TechNavio today launched its report Global Defibrillators Market 2011-2015 based on an in-depth study covering the Americas, and the EMEA and APAC regions. The report aims to aid decision makers’ understanding of the present and future landscape of the market.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s Healthcare team said; ”The use of implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) and cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillators (CRT-Ds) has increased, hence patients with these devices are followed routinely at intervals ranging from three to six months. In this generation of communication technology, remote monitoring of ICDs is an option that is becoming available for patients. Major vendors are providing devices with wireless technology that communicate automatically with home transmitters, thereby allowing remote patient follow-up and monitoring by physicians. This is one of the trends that the Global Defibrillators market has been witnessing in recent years.”
According to the report, most of the vendors are developing advanced defibrillators to increase their market share because of increased competition in the Global Defibrillators market. Vendors in the market are introducing new battery-operated ICDs that are lighter and miniature in size. Such devices are considered better because they cause less disruption to the body during implantation because of their smaller size. They are also coupled with physiologic sensors to measure the hemodynamic significance of arrhythmias in order to perform advanced functions in the prevention of cardiac arrhythmias.
Further, the report also discusses that the decline in the selling price of these devices affects the overall revenue generation of the market.
The study was conducted using an objective combination of primary and secondary information including inputs from key participants in the industry. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key players.
