The market is divided into the following segments based on geography:
- Americas
- APAC
- EMEA

According to the report, the increase in demand for homecare patient monitoring systems is driving the market growth. Aged and critically ill individuals cannot afford frequent visits to health centers and they often require monitoring on a daily basis. Home monitoring, therefore, is a convenient and cost-effective alternative that helps patients monitor their health regularly. The demand for wireless multiparameter home use monitors is likely to propel the growth of the market during the forecast period. There is an increased need for the continuous monitoring of individuals with chronic disorders, such as hypertension. To reduce hospital cost and hospital stay, individuals are preferring home-based healthcare monitoring. Thus, to measure chronic conditions, most people prefer digital, portable, and user-friendly multiparameter patient monitors that can be used at home. The focus on quality care and disease management will lead to an increase in the adoption of portable, self-care, multiparameter patient monitoring devices, especially in developed countries. Thus, individuals with low or high blood pressure can take better care of themselves at home.

Further, the report states that as the market is highly competitive with the presence of a few established vendors and many new and small companies, both global and local vendors offer a wide range of patient monitoring equipment at lesser price. Global companies invest significantly in the marketing, promotion, and improvement of their brand quality to gain profit margins. However, intense competition in the market leads to price wars. This causes global vendors to lower the average selling prices of their devices to compete for high volume and low-cost sales agreements. Vendors also offer discounts, which further contributes to market competition. As a result, vendors, particularly leading companies, are operating on low profit margins.
