Market Dynamics

Increasing geriatric population prone to various medical emergencies such as cardiac arrest, respiratory disorders, and other medical urgency and rising incidences of natural calamities require advanced emergency medical care. According to American Heart Association 2016 report, cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide, accounting for around 17.3 million deaths annually and is expected to reach over 23.6 million by 2030.

According to GRID-Arendal, an official United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) 2018, with the growing population and infrastructures, the world’s exposure to natural hazards is increasing inevitably. Therefore, all these factors are collectively rising the demand for emergency medical services eventually driving the emergency medical equipment market revenue.

Despite the increasing demand, the emergency medical services varies drastically from developed to developing countries. Low and middle-income countries lack comprehensive EMS that can be accessed throughout the country which can be a restraining factor for emergency medical equipment market growth. However, some of these countries are involving international industry players to explore untapped opportunities in emerging economies.

For instance, according to the Journal of Emergency Medical Services, in 2019, India will host the Asian Conference on Emergency Medicine, which is expected to be attended by major industry players, and India is a good entry point for the entire subcontinent.

Government plays a crucial role in the provision of emergency medical services. Therefore, increasing number of government Emergency Medical Service (EMS) programs are considered to be the major factor driving growth of the global emergency medical equipment market. For instance, programs such as Emergency Medical Services for Children, the Office of EMS, and the Division of Injury Response coordinate their efforts for emergency services through regular communications, collaboration, and planning on numerous projects.

Moreover, increased government funding for the management of natural disaster is expected to increase demand for advanced emergency medical services eventually driving the emergency medical equipment market revenue. For instance, in 2017, the U.S. Congress approved a two-year budget that included US$ 130 billion for disaster management. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is the primary federal agency for funding assistance after a disaster in the U.S.
