Report Code: MD 2708 Mar, 2023, by marketsandmarkets.com

Updated on : March 10, 2023

The global patient handling equipment market in terms of revenue was estimated to be worth $10.4 billion in 2022 and is poised to reach $14.0 billion by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 6.2% from 2022 to 2027. The current edition of the report consists of an updated market overview along with updated market assessments across all segments from 2020 to 2027. Also, updated industry trends, technology analysis, pricing analysis, and patent analysis have been provided in the market overview chapter. The current edition of the report considers an ongoing economic recession and provides an impact of the same on market sizing. Detailed qualitative insights on the recession's impact by region have been provided across the regional analysis section. The growth of this market is highly fueled by the growing number of geriatric and obese populations, the high risk of injuries to caregivers while manually handling patients, the rising number of patient admissions in hospitals, and the implementation of regulations and guidelines ensuring the safety of healthcare providers during the manual lifting process. However, the lack of training provided to caregivers for the proper care of patient handling equipment is a major factor hampering market growth.

Patient Handling Equipment Market Dynamics

Drivers: Growing number of geriatric and obese populations

The number of people aged 60 and above has grown steadily over the years. The elderly population is more prone to fall-related injuries, which can lead to different types of functional disabilities and dependence on mobility equipment. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), by 2030, 1 in 6 people in the world will be 60 years of age or older. As a result, high growth in the geriatric population globally will drive the need for patient handling equipment.

Restraints: Lack of training provided to healthcare providers for the efficient operation of patient handling equipment

The healthcare providers spent a significant amount of time in patient handling operations across healthcare facilities. As a majority of time is spent on patient handling, it is important to implement effective training programs to create awareness regarding safe patient handling and to avoid any risk of injury during patient handling. Training plays an important role when lifting patients with special conditions, such as patients with pressure sores or burns, as well as bariatric patients.In the case of improper training, caregivers may gradually move to manual handling as they gain a better understanding of manual handling techniques and may find the use of patient lifting equipment cumbersome. This will hinder the adoption of patient handling equipment to some extent.

Opportunities: Increasing demand for home healthcare services

Globally, a rising number of government regulations and guidelines are being implemented to reduce the duration and cost of healthcare treatments. For instance, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has implemented steps to promote nursing homes and home healthcare to decrease hospitalization rates. In general, providing care at a patient's home is more affordable than doing it in a facility, especially if the available informal care is well utilized. Moreover, with the rising number of new technologies, such as remote patient monitoring, the home care segment is expected to see significant growth in the upcoming years. The rising demand for home care will, in turn, increase the demand for equipment required for treating patients in home care settings, including mobility devices, patient transfer devices, and medical beds, in the upcoming years.

Challenges: Improper architectural designs of healthcare facilities

The physical environment plays an important role in providing supportive workplaces for staff in healthcare settings and promoting health and well-being for patients. According to the American Nursing Association (ANA), the physical environment can lead to restrictions on movement and positioning. It includes facility design, location, and access, including structures such as ramps and elevators, patient care and procedure rooms, corridors, ramps, floor materials, door sizes and location, and the size and condition of storage rooms. Design decisions should be based on the best available knowledge from research and practice, together with the evaluation of existing buildings, a process known as evidence-based design.

The patient transfer devices segment is expected to register the highest CAGR in the patient handling equipment market during the forecast period.

By type, the market is segmented into medical beds, mobility devices, patient transfer devices, stretchers and transport chairs, and toilet assist equipment. The patient transfer devices segment is expected to register the highest growth during the forecast period. This can be attributed to the increased incidence of lifestyle diseases such as obesity, the growing preference for home care among the growing obese population, and the growing adoption of ceiling lifts in bariatric patient handling practices.

The hospital segment accounted for the largest share in the patient handling equipment market in 2021.

By end users, the market is segmented into home care settings, hospitals, and other end users. The hospital segment accounted for the largest share of the market in 2021. This can be attributed to the rise in the geriatric population, the increase in the patient population, the rise in the number of injuries caused during the patient handling process, and the surge in the number of disabled people.

North America accounted for the second-largest share of the patient handling equipment market in 2021.

North America accounted for the second-largest share of the market. This can be attributed to the growing number of elderly care facilities, the increasing number of hospitals and ambulatory centers, the rising geriatric population in the US and Canada, and high healthcare expenditure.
