The global ECG equipment market is expected
to reach USD 6.3 billion by 2022, according to a new report by Grand View
Research Inc. The rising incidences of cardiovascular disorders and government
initiatives to make people aware about health check-ups are expected to boost
market growth. In addition, the change in the medical preference from acute
intervention to preventive care is expected to increase the demand for more
accurate and cost-effective methods for heart monitoring.
According to
the WHO, in 2012, around 17.5 million people died due to cardiovascular
diseases. This is due to the late diagnosis and absence of early symptoms as
the patient fails to keep record of his vital signs.
Owing to the
increasing incidences, government is undertaking various awareness programs.
According to the American Heart Association (AHA), 56% women identified heart
disease as a leading cause of death in 2012 as compared to 30% in 1997.
