The market, by geography, is broadly segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East & Africa, and South & Central America. The emergency medical software market report offers insights and in-depth analysis of the market, emphasizing parameters such as emergency medical software market size, market trends, technological advancements, and market dynamics, along with the analysis of the competitive landscape of the globally leading market players.
The growth of the emergency medical software market is attributed to the increasing cases of trauma injuries and rising healthcare expenditure. However, shortage of skilled professionals restricts the market growth.
Medical emergencies, such as road traffic injuries, are one of the leading causes of death across the globe. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2021, road traffic injuries led to ~1.3 million deaths. Moreover, more than half of all road traffic deaths are among pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcyclists. Additionally, the WHO stated that 93% of the world's fatalities on the road occur in low and middle-income countries. It is anticipated that road traffic injuries are the major cause of death for children and young adults aged 5–29 years. Moreover, driving vehicles under the influence of alcohol and any psychoactive substances or drugs increases the risk of a crash, which results in death or serious injuries. This is one of the major driving factors contributing to the surging demand for proper medical emergency systems, such as incident response systems and ambulance management software.
In 2021, the WHO stated that noncommunicable diseases accounted for 41 million deaths, which is ~71% of all the fatalities globally. Additionally, Global Burden of Disease in 2019 reported ~2.46 billion disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) per year. These fatalities occur due to premature deaths and prolonged disabilities. Moreover, it is also expected that as per one estimate, more than 50% of deaths and 40% of the total burden of disease in low and middle-Income countries could be avoided with prehospital and emergency care. In addition, global total addressable deaths and DALYs that can be avoided amount to 24.3 million and 1,023 million lives, respectively. In South Asia, 90% of deaths and 84% of DALYs are due to emergency and trauma conditions. Thus, the rising cases of trauma propel the growth of the emergency medical software market.
