Medical Device Connectivity Market Drivers and Opportunities

Rising Use of EHR or EMR Favors the Market Growth

The ability to gather, handle, and use data from medical devices has grown more complicated as more devices are used in patient care. To enable data interchange, medical device connectivity refers to connecting medical devices to electronic health records (EHRs) or electronic medical records (EMRs). A patient's paper chart is digitally replicated in an electronic health record (EHR). EHRs are patient-centered, real-time records that give authorized users instant, secure access to information. A more comprehensive picture of a patient's care can be included in an EHR system designed to go beyond the typical clinical data gathered in a provider's office. Modern healthcare relies heavily on integrating clinical solutions and EMR systems with medical device and equipment data.

Based on information from Health IT, a US government website, US physicians used EHR software from 10% to 16% between 2019 and 2021. Physicians in developed nations are using EHR software more frequently, necessitating connecting medical devices to the software so doctors can access patient medical histories. EMR solutions are widely used, and governments in developed and developing nations are placing more and more emphasis on creating national healthcare information exchanges. These factors are predicted to drive demand for effective medical device connectivity solutions. Therefore, the market for medical device connectivity is expanding due to the rising use of EHR/EMR and medical devices.

Encouraging 5G Technology to Boost Medical Device Communication is Likely to Create Ample Opportunities in the Market

A network that can handle high-definition videos and real-time remote patient monitoring is necessary for telemedicine. It can take a while to transfer larger files between departments using 4G or older networks, forcing doctors to waste time waiting for the process to finish. These barriers can be removed by switching to 5G, giving healthcare providers a more efficient network that can keep up with emerging technologies. The next generation of wireless technology, or 5G, offers faster speeds, larger bandwidths, and more capacity to connect devices, which is advantageous to all devices within a network. Compared to standard hospital wireless networks, 5G technology offers 100–2,000 times faster speeds. Doctors can efficiently proceed with diagnosis, prescriptions, and treatment plans while monitoring a patient's vitals remotely due to intelligent data applications and artificial intelligence (Al) in conjunction with connected medical devices. 5G technology's quick speed, low latency, and enhanced data accuracy has the potential to change the healthcare industry completely. Altogether, 5G and Al can potentially advance the healthcare industry significantly. Furthermore, 5G is rapidly being integrated into various medical devices and is a critical enabling technology for digital health and the Internet of Things (loT). Connectivity between devices at home, in the hospital, and anywhere else a need arises is made possible by wireless technology. Wearables with 5G capabilities can send big data packets all day, leading to better patient outcomes from ongoing remote monitoring. Therefore, as the use of medical devices becomes more connected, there is a greater need for networks and technology. One such technology that presents growth opportunities for the market over the forecast period is 5G.
