The rising prevalence of cardiac diseases is one of the major factors propelling the external defibrillators industry growth. Among these, tachycardia is one of the major precursors that promote the disease burden and inflict significant mortality rates. The increasing incidence & prevalence of this conditions, along with its sub-sets such as atrial fibrillation, ventricular tachycardia, supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), and ventricular fibrillation is set to drive the business trends.
Moreover, the rising prevalence of cardiac diseases with increasing age further fuels the risk of sudden cardiac arrest. As per the NCBI, the sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) rates surge with age, and the middle-aged adults (35–59 years) contributes to the higher proportion of SCA cases (30–40%). The use of defibrillators during an event of SCA plays a major role in reducing the complications and enhance the clinical outcome. Thus, the increasing incidence of cardiac ailments, in particular the SCA cases, rising number of hospitalizations, and geriatric population would drive the demand for external defibrillators, thereby augment the industry growth.
