Market Definition
Critical equipment is essential for patient care under normal operating conditions and whose failure could cause imminent serious injury or death to patients or users. Critical care is also referred to as intensive care. It is a type of care that involves treating and managing injuries and illnesses that are very serious and may be life-threatening. Surgical complications, accident injuries, severe infections, and serious respiratory issues are a few examples of conditions that may require critical care.
Patients receiving this level of care may get better, and transition to other types of care, but many people die in critical care. The equipment used for critical care is known as critical care equipment, which includes patient monitoring devices, ICU units & systems, and therapeutic devices among others. The critical care unit or intensive care unit (ICU) is a highly specialized & dedicated unit of the hospital for patients requiring intensive monitoring of medical, surgical & patient care services. Critical care is administered in an intensive care unit, which in some places is called the critical care unit.
Middle East and Africa Critical Care Equipment Market Dynamics
This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints, and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail below:
Drivers
- Rise in the prevalence of chronic disorders
The change in lifestyle habits, such as smoking tobacco, drinking liquor, stationary way of life, and numerous others, have raised the instances of patients experiencing constant ailment. The rising prevalence of chronic disorders is boosting the market and positively influencing the critical care equipment market.
- Rise in the geriatric population
Expanding illness trouble alongside a quickly developing geriatric populace will significantly affect the critical care equipment market. Besides, the geriatric populace is vulnerable and possesses few irresistible and constant sicknesses. The rise in the geriatric population will positively influence the market and act as a driver in the growth of the critical care equipment market.
Restraint
- Lack of skilled professionals
The lack of capable laboratory professionals is not a new story in diagnosis and healthcare. As with the increased burden of chronic diseases, the aging population and the development of healthcare insurance have increased the demand for healthcare laboratory professionals. Another reason is the lack of training sessions for the professionals.
Factors such as the retention rate, workload, and lack of certification are reasons for the lack of trained laboratory human resources, lack of education, and a relevant degree. These factors hamper the growth of the Middle East and Africa critical care equipment market.
- High cost of equipment
Equipment is needed for medical purposes in every department, such as surgery, orthopedics, chest medicines, and others. Mechanical equipment such as ventilators is required for external breathing support for the patients. Also, the major cost of the equipment depends upon its maintenance.
According to the Supervasi Foundation, one-day expenditure of the price of an ICU unit in India is around USD 67.17 per day, including highly-trained medical professionals. Moreover, ideally, the ICU department should comprise around 2 to 5 pieces of critical care equipment in each hospital, but due to the high cost of the equipment systems and high maintenance cost of the units in poor economic countries or rural areas hampers the growth
Opportunity
-
Growth in healthcare expenditure
Growing healthcare infrastructure helps provide better critical care, leading to faster recovery and rehabilitation into normal life. Also, as an investment in healthcare increases, more people are getting aware and desire advanced critical care equipment and diagnosing their health for precaution and cure.
Increasing healthcare expenditure for critical care treatment also helps patients to take hassle-free advanced treatment for better diagnosis and fast recovery. The spending on health is made up of self-pay or the combination of government expenditure by welfare schemes and sources, including health insurance and activities by non-governmental organizations, due to which faster recovery and rehabilitation into normal life is acting as an opportunity for growing the demand of the market.
An increase in healthcare expenditure leads to the implementation of advanced technologies equipment & products, and better treatment for critical care patients, leading to faster recovery. For this reason, faster recovery and rehabilitation into a normal life are expected to act as an opportunity for growing the demand for the Middle East and Africa critical care equipment market.
-
Rise in technical developments in equipments
Critical care has always been a technology- and data-dependent field. As big data and technology potentially revolutionize critical care practice, professional societies are well-positioned to partner with patients, families, practitioners, researchers, industry leaders, policymakers, and administrators to ensure that humanistic, high-value, ever-improving patient care remains the central goal for the future of critical care medicine.
Recent technological innovations are the predicted speculation about the future of critical care. The rising technical developments in critical care will continue to be multi-professional, with diverse generalists, therapists, specialists, and subspecialists seamlessly collaborating toward the common goal of optimal and humanistic patient care in a learning healthcare system. The wearable technology will optimize staffing patterns by tracking and mitigating excessive workloads while monitoring for mental and physical fatigue and distraction that could worsen patient care
Challenge
- Healthcare staff shortages
Maintaining appropriate staffing in healthcare facilities is essential for providing a safe work environment for patient care. When staffing shortages are anticipated, healthcare facilities and employers, in collaboration with human resources and occupational health services, use contingency capacity strategies to plan and prepare for mitigating the problems, such as adjusting staff schedules, hiring additional skilled staff, and rotating positions that support patient care activities.
The healthcare staff and nursing profession continue to face shortages due to a lack of potential educators, high turnover, and inequitable workforce distribution. The causes of the nursing shortage are numerous, and issues of concern are that some regions have a surplus of nurses and lower growth potential while others struggle to fulfill the local population's basic needs.
Post-COVID-19 Impact on Middle East and Africa Critical Care Equipment Market
Growth in the incidence of COVID-19 patients anticipated to propel the demand for medical devices such as ventilators, spirometers, oxygen concentrators, anesthesia machines, CPAP/BIPAP, and others. Moreover, advancement in technology acts as a driver for its growth in the market. However, the high cost of the devices and the risk associated with the use of ventilators act as a restraint to its growth in the market.
Manufacturers are making various strategic decisions to bounce back post-COVID-19. The players are conducting multiple R&D activities and product launches, and strategic partnerships to improve the technology and test results involved in the Middle East and Africa critical care equipment market.
