The patient monitoring devices market is segmented into nine major segments, namely, hemodynamic, neurology, cardiac, respiratory, fetal and neonatal, multiparameter, remote patient monitors, temperature, and weight management monitors.

The overall patient monitoring devices market was valued as $17.0 billion in 2013 and is poised to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% till 2018. The market is driven by rise in the geriatric population, growing incidences of lifestyle diseases, increased use of home and remote monitors, and technological advancements like portability of equipment. However, the economic crisis and unpredictable reimbursement policies will restrain the growth of this market to an extent. The most fruitful segments for companies to invest in the near future will be neuromonitors, remote patient monitoring (RPM) devices, and respiratory monitors.

The cardiac monitors segment is further sub divided into ECG, event monitors, and cardiac output sub segments. ECG was the leading segment owing to expanding old population and growing incidences of cardiac and diseases such as diabetes and hypertension.

The neuromonitoring devices market is sub divided into EEG, TCD, MEG, cerebral oximeter, and ICP monitor. Out of these EEG was the leading segment owing to the escalating incidences of neurodegenerative diseases.

The respiratory monitors segment is sub divided into capnographs, spirometer, anesthesia, sleep apnea, and pulse oximeter. Out of these the capnography segment accounted for the highest CAGR.

The multiparameter monitors segment is further subdivided into low, mid, and high acuity. The growth will be majorly driven by the gradual increase in the use of low-acuity products in home setups.
