Global IoT in healthcare market is expected
to reach nearly USD 410 billion by 2022 according to a new report by Grand View
Research Inc. The introduction of technologically advanced connected medical
devices, penetration of smart phones, and use of software automation, to enable
faster patient testing, and provide better accuracy, ease of usage, and
portability are expected to serve the Internet of Things in healthcare market
as high-impact rendering drivers over the forecast period.
Increasing
prevalence of chronic diseases such as heart failure, obesity, diabetes and
hypertension are boosting the demand for technologically advanced medical
devices. The new generation connected medical devices enable real-time patient
monitoring and help the medical professionals to swiftly respond to the patient
needs. For instance, the vital sign monitors, activity monitors, safety
monitors and medication monitors are routinely used for patent monitoring and
medication management.
The growing
geriatric population, and the high unmet medical needs for home healthcare and
long term healthcare services are driving the growth of telemedicine and remote
patient monitoring and these factors are expected to positively reinforce
theIoT in Healthcare market over the forecast period.
According to the data
published by the U.S. based Family Caregiver Alliance (FCA) in 2015, nearly 63%
of the population availing long term healthcare services are people aged above
65 years. This population is expected to drive the demand for technology
enabled healthcare services.
The healthcare
practitioners are increasingly using technology platforms to serve the growing
hospital and patient needs. Moreover, various routine activities such as
patient data recording, data storage and data analysis have been streamlined
using software’s and cloud storage systems, leading to significant reduction in
healthcare operational costs and errors.
The growth of big
data analytics, cloud services and artificial intelligence for healthcare
applications is gaining significant traction. Several leading technology firms
are investing huge resources to tap the potential of the IoT in healthcare
market. For instance, IBM has developed the Watson platform for oncology, drug
discovery, and clinical trial matching. This platform has combined the power of
supercomputing with the huge amount of healthcare research and patient data.
Further more, the use
of RFID tags for medication management, asset tracking and asset transportation
and development of novel products such as smart pills and smart beds are
expected to boost the IoT in Healthcare market over the forecast period.
