Global DECG market set to grow at a CAGR of 9.6%

The diagnostic ECG market has broadly been categorized into three segments: the rest systems, stress systems and the holter systems. These devices are non-invasive devices used to measure the electrical activity of the heart. Among the three systems, the rest system are the most widely used as they cost only half as much as stress systems, and are also more space-efficient as they do not require a treadmill or a bicycle. The diagnostic ECG market is expected to grow from $2.3 billion in 2009 to about $4.1 billion on 2014 at a CAGR of 9.6%.

The U.S. is the largest market for diagnostic ECG, accounting for about 30% of the overall market. This market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.7% from 2009 to 2014. The major factor driving this market is the rise in the aging population as about 38 million people in this age group are diagnosed with cardiovascular diseases.

With price playing a major factor in this market, original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) have introduced portable and low cost equipments in the market to stay competitive. New product launches accounted for about 58% of all competitive developments between 2008 and 2010. Among these GE Healthcare has contributed about 26% to the market with new products.

Competitive Landscape of the DECG Market

GE Healthcare has launched low cost portable ECG devices such as the MAC 400 and 600 in the rural market in India. On the other hand, R&D activity accounted for only 5% of all competitive developments in the DECG market. In addition to investing in R&D in the outpatient cardiac telemetry sector; companies are also forming collaborations and joint ventures to enter and strengthen their market positions. For instance, IntriCon Inc acquired Datrix Corp. (leading company in the cardiac monitoring devices segment), to launch its Mobile Patient ECG Telemetry services. U.S.-based Mortara Instruments has partnered with Browndove Healthcare to market its products in India. With leading companies shifting their manufacturing facilities to India and China, companies like Welch Allyn are tying up with local established companies (BPL) to take advantage of the growing market demand.
