Furthermore, constant R&D programs to introduce digital healthcare technologies, such as robotics, artificial intelligence, virtual reality (VR) & augmented reality (AR), and 3D-printing or nanotechnology, are impelling the demand for healthcare simulation. In May 2022, SimX, a VR and AI software solution provider, launched a virtual reality simulation for nursing education that replaces true nursing encounters with a realistic nursing curriculum. Thus, the surging adoption of simulators for virtual is fueling healthcare simulation market progression.
High maintenance costs may restrain industry progression
The high cost of healthcare simulation is a major factor hampering the market growth. Furthermore, gears and software need trained operators, which costs extra money and takes more time. Thus, the elevating price of simulation and restricting product adoption. Nonetheless, artificial intelligence (AI), virtual reality (VR), and augmented reality (AR) technologies are expected to aid in overcoming this issue.
Healthcare Simulation Market Analysis
The healthcare simulation market share from the web-based simulators segment is primed to exhibit nearly 16% gains up to 2032. Some key factors contributing to segment growth are advancements in healthcare information technology (IT) solutions and rising digitization in the industry. In September 2022, InSilicoTrials, a medical simulator technology firm, introduced a cloud-based platform for healthcare simulation, which is designed to accelerate digitization in healthcare.
The discrete-event simulation segment accounted for over 57% of the healthcare simulation market share in 2022. Advantages of simulators include the ability to perform invasive procedures without endangering patients and allowing trainees to make mistakes safely is spurring the segment expansion. The DES modeling approach helps in informed decision-making, resource allocation, and patient & staff balancing for long-term treatment results.
The hospitals segment is estimated to depict more than 14.5% CAGR between 2023 and 2032. The segment share is set to increase due to growing patient safety awareness and a strong focus on reducing medical errors in hospitals. According to a qualitative study based on the importance of medical errors, the importance of simulation training among nursing students is high as it propels awareness regarding medical errors.
The Europe healthcare simulation market is projected to surpass USD 2.5 billion by 2032. The regional business expansion is forecast to be complemented by the booming economy and increased private investment to fulfill the rising demand for online and virtual training and meet the requirement of medical specialists in the region.
