Healthcare Actuator Market Drivers and Opportunities

Rising Geriatric Population to Favor Market

Actuators are used in medical equipment, including medical beds and wheelchairs. The elderly population mostly uses this equipment. For instance, the medical bed is one of the most important requirements for old patients as it provides maximum comfort, better positioning, safety, and easy access to caregivers. For instance, osteoporosis is a major health issue in an aging population that later leads to various bone-related chronic complications. The number of aging people with bone disorders is increasing due to increased lifespan, lifestyle diseases, and calcium deficiency worldwide. As per WHO 2050, more than 80% of the old population will live in low- and middle-income countries. Furthermore, Between 2015 and 2050, the percentage of the world's population over 60 years will nearly double from 12% to 24%. Thus, the increasing geriatric population is projected to drive the healthcare actuator market.

Rising Medical Tourism in Developing Countries – An Opportunity in the Healthcare Actuator Market

The developing markets in emerging countries are providing better opportunities for the major players to expand their business in the healthcare actuator market. Most market players focus on emerging markets, such as Asia Pacific, due to an increase in the dominance of chronic diseases, such as diabetes, and rising medical tourism in the region. In India, medical science has spread rapidly and has made big steps forward in the healthcare domain over the past few decades. Several Asian countries, including India, Thailand, and Singapore, are becoming the destinations for medical tourists. Poland is steadily growing as one of Europe's favorite medical tourism destinations.
