세계의 구급차용 스트레처 시장 예측(-2030년) : 유형별, 재료별, 기술별, 용도별, 최종 사용자별, 지역별 분석

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Ambulance Stretchers Market is accounted for $2.34 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach $3.22 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period. An ambulance stretcher is medical equipment used to transport patients securely in emergency situations or during non-emergency medical transfers. For convenience and mobility, it usually has a sturdy yet lightweight frame, height adjustment, and foldable mechanics. Ambulance stretchers frequently have straps to hold patients in place while in travel, locking mechanisms for stability, and wheels for easy mobility. To improve responder efficiency and patient comfort, some sophisticated versions come with shock-absorbing features, adjustable backrests, or hydraulic systems. These stretchers, which are made to fit inside ambulances, are essential for pre-hospital treatment.

According to the WHO, approximately 17.9 million people die each year due to cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), making it the leading cause of death globally.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Growing Prevalence of Medical Emergencies

The increased occurrence of medical crises is driving the ambulance stretcher industry. Rapid and effective patient transport solutions are required due to the rise in traffic accidents, heart attacks, and chronic illnesses. Advanced stretchers with improved mobility, ergonomic designs, and patient safety features are essential for emergency response services. Further propelling market expansion are growing healthcare infrastructure and rising awareness of emergency healthcare services. This trend highlights the necessity for dependable and creative stretchers, which are essential for quickly handling urgent medical emergencies.

Restraint:

High Costs of Advanced Stretchers

The high cost of modern stretchers has a detrimental influence on the ambulance stretcher industry by restricting their adoption, particularly in budget-constrained countries or among smaller healthcare providers. Since many businesses place a higher priority on affordable solutions, expensive stretchers may result in slower market growth. This can result in a preference for less advanced, lower-cost options, hindering the widespread use of state-of-the-art technology that could enhance patient care and operational efficiency.

Opportunity:

Expanding Healthcare Infrastructure

The ambulance stretchers market is heavily impacted by rising healthcare infrastructure, which is being driven by increased investments in healthcare institutions, emergency services, and aging populations. Healthcare providers are adding more sophisticated, long-lasting, and effective stretchers to their fleets in response to the increasing demand for emergency medical services. The need for updated ambulances with specialized stretchers that guarantee patient safety and comfort is increased by the expansion of healthcare infrastructure, which propels market expansion even more. This pattern is especially noticeable in areas where the healthcare industry is expanding quickly.

Threat:

Regulatory and Compliance Issues

Regulatory and regulatory difficulties can have a detrimental influence on the ambulance stretcher industry by raising manufacturing costs and lengthening product development schedules. Strict safety regulations and certification procedures might prevent innovative inventions from entering the market. Businesses may find it difficult to comply with various regional laws, which might have an impact on worldwide distribution. Risks of non-compliance, such penalties or product recalls, might damage a brand's reputation and impede market expansion.

Covid-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic had a substantial influence on the Ambulance Stretchers industry, resulting in increased demand for stretchers owing to a rise in emergency healthcare demands. More stretchers were needed by hospitals and ambulance services to accommodate the increased patient flow. Furthermore, advancements in stretcher designs that use antimicrobial materials and characteristics that are simple to clean were prompted by the need to manage infections.

The motorized segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The motorized segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period because motorized stretchers ease the physical strain on medical personnel, facilitating safer patient transportation and lowering the possibility of accidents. Additionally, they offer improved control over patient handling, which is essential in emergency scenarios. Motorized stretchers in ambulances are becoming more and more popular due to the growing emphasis on healthcare automation, improvements in medical equipment, and the expanding use of technologically sophisticated healthcare solutions.

The hospitals segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The hospitals segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period owing to increasing number of hospital admissions, particularly for emergency cases, necessitates the use of reliable and efficient stretchers for patient transportation within hospital premises. Additionally, hospitals often require specialized stretchers for various medical procedures, such as surgery and intensive care. The growing demand for advanced medical equipment, including stretchers with features like integrated monitoring systems and ergonomic designs, further fuel the market growth.

Region with largest share:

North America is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period because of the growing need for cutting-edge emergency medical care. The industry is also expanding as a result of technical developments in stretcher design, such as ergonomic features, lightweight materials, and integration with monitoring systems. The industry is also being driven ahead by government measures to upgrade emergency response systems and healthcare facilities. All things considered, these elements are working together to propel the market for ambulance stretchers in North America.

Region with highest CAGR:

Asia Pacific is projected to witness the highest CAGR over the forecast period due to rapid urbanization, increasing road accidents, and rising healthcare investments. Government initiatives to improve emergency medical services and growing awareness about advanced healthcare infrastructure fuel demand. Additionally, technological advancements like lightweight materials and automated stretchers enhance efficiency and patient comfort. The region's aging population and expanding medical tourism further contribute to market growth.
