Market Report Description

The Global Pediatric Medical Devices Market size is expected to reach $42 billion by 2028, rising at a market growth of 7.0% CAGR during the forecast period.

Medical equipment or tools used to diagnose or treat illnesses and problems in children under the age of 21 are referred to as pediatric devices. Infants, children, and adolescents are the focus of the medical specialty known as pediatrics, which deals with their health and medical care. Since children are more active and physically smaller than adults, these medical devices are built specifically with their needs in mind.

Pediatric Medical Devices Market - Global Opportunities and Trends Analysis Report 2018-2028

One of the main factors propelling the growth of the pediatric medical devices market is the increase in the prevalence of chronic diseases and infectious diseases among the pediatric population. The demand for pediatric medical devices is also influenced by the increased demand for anesthetic and respiratory equipment due to their efficiency in treating conditions like asthma and the rising occurrence of preterm births worldwide. Additionally, in recent times technical developments and new product launches in the field has grown significantly owing to the high demand.

Regulatory and legislative developments have aided in the development of pediatric medical devices, effects of which are also seen in the development of products. As a result, the FDA receives a number of applications for medical devices each year. For example, prior to 2018, only larger-sized valves could be utilized for heart surgery, which is frequently inappropriate for children's hearts. However, the tiniest device that enables surgeons to heal infants and neonates needing mitral or aortic valve replacement was approved by the U.S. FDA in 2018 and is a rotatable prosthetic mechanical heart valve of size 15 mm.

According to a UNICEF report, approximately 700,000 children under the age of five die from pneumonia each year, surpassing any other infectious ailment. Additionally, there have been more regulatory organization initiatives, more pediatric hospitals worldwide, technological advancements in pediatric equipment, and expanding parental awareness campaigns. The biggest players in the market have introduced new goods with enhanced capabilities. For example, Medtronic introduced a new pediatric monitor that warns medical professionals when a patient's airways might be blocked during breathing.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The FDA supported sponsors who wanted to make sure that these devices were set up to specifically cater to pediatric patients' needs. For instance, the FDA granted a EUA for a device that delivers continuous renal replacement treatment and can be used in patients with lower blood volumes or those with acute renal failure, fluid overload, or both. These patients were unable withstand a greater extracorporeal circuit volume in an acute care setting and weigh 8 to 20 kilograms. Despite the COVID-19 outbreak, the FDA emphasized how crucial it is to keep in mind the needs of pediatric patients. Therefore, the COVID-19 pandemic had a favorable impact on the pediatric medical devices market.

Market Growth Factors

Rising respiratory disorder and cancer incidences in children

According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, 15.4 million kids in the US tested COVID-19 positive in February 2023. As a result, the expansion of the pediatric medical devices market is driven by the increasing frequency of cancer and respiratory disorders among children. In addition, the rise in the number of premature babies is another important element driving the expansion of this industry. All these factors are promoting the growth of the market in the coming years.

Increasing birth rate and NICU availability

Many children require NICU facilities upon birth. Children who need NICU care are typically transferred there within 24 hours of birth due to difficulties during early birth, delivery, or health problems following birth. If a child is born before 37 weeks of pregnancy, it is considered preterm. Premature babies are more vulnerable to conditions like pneumonia, sepsis, etc. As a result, market participants have launched a number of devices that would broaden the selection of goods accessible in the neonatal ICU. Hence, the increasing birth rate and NICU devices are promoting the expansion of the market.

Market Restraining Factors

Lack of clinical trials and problems in device manufacture

The danger to a manufacturer's reputation when pediatric medical devices malfunction may be too high for the business to bear. Even if the failure rate is low and parents or other carers are ready to take the chance in the hopes that their kid will benefit, this risk might acts as a significant barrier to entry into the market. In emerging markets, pediatric imaging, screening, and respiratory equipment are less common. Therefore, the leading players are raising the market's profile during the forecast period. However, the lack of market awareness during the forecast period impacts the market's total demand. All these factors significantly hamper the growth of the market.

Product Outlook

Based on product, the pediatric medical devices market is categorized into cardiology devices, in vitro diagnostic (IVD) devices, diagnostic imaging devices, anesthesia & respiratory care devices, neonatal ICU devices, and others. The neonatal ICU devices segment procured a considerable growth rate in the pediatric medical devices market in 2021. For the special requirements of little infants, complicated instruments and devices are used in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). The increasing demand for NICU are accountable for the expansion of the segment. Heart or cardiorespiratory monitors, blood pressure monitors, temperature monitors, and pulse oximeters are a few of the instruments frequently utilized in the NICU.

End User Outlook

On the basis of end user, the pediatric medical devices market is divided into hospitals, clinics, ambulatory surgical centers, and others. The clinics segment witnessed a significant revenue share in the pediatric medical devices market in 2021. The fact that such clinics are primarily devoted to providing care for children can be accountable for the increase. The pediatric clinics offer the most recent clinical knowledge on children's and adolescents' health conditions. It provides a broad range of solutions to guarantee a child's healthy upbringing. These clinics also offer a comprehensive schedule of check-ups, vaccines, and a child's general growth.
