Surgical booms, also known as equipment columns or supply heads, are installed in healthcare facilities as they provide easy access to electrical power; audiovisual data services; and medical gasses such as oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide. Booms reduce the clutter caused by the cords and thus eliminate the risk of tripping hazards. They also have shelves that help in organizing and centralizing surgical equipment. The increasing number of surgeries, and the benefits of surgical booms such as flexibility, enhanced safety, and mobility are the major factor propelling the market growth. However, the troublesome functioning of surgical booms in hybrid operating rooms restricts the market growth.
Spike in the number of hospital admissions due to increase in geriatric population, mounting prevalence of chronic diseases, and surge in number of accidents, among others, has led to rise in number surgical procedures.
