Recent developments by key players in Defibrillator Market:
In September 2022- In Chennai, India, Kauvery Hospital established the Restart Heart Foundation. With this organization, more than 100 AEDs were placed at strategic locations throughout Chennai.
Atrial fibrillation, which is distinguished by an irregular and frequently fast heartbeat, can increase the risk of stroke and other heart-related effects in the aged population and in persons with chronic conditions such as high blood pressure, obesity, and heart abnormalities. Atrial fibrillation is the most typical cardiac arrhythmia, according to a report that was released in NCBI 2021. Additionally, the WHO estimates that by 2021, heart attacks and strokes will be responsible for 85% of all cardiovascular deaths. Defibrillators are medical devices that shock the heart with electricity to return it to a normal heartbeat. Arrhythmias are treated or prevented with defibrillators. Defibrillators will therefore be more in demand as heart-related ailments become more prevalent. Moreover, despite advancements in treatment and prevention, sudden cardiac arrest is the cause of about half of all deaths from cardiovascular disease. This is anticipated to encourage market innovation and increase demand for ICDs and external defibrillators. For instance, an ICD is a battery-powered, subcutaneously implanted heart rate monitor. Minuscule cables link a person's heart and the ICD. If the device notices an abnormal cardiac rhythm, it will shock the patient to restore a normal heartbeat. Additionally, it is anticipated that the growing number of products released by different governments and market players will contribute to the market's growth. However, data suggests that operator use errors and mistakes in device care and maintenance are to blame for a major portion of defibrillator failures, even though component problems can account for some defibrillator failures. Additionally, AEDs used in public settings are occasionally vulnerable to failure due to battery, software, and hardware issues. Therapy without defibrillation may be delayed, or fatalities may occur. Numerous defibrillators have been recalled over the years due to technical problems with how the device delivered shocks, electrical problems, and hardware configuration. Defects may lead to poor product performance and patient fatality in the worst situations. Such errors due to defibrillators are expected to hinder market growth.
