簡介目錄

嬰兒輻射保溫器市場規模預計在 2023 年將達到 18 億美元,到 2033 年將達到 30 億美元,2024 年至 2033 年的複合年成長率為 5.2%。

嬰兒輻射保暖器市場-IMG1

嬰兒輻射保溫器是一種專門的醫療設備,旨在為無法調節自身體溫的新生兒提供可控的溫暖。該設備常用於新生兒加護病房(NICU)、產房和小兒科病房,確保早產和重症嬰兒的體溫穩定,並防止體溫過低和相關併發症。

人們越來越擔心全球早產率的上升,這些嬰兒通常需要外部加溫支持才能存活。根據世界衛生組織 (WHO) (2023) 的數據,估計每年有 1500 萬名嬰兒早產。此外,醫療保健提供者和家長對新生兒護理重要性的認知不斷提高,導致對包括輻射保溫器在內的先進醫療設備的需求增加。新生兒體溫過低仍然是資源貧乏地區嬰兒死亡的重要原因,因此對有效的保暖解決方案的需求日益成長。根據影響因子為7.0的開放取用日誌BMC Medicine發表的一項研究,體溫過低在醫院出生的嬰兒(盛行率範圍為32%-85%)和在家出生的嬰兒(盛行率範圍為11%-92%)中都很常見,即使在熱帶環境中也是如此。此外,各國的高出生率和不斷提高的醫療保健意識是全球市場的主要驅動力。此外,私立醫院和專門新生兒護理中心的興起,也導致嬰兒輻射保溫器等先進設備的採購量增加。然而,配備整合監測系統和增強功能的先進嬰兒輻射保溫器通常價格昂貴,難以負擔,特別是在低收入地區的小型醫療機構中,這是市場成長的主要障礙。此外,新生兒培養箱和加熱床墊等設備也旨在調節體溫,這可能會限制嬰兒輻射保溫器的市場成長。相反,整合監控系統、精確溫度控制和安全功能等技術創新正在增加嬰兒輻射保溫器的功能和採用率。預計這些發展將為預測期內全球市場的擴張提供有利可圖的機會。

全球嬰兒輻射保溫器市場分析分為類型、最終用戶、分銷管道和地區。根據類型,市場分為標準和移動。根據最終用戶,市場分為醫院、婦科診所和其他。分銷管道分為線上通路和線下通路。根據地區,市場分析涵蓋北美、歐洲、亞太、拉丁美洲、中東和非洲。

主要發現

根據類型,攜帶式嬰兒輻射保溫器預計將在 2024 年至 2033 年期間佔據市場主導地位。

根據最終用戶,醫院部門預計在預測期內呈現最高成長率。

根據分銷管道,預計整個預測期內線下通路部分將以顯著的速度成長。

根據地區,預計北美將在 2023 年佔據最大的市場佔有率(以收益為準) ,並且很可能在預測期內繼續佔據市場主導地位。

簡介目錄
Product Code: A324446

The infant radiant warmer market was valued at $1.8 billion in 2023, and is projected to reach $3.0 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 5.2% from 2024 to 2033.

Infant Radiant Warmer Market - IMG1

An infant radiant warmer is a specialized medical device designed to provide controlled warmth to newborns who are unable to regulate their body temperature independently. This equipment is commonly used in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), delivery rooms, and pediatric wards to ensure thermal stability for premature or critically ill infants, helping to prevent hypothermia and related complications.

Alarming rise in number of premature births worldwide is a significant driver, as these infants often require external thermal support for survival. According to the World Health Organization (2023), an estimated 15 million babies are born preterm annually. In addition, increase in awareness among healthcare providers and parents about the importance of neonatal care has led to higher demand for advanced medical devices, including radiant warmers. Studies highlight that neonatal hypothermia remains a significant cause of infant mortality in resource-limited settings, further prompting a higher demand for effective warming solutions. As per a study published by BMC Medicine-an open access journal with 7.0 Impact Factor-hypothermia is common in infants born at hospitals (prevalence range, 32% to 85%) and homes (prevalence range, 11% to 92%), even in tropical environments. Moreover, countries with higher birth rates and growing healthcare awareness acts as the primary drivers of the global market. Furthermore, growth of private hospitals and specialized neonatal care centers has increased the procurement of advanced equipment like infant radiant warmers. However, high cost associated with advanced infant radiant warmers with integrated monitoring systems and enhanced features make them less accessible to smaller healthcare facilities, particularly in low-income regions, which significantly hampers the market growth. In addition, devices like neonatal incubators and warming mattresses also serve the purpose of temperature regulation, potentially limiting the market growth for infant radiant warmers. On the contrary, innovations such as integrated monitoring systems, precise temperature control, and safety features are enhancing the functionality and adoption of infant radiant warmers. Such developments are expected to offer remunerative opportunities for the expansion of the global market during the forecast period.

The global infant radiant warmer market analysis is segmented into type, end user, distribution channel, and region. On the basis of type, the market is categorized into standard and mobile. Depending on end user, the it is segregated into hospitals, gynecology clinics, and others. By distribution channel, it is fragmented into online channel and offline channel.
