The increasing use of MEMS in cardiac pacemakers is one the major trends in the Global Cardiac Pacemakers market. MEMS make use of micro-fabrication techniques to create integrated circuits that produce smaller and more controllable devices. MEMS-built pacemakers are cheaper and less invasive. The pacemakers currently available in the market employ MEMS accelerometers, which are capable of adjusting the heart rate in accordance with physical activity.
According to the report, one of the major drivers in this market is the increasing incidence of cardiac disorders. Cardiac disorders include bradycardia, sick sinus syndrome, atrioventricular blocks, cardiac arrest, and tachycardia, all of which have increased the demand for pacemakers.
Further, the report states that one of the major challenges in the market is the presence of substitutes such as cardiac ablation catheters, which are used to destroy the diseased area with abnormal heart rhythm, and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators, which are used for tachycardia management.
The study was conducted using an objective combination of primary and secondary information including inputs from key participants in the industry. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key vendors.
