Surge Predicted For Oxygen Equipment Market
NEW YORK – A study from Fact.MR predicts that the global oxygen therapy equipment market will reach $3.6 Billion in 2022, registering 8% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) during the forecast period (2022-2027). Demand in the market is predicted to surge on the back of growing use of advanced oxygen source equipment, surpassing $5.2 billion by 2027.
Demand for oxygen therapy equipment is anticipated to grow due to rising frequency of respiratory illnesses, the high prevalence of tobacco usage, demand for home-based oxygen therapy, and technical improvements in the healthcare sector. Further, rising incidences of chronic respiratory diseases and demand for home healthcare will boost the market.
Acceptance of on-demand and continuous portable oxygen concentrators (POC) in a variety of applications such as emergency medicine is increasing. Subsequently, consumer desire for portable technology, and the clinical necessity for mobility support for elderly population will fuel demand.
