세계의 일회용 의료용 센서 시장 규모는 2024년에 94억 달러에 달했습니다. 향후 IMARC Group에서는 2033년에는 175억 달러에 달하며, 2025-2033년의 성장률(CAGR)은 7.1%에 달할 것으로 예측하고 있습니다. 수술 후 재활 및 고령 환자 모니터링을 위한 PoC(Point of Care) 및 재택 진단 기기의 채택이 증가하고 있으며, 헬스케어 인프라의 지속적인 개선이 시장 성장을 촉진하고 있습니다.
재택 환자 모니터링 수요 증가
병원이나 의사가 기존 진료소 이외의 장소에서 환자를 모니터링할 수 있게 됨에 따라 원격 환자 모니터링에 대한 요구가 증가하고 있으며, 일회용 의료용 센서 시장 점유율을 자극하고 있습니다. 메디케어 메디케이드 서비스 센터(CMS)는 매년 환자 모니터가 재입원을 피하는 데 도움이 된다고 보고하고 있습니다. 또한 원격 모니터링을 도입한 미국에서는 재입원율이 76% 감소하고, 환자 만족도는 평균 89%, 총 의료비는 약 3억 7,000만 달러를 절감한 것으로 보고되고 있습니다. 그 결과, 다양한 세계 기업 및 소규모 기업이 일회용 의료용 센서를 제공하고 있으며, 이 또한 중요한 성장 촉진요인으로 작용하고 있습니다. 이러한 센서를 제공하는 유명 기업으로는 Smiths Medical, Mediaid 등이 있습니다. 이 외에도 제조업체들은 공공장소에서도 환자가 휴대할 수 있는 의료기기를 도입하고 있습니다. 예를 들어 2020년 7월 BioIntelliSense와 Philips는 전략적 파트너십을 체결하여 위험에 처한 개인에 대한 원격 환자 모니터링을 강화했습니다. 이 제휴를 통해 의사는 병원에서 치료받는 환자를 집에서 쉽게 관찰할 수 있게 되었습니다.
의료용 센서의 끊임없는 발전
주요 기업은 미세전자기계시스템(MEMS) 센서 기술, 암 추적 센서, 광섬유 기술 개발 등 새로운 기술 도입에 주력하고 있으며, 이는 일회용 의료용 센서 시장 수요를 자극하고 있습니다. 이 외에도 이러한 기술 혁신은 장비 사용을 단순화하고, 생산성을 향상시키며, 환자의 건강 증진을 편리하게 만들어 비즈니스를 강화하고 있습니다. 예를 들어 2021년 일회용 의료용 센서 시장에서 OMNIVISION Technologies, Inc.는 지난 6월 일회용 및 재사용 가능한 내시경용 8메가픽셀(MP) 해상도 센서를 최초로 출시했습니다. 마찬가지로 2022년 4월, Variohm EuroSensor는 의료기기용으로 특별히 설계된 NTC 서미스터를 발표하여 의료 영역의 주변 온도와 체내의 미세한 온도 변화를 감지합니다. 이와는 별도로 2022년 2월, 엔실리카는 웨어러블 의료기기 및 헬스케어 기기의 생체 신호를 모니터링하기 위한 초저전력 헬스케어 센서 인터페이스인 ENS62020을 개발했습니다. 이러한 발전으로 일회용 의료용 센서 시장 가격은 앞으로도 계속 자극을 받을 것으로 보입니다.
규제 당국의 승인
새로운 일회용 의료용 센서의 개발은 정부 기관의 규제 승인 건수가 증가하고 있기 때문입니다. 예를 들어 2020년 7월, 바이오센서 기술의 선도기업인 ivWatch, LLC는 혈관외 침윤 및 말초정맥 침윤 사건의 조기 발견을 위한 SmartTouchTM 일회용 센서에 대한 식품의약국(FDA) 승인을 획득했습니다. 이번 FDA 승인으로 ivWatch 센서의 포트폴리오가 확장되어 수액 센터, 병원 및 기타 의료시설에 환자 안전을 강화하고 정맥주사 치료에 따른 위험을 최소화할 수 있는 보완적인 센서 솔루션을 제공할 수 있게 되었습니다.
The global disposable medical sensors market size reached USD 9.4 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 17.5 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 7.1% during 2025-2033. The increasing adoption of point-of-care (PoC) and at-home diagnostic devices to monitor post-operative rehabilitation and elderly patients, along with the continuous improvements in the healthcare infrastructures, are bolstering the market growth.
The Increasing Demand for In-Home Patient Monitoring
The increasing need for remote patient monitoring, as it allows hospitals and physicians to monitor patients outside of the conventional clinic setting, is stimulating the disposable medical sensors market share. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) reported that every year, patient monitors aid individuals in avoiding being readmitted to the hospital. Moreover, users who adopted remote monitoring reported a 76% reduction in readmission rates, an average of 89% patient satisfaction, and a total medical cost savings of nearly US$ 370 Million. Consequently, various global and small-scale companies are providing disposable medical sensors, which is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. Some of the prominent players offering these sensors include Smiths Medical and Mediaid. Besides this, manufacturers are also introducing medical devices that help patients to carry even in public spaces. For example, in July 2020, BioIntelliSense and Philips entered into a strategic partnership to enhance remote patient monitoring for individuals at risk. The collaboration made it easier for doctors to keep an eye on patients who are being treated in hospitals at home.
Continuous Advancements in Medical Sensors
The key players are focusing on introducing novel technologies, including the development of micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) sensor technology, cancer tracking sensors, and fiber optic technology, which, in turn, is catalyzing the disposable medical sensors market demand. In addition to this, these innovations enhance business by simplifying the use of the device, increasing productivity, and making it convenient for patients to improve their health. For example, in the disposable medical sensors market in 2021, the first 8-megapixel (MP) resolution sensors for single-use and reusable endoscopes were launched by OMNIVISION Technologies, Inc., in the month of June. Similarly, in April 2022, Variohm EuroSensor introduced a NTC thermistor, which was specifically designed for medical equipment use and sensing ambient medical area temperatures and small temperature changes in the body. Apart from this, in February 2022, EnSilica developed the ENS62020, an ultra-low-power healthcare sensor interface to monitor vital signs in wearable medical and healthcare devices. These advancements will continue to stimulate the disposable medical sensors market price in the coming years.
Regulatory Approvals
The development of novel disposable medical sensors can be attributed to the rising number of regulatory approvals by government bodies. For example, in July 2020, ivWatch, LLC, a prominent player in biosensor technology, received Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clearance for its SmartTouchTM disposable sensor for the early detection of extravasation and peripheral IV infiltration events. This new FDA clearance expanded the ivWatch sensor portfolio to provide infusion centers, hospitals, and other healthcare facilities with complementary sensor solutions to enhance patient safety and minimize the risks associated with IV therapy.
