, managerial and policy issues similar to all around the world and Iran. New hospitals are often constructed with no real assessment in most developing countries, including China and Europe. Distributions of hospitals are in the geographical base rather than need-based. Therefore, international professionals advise stopping hospital beds from spreading and other interventions. Hospital sector policymakers are examining new solutions to the growing pressures, especially the lack of financial resources. It appears reducing with different strategies is one of these answers. But, administrative reform has not been accomplished about hospital downsizing in the country.
Pre Covid-19 Impact on Global Automated Hospitals Beds
Before the Covid-19 Medical beds were the multiple essential assets of any hospital, clinic, or ambulatory surgical center; with the immediate improvement in medical technology, manual medical beds have been changed into automated medical beds. These automated hospital beds are both fully automatic and semi-automatic. The automated hospital beds are provided with advanced and developed control functions and interactivity. The automated hospital beds help to help in intensive patient care treatments, critical monitoring and helping the healthcare provider. These automated hospital beds are implanted with networking, communication, monitoring and integrated alarms.
Covid-19 Impact on Global Automated Hospitals Beds
During the Covid-19 explosion, the pandemic has caused public and health authorities worrying problems. The major and foremost problem that many nations face during the outbreak is a deficiency of medical resources. To examine the effect of a shortage of hospital beds on the COVID-19 outbreak, developed a piecewise smooth model for explaining the limitations of hospital beds. There may be a growing demand for hospital beds, stretchers, and mattresses to raise health care capacity in local hospitals and health care procedures through momentary development sites. Manufacturers from different industry sectors not traditionally associated with medical instrument manufacturing are examining for help to manufacture and market these machines to the healthcare ward. It shows the increase in the demand for automated hospitals beds during the COVID-19 public health emergency.
Post Covid-19 Impact on Global Automated Hospitals Beds
After the covid-19 outbreak, a rise in the covid-19 infection and incidence rates of chronic disorders is expected to drive the market’s growth. According to the American Autoimmune Related Diseases Association, in 2020, approximately a 70million Americans were suffering from covid-19 and autoimmune diseases and spent more than USD 892 million on research and development of covid-19 and other autoimmune diseases. Moreover, the increasing geriatric population increased number of obese people are also likely to support market growth.
By Type Segmental Analysis
The market is classified into semi-automatic and fully automatic hospitals beds based on Type Segmental Analysis. The semi-automatic hospital beds segment will probably show rapid growth in the market during the forecast period. The growth can be credited to its benefits such as low cost compared to fully automatic hospital beds; manual height adjusts characteristics and can electronically adjust head and foot sections. At the same time, fully automatic hospital beds are specially selected in intensive care units.
By Treatment Segmental Analysis
Based on Treatment Type segment analysis, the market is classified into Critical care, Acute Care, and Long-term Care. The critical care treatment component is anticipated to witness a large growth in the forecast period. Critical care directs to the specialized care given to patients whose conditions are life-threatening and who need extensive care and constant monitoring. Acute treatment refers to secondary health care where the patient receives active but short-term treatment for severe injury or urgent medical conditions.
By Usage Segmental Analysis
Based on Usage segment analysis, the market is classified into General purpose, Intensive care, Delivery/birthing, pediatric, bariatric, Pressure relief, Psychiatric Care, and Others. The general-purpose bed segment will conceivably hold the largest market share over the forecast period. The increasing number of patients in the general ward is consistently higher than in other wards such as intensive care units. Hence, to cater to increasing patients with minor diseases or injuries, the hospitals procure automated hospital beds in a large amount.
By Regional Segmental Analysis
By regional segment analysis, the market is bifurcated into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, South America and The Middle East & Africa. Europe will monopolize the largest share in the market. Over the forecast period, the European area will continue to monopolize the market owing to continued innovation and new product development. Furthermore, further aspects like the increasing majority of life-threatening conditions and an increase in healthcare expenditure are expected to promote the growth of the Automated Hospital Beds Market. However, the Asia Pacific region is expected to notice significant growth due to increasing chronic diseases and government encouragement in the healthcare sector.
