Research
Nester has recently announced its latest Industry research on "Medical Robotics Market: Global Demand Analysis & Opportunity Outlook 2023"Medical
robots allows surgeons to carry out operations in more precise and less
invasive way, medical robots increases accuracy of the operation along with
wide range of advantages such as decreases risk of infection, decreases
post-operative pain and reduces risk of patients life. Along with improved
patient care, another aim of making medical robotics mainstream is to cut down
on medical costs along with improved diagnostic abilities. The world is
currently facing the shortage medical facilities; robots such as Aethon TUG can
complete the work of three full-time employees this can save the man power for
other activities. Adoption of medical robotics in healthcare industry is
considered as a wise step to overcome the global shortage of medical
facilities. Medical robots are mainly used because of their ability to perform
repetitive tasks at high speeds, reliably and without fatigue.The robotic
method poses great benefits, not only in terms of performance, but also in
terms of cost-effectiveness, ease of use and other such factors.
Market Size & Forecast
In 2015, the global robotics
market was valued at USD 4.1 billion and the market is anticipated to reach USD
13 billion by the end of 2023 witnessing a compound annual growth rate of 21.5%
over the period of forecast.
Geographically, North America
is anticipated to have the upper hand over the global market in terms of
revenue share owing to increasing investment in R&D activities coupled with
rapid technological advancement in healthcare industry in the region.
In terms of market growth,
Asia Pacific is anticipated to be the most attractive market witnessing a
compound annual growth rate of 17% over the forecast period i.e. 2016-2023.
This is mainly attributed towards the development of medical infrastructure in
the region.
Surgical robots segment
accounted for the highest market share of 40% in 2015, the market is
anticipated to expand with a promising compound annual growth rate over the
forecast period. This can be attributed towards the increasing acceptance of
medical robots in cardiac, orthopedic, and neurosurgery.
The rehabilitation robotics
segment is expected to exhibit the fastest growth, with a compound annual
growth rate of 20% during the forecast period. Rehabilitation robots are
gaining popularity due to the rising aging population subject to increasing
physical disabilities and this will further expand the demand of rehabilitation
robots over the forecast period i.e. 2016-2023.
In robotic surgery, the robot
is initially programmed and allowed to proceed on its own; there are some other
applications of robotics in surgery where the robot is actually guided by
surgeons throughout the process. The actions of the robot are not
predetermined, but rather controlled in real-time by the surgeon.
Growth Drivers and Challenges
The rising need of advance
technology in healthcare industry, increasing patient pool and extensive
application of medical robots in critical surgeries such as cardiac,
orthopedic, and neurosurgery are some of factors that drives the medical
robotics market across the globe.
Favourable government reforms
towards the development of healthcare industry such as Patient Protection and
Affordable Care Act (PPACA) based in U.S which encourages the market players to
adopt technologically advanced treatment methods, the act provide incentives to
the hospitals to promote the adoption of advance medical treatment in order to
improve the quality of medical services in the country is anticipated to propel
the market growth. Government of developing countries are also taking
initiatives to develop the medical infrastructure of the country, this will
further expand the medical robotics market in public sector.
Increasing acceptance of
medical robotics in healthcare industry along with the increasing contribution
of medical robots in complex cases is anticipated to fuel the demand of medical
robotics in the upcoming 5-6 years.
Various advantages gained by
automation of medical practices such as speed, accuracy, repeatability,
reliability, and cost-efficiency will further spur the demand of medical robots
in hospitals.
Reluctance to accept robotics
in medical sector along with the safety concerns, high cost of the medical
robots are some factors that are restraining the market growth.
