LONDON, April 14, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- "Disposable Medical Device Sensors Market - By Product , Monitoring Diagnostic [Capsule Endoscope, Blood Glucose Strip] Therapeutic - Global Forecast to 2020"

Over the years, sensors have revolutionized the use of diagnostic, surgical, and therapeutic devices in medical applications. Sensors are an integral part of medical devices as they detect even the smallest change in vital parameters. Disposable sensors play a major role in advancing diagnostic and monitoring methods and in improving the quality of healthcare services. Continuous technological advancements in the accuracy, intelligence, capability, reliability, and compactness of sensors have helped to broaden their applications to a large extent.

The global disposable medical device sensors market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.3% during the forecast period . Majority of the demand for sensors based disposable medical devices is driven by the growing need to reduce soaring healthcare costs, increasing prevalence of chronic disease s and rising incidence of healthcare acquired infections. The growing adoption of self-monitoring and diagnostic devices is some other factors driving growth of the global disposable medical device sensors market. In addition to the demand for diagnostic and monitoring devices for home treatment, the increasing demand of technologically advanced single use devices from healthcare providers is also expected to contribute to the growth of the global disposable medical device sensors market during the forecast years.

In 2014, North America commanded the largest share of the global disposable medical device sensors market, followed by Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East and Africa. Developed geographies like North America and Europe are likely to grow at a lower CAGR as compared to the Asia-Pacific market, which is expected to grow at the highest CAGR of 13.8% during the forecast period. Growth in the Asia-Pacific region is largely driven by the rising geriatric population, growing per capita income, changing lifestyles, increasing investments in the healthcare industry by key market players, rising demand for advanced technologies, and expansion of private-sector hospitals to rural areas in emerging countries such as China and India are driving the growth of the Asia-Pacific disposable medical device sensors market.
