The global Internet of Things (IOT) in Healthcare market size was estimated at USD 180.5 billion in 2021 and is expected to surpass around USD 960.2 billion by 2030 and poised to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.41% during the forecast period 2022 to 2030.
Key Takeaways:
The internet of things (IoT) is described as a network of physical devices that uses connectivity to enable the exchange of data. In addition, in healthcare filed, IoT is used for the data collection, analysis for research, and monitoring electronic health records which contains personally identifiable information, protected health information, and for other machine-generated healthcare data. Further, IoT applications in healthcare facilitate important tasks such as to improve patient outcomes, and also take some burden off health practitioners. Internet of Things (IoT)-enabled devices have made remote monitoring in the healthcare sector possible, unleashing the potential to keep patients safe and healthy, and empowering physicians to deliver superlative care. Furthermore, from 2017 to 2022, growth in IoT healthcare applications is indeed projected to accelerate as the Internet of Things is a key component in the digital transformation of the healthcare industry and various stakeholders are stepping up their effort in this field.
The pandemic has caused change in providers' willingness to implement IoT solutions which helped in diagnosing the virus using internet of things. Further, many IoT technology is playing a growing role in helping authorities to prevent the further spread of COVID-19, while also treating those that have been infected. IoT, specifically and especially when combined with other transformative technologies such as Cloud and Artificial intelligence (AI). This led to wide range of applications of IoT in healthcare during this crisis. For instance, According to the WHO, in 2020, patients and staff at a field hospital in Wuhan, China, wore bracelets and rings synced with an AI. This platform from CloudMinds the Beijing-based operator of cloud-based systems for intelligent robots to provide constant monitoring of vital signs, including temperature, heart rate, and blood oxygen levels during Covid-19 pandemic. In addition, in India, the mobile application named as aarogya setu app, launched by the Union Health ministry on April 2, 2020 which helps users identify whether they are at a risk of COVID-19 infection. Therefore, Covid-19 has uplifted the demand of internet of things in healthcare market and provides opportunities for the manufacturers in various applications in the healthcare domain during the forecast period.
The major factors that contribute toward the growth of the internet of things in healthcare market include owing to technological advancements, rising incidence rates of chronic diseases such as COPD, genetic diseases, respiratory diseases, and others, better accessibility to high-speed internet, implementation of favorable government regulatory policies. Furthermore, growing demand for cost-effective treatment and disease management, increased adoption of smart devices and wearables, increasing interest in self-health measurement, and reduced healthcare cost with advanced and cost effectives IoT in healthcare products and solutions. Moreover, rising interest of the startup companies in IoT healthcare industry such as MedAngelONE, Amiko, SWORD health, and Aira, is expected to boost the market growth. However, factors such as high costs associated with IoT infrastructure development, data privacy and security issues, lack of awareness among public in developing regions, and limited technical knowledge are expected to impede the market growth. Various factors such as government initiatives to support IoT platform, improvement in healthcare infrastructure in developing countries, and high R&D spending are expected to boost the market growth.
