The hospital segment dominated the market in 2017 owing to factors such as increasing cases of trauma and critical conditions across the globe. According to WHO, around 50 million people suffer from injuries every year with about 15% of them dying due to it. Moreover, according to a study conducted by National Safety Council (NSC), U.S., around 4 out of 5 deaths caused by traumatic injuries occur at home or within the first 2 hours of injury rather than in a hospital setting which indicates that there is an urgent need for emergency stretchers in homes as well as ambulatory surgical centers (ASCs).
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017 owing to well-established healthcare infrastructure, high per capita income, and favorable reimbursement policies. The U.S., which is at the forefront of this industry in North America, has a very robust EMS system with advanced life-saving equipment and skilled EMTs who are constantly trained for emergency medical services duties.
Asia Pacific is expected to witness lucrative growth over the forecast period owing to increasing demand for advanced ambulances that can transport patients with greater comfort levels and higher safety standards as compared to those provided by traditional stretchers. Moreover, countries such as India are witnessing an increase in investments from international players looking at lucrative opportunities offered by these countries due to low costs associated with operating them thus making it more profitable for investors rather than buying expensive equipment required during emergencies or ambulances themselves thereby driving this regional market forward over the forecast period.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing incidence of chronic diseases: The global prevalence of chronic diseases is increasing at an alarming rate. This is primarily because of the changing lifestyles and dietary habits of people across the world. The rise in the number of people suffering from chronic diseases will lead to an increase in demand for ambulance and emergency stretchers in the coming years.
- Growing geriatric population: A large proportion of the global population is aging, and this trend is particularly prominent in developed countries. The growing geriatric population will require increased access to ambulance and emergency stretchers, which will drive market growth over the forecast period.
- Technological advancements: Ambulance and emergency stretcher manufacturers are constantly innovating their products to make them more efficient and user-friendly. This has led to a decline in prices over time, making these products more affordable for consumers worldwide. Additionally, technological advancements have made it possible for ambulances to be used for a wider range of applications, such as transportation during natural disasters or mass casualty incidents (MCIs). All these factors are expected to contribute significantlyto market growth over the forecast period .
