The global demand for Hand Held Pulse Oximeters Market is presumed to reach the market size of nearly USD 5.17 BN by 2030 from USD 2.67 BN in 2022 with a CAGR of 8.6% under the study period 2023 - 2030.
A hand-held pulse oximeter is a medical device used to measure a person's oxygen saturation levels in the blood. This small, portable device can be held in hand and attached to a person's fingertip, earlobe, or toe to measure oxygen levels non-invasively. The hand-held pulse oximeter works by emitting light waves through the skin and measuring the amount of light absorbed by the blood. Oxygenated blood absorbs more light than deoxygenated blood, so the device is able to calculate the oxygen saturation% in the blood based on the difference in light absorption.
Market Dynamics
The increasing prevalence of respiratory diseases is driving the demand for hand-held pulse oximeters. These devices are used to monitor oxygen saturation levels in patients with respiratory conditions and are essential for managing their care. The awareness about the importance of respiratory monitoring, particularly after the COVID-19 pandemic, has been an increased demand for hand-held pulse oximeters. Many individuals are now monitoring their oxygen saturation levels at home to detect early signs of respiratory distress. Moreover, advanced hand-held pulse oximeters that are smaller, more accurate, and easier to use are also supporting the market growth. These devices are equipped with features such as Bluetooth connectivity, alarms, and data storage capabilities, making them more convenient for both healthcare professionals and patients. The growing geriatric population is also driving the demand for hand-held pulse oximeters. Older adults are more prone to respiratory illnesses and require regular monitoring of their oxygen levels, thereby supporting the growth of hand-held pulse oximeters. The trend towards home healthcare is also driving the demand for hand-held pulse oximeters. Many individuals are now managing their healthcare needs at home, and hand-held pulse oximeters are a key tool for monitoring oxygen saturation levels in patients with respiratory conditions.
