Patient Temperature Monitoring Market Analysis

Patient Temperature Monitoring Market Overview:

The patient temperature monitoring market is expected to rise at a CAGR of 6.8%, with a value of USD 4.1 billion over the estimated forecast year of 2022-2030.

Body temperature monitoring enables healthcare professionals to assess acute illness, inflammation, infection, and antigenic responses. It also assists in characterizing the disease and analyzing the effectiveness of treatment. It is performed using various non-invasive methods and devices on different body areas, such as the mouth, ear, armpit, rectum, and forehead. On the other hand, invasive methods, such as thermometers, probes, and electronic pills, are utilized worldwide for taking core temperature readings of critically ill patients.

In addition, states and communities in different areas of numerous countries are implementing reopening plans. This is escalating the need for non-contact temperature assessment devices to check the temperature of people at entry points in public places, such as schools, colleges, offices, malls, supermarkets, restaurants, and metro stations. Apart from this, these devices act as a commonly utilized screening test for infectious diseases. As a result, a significant rise in their prevalence among the pediatric population across the globe is fueling the market growth. Moreover, wearable devices that can continuously and accurately measure core body temperature and provide live data on smartphones contribute to market growth. Furthermore, as exercising raises the core body temperature, there is a rise in the adoption of body temperature monitoring devices among individuals who participate in professional sports and other physical activities.

The Americas region dominated the global patient temperature monitoring market in 2017, owing to the presence of major market participants & sophisticated healthcare infrastructure and comparatively higher adoption of advanced medical devices in the U.S. and Canada. 

Europe hoisted as the second largest region for the global patient temperature monitoring market owing to increasing awareness of disease-causing deformities along with the rise in the number of numerous surgeries is are expected to provide this market with lucrative growth opportunities.

Asia-Pacific was projected to be the fastest growing region for the global patient temperature monitoring market in 2017. The factors attributed to the due to the growing aging population along with a surge in the incidence of infectious diseases, rising awareness about technique, and increasing healthcare spending in China, India, and Japan.  

The Middle East and Africa holds the least share in the patient temperature monitoring market due to the presence of poor health expenditure and economically diverse countries. However, the market is expected to witness growth due to increasing healthcare programs in the Middle East. Recent Development

The oral cavity is the most accessible and is highly believed to estimate the core body temperature best. The oral cavity is the most common site for measuring body temperature by local sensors. Eating and drinking may affect accuracy while measuring oral temperature. The thermometers are placed inside the mouth and under the tongue, and such readings can be inaccurate.
