Based on device type, the ambulatory ECG monitoring devices market is divided into holter monitors, event monitors, and mobile cardiac telemetry (MCT) devices. The holter monitors segment held the major share of the market in 2023, due to their widespread use in diagnosing and monitoring various cardiac conditions.
Holter monitors are compact and portable devices that continuously record a patient's heart rhythm for valuable insights into cardiac function and identify arrhythmias or abnormalities. Furthermore, the increasing aging population contributed to the rising demand for Holter monitors across various healthcare settings for effective management of cardiac conditions.
The mobile cardiac telemetry (MCT) segment is expected to expand at a significant growth rate in the coming years. MCT devices offer continuous remote monitoring of cardiac activity for extended periods allowing for comprehensive assessment of cardiac function. Additionally, the ease of use offered by mobile telemetry systems and their ability to capture symptomatic events effectively than Holter monitors further propels the segment.
On the basis of end-user, the global market is segregated into hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, cardiac centers, and home care settings. The home care settings segment is anticipated to grow at a substantial CAGR during the forecast period, owing to the increasing emphasis on remote patient monitoring devices, including ambulatory ECG monitoring devices.
Patients prefer the comfort and convenience of home-based monitoring, avoiding the need for frequent hospital visits and reducing healthcare costs. Moreover, the growing trend towards home-based care further fuels the demand for ambulatory ECG monitoring devices in these settings.
Based on application, the ambulatory ECG monitoring devices market is segmented into arrhythmia diagnosis, atrial fibrillation monitoring, ischemia detection, and others. The arrhythmia diagnosis segment led the market in terms of revenue in 2023, due to the the growing prevalence of arrhythmias.
Ambulatory ECG monitoring devices enable continuous monitoring of patients heart rhythms over an extended period to facilitate the detection of arrhythmias and provide valuable diagnostic information. Moreover, the advancements in technology, such as enhanced data analysis algorithms and remote monitoring capabilities, further boost the adoption of ambulatory ECG monitoring devices for arrhythmia diagnosis.
The atrial fibrilllation segment is projected to register a robust growth rate during the assessment years, owing to the growing utilization of ambulatory ECG devices to manage these types of medical conditions. Ambulatory ECG monitoring devices, particularly MCT devices offer continuous monitoring of patients' heart rhythms for early detection and monitoring of atrial fibrillation episodes. Moreover, the increasing adoption of telemedicine and remote patient monitoring solutions facilitates the integration of ambulatory ECG monitoring devices into atrial fibrillation management programs.
