Dublin, Feb. 10, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Medical Device Batteries: Focus on Implants and Wearable Medical Devices - Market Distribution by Battery Chemistry, Rechargeability, Application and Key Geographies: Industry Trends and Global Forecasts, 2020-2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
This report features an extensive study of the current market landscape and future potential of medical device batteries, focusing on implants and wearable medical devices, over the next decade. The study features an in-depth analysis of the key drivers and trends related to this domain.
The medical devices market currently represents a sizeable segment of the healthcare industry. Driven by the increasing prevalence of chronic disorders as well as the technological advancements in this domain, the market is projected to continue its growth at a commendable pace over the coming years.
According to the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH), there are currently around 175,000 types of medical devices in the US market alone. In fact, since 2019, close to 55 medical devices have been approved by the USFDA and over 7,000 clinical trials focused on medical devices have been registered worldwide. The exponential growth in wearable medical devices and implants, such as hearing aids, implantable cardiac defibrillators, infusion pumps, neurostimulators and pacemakers, has led to an increase in demand for safe, compact, light-weight and high energy density batteries with better cycle life.
Despite the numerous advantages offered by the batteries, including backup power, portability and user-comfort, safety concerns related to premature battery depletion (leading to malfunctioning of the medical device), release of heat when overcharged or exposed to high temperatures and toxicity due to electrolyte leakage may present some impediments in the growth of the global medical batteries market.
A number of companies have developed advanced battery technologies to address the known challenges. In fact, close to 450 patents related to medical device batteries have been filed/granted in the last five years, demonstrating continued efforts towards innovation in this domain. Presently, more than 930 medical device batteries focusing on implants and wearable medical devices have been/are being developed by several players for various applications. Medical device developers have begun using novel batteries to differentiate their current product portfolios, as well as to introduce new product categories. Increasing prevalence of heart disease across the globe is amongst the key factors driving growth of the global medical batteries market. Moreover, the increasing awareness regarding fitness is expected to significantly drive the usage of wearable device batteries propelling the growth of this market during the next decade.
