SAGE Sourcebook of Modern Biomedical Devices: Business Markets in the Global Environment is the first accessible, broadly available source of information that presents and quantifies the commercial success of numerous types of biomedical devices available in the global market. It is of great importance, for both the research and the business communities, to identify specific biomedical device types, per major therapeutic areas, most commercially successful in today’s global economic markets, such as in the biggest market (U.S.), in the Pacific Rim, and in the newly expanded European Union. Currently, such vital information is not available anywhere else, definitely not in a unified source and not in a detailed, well-substantiated, reliable, and easy-to-read form.
US Markets for Respiratory Management Devices
US Markets for Respiratory Management Devices
Market Overview
The respiratory management market consists of ventilators, therapeutic obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) devices, oxygen therapy devices, blood gas monitoring devices, and spirometry devices. In 2003, the US respiratory management market was valued at over $1.5 billion. Over the next few years the US respiratory management market will continue to grow, driven by a variety of factors including the demand for less invasive devices, the aging US population, and the expectations of clinicians to treat a greater number of patients. In 2003, the US respiratory management market grew by over 8% and, by 2008, will generate over $2.5 billion annually.
