The Global ICU Equipment Carrier Market size is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 3.4% during 2021-2028 and reach an estimated value of USD 12,959 million by 2028. The growing healthcare sector in emerging economies such as India and China coupled with increasing medical tourism is expected to fuel the demand for ICU equipment carriers over the forecast period.
ICU Equipment Carrier can be defined as a device that is used to transport medical equipment and materials. ICU equipment carries out a number of functions, which include providing the patient with life support and monitoring. It is also used for transporting critically ill patients who need to be moved from one site to another or those whose condition requires special care in an ICU setting. The devices are designed specifically for use in intensive care units (ICUs).
On the basis of Type, the market is segmented into Normal and Specialty-type Equipment. The segment of specialty type shows steady growth in the market, owing to their ability to provide multiple functions for patients with specific needs that are not met by traditional types of ICU equipment carriers.
Normal ICU Equipment Carrier is used for transporting people with a critical illness or injuries to and from the hospital, especially when they cannot walk. They're sometimes called stretchers, but this term also refers to moving devices that are equipped with wheels. The equipment carrier usually consists of an aluminum frame with two sidebars made from wood or metal rods; these sidebars can be folded in so it's more compact for storage.
Normal ICU equipment carriers include:
Special ICU equipment carriers are designed to transport and store delicate, costly medical devices. They are typically used as a replacement for standard containers or carts when the need arises. These specialized carrier systems often include sliding drawers with custom-made foam inserts that provide protection from shock, vibration, or temperature fluctuations. Customized handles on both sides also make it easy to carry heavy loads of fragile items such as patient monitors or other electronic devices. The following is an overview of some specialty products:
Specialty Medical Vehicle – This service provides transportation for patients who have been admitted into intensive care units (ICUs) at different hospitals in order to reduce risks associated with the transfer between facilities where there may be significant differences in clinical practices, technology, and equipment.
Transport Platforms - This type of carrier system is designed to accommodate a wide range of wheelchair and other mobility devices in order to make it easier for patients with limited or no use of their limbs to be transported from one location to another without assistance. These carriers are capable of functioning as both an elevator, which allows patients who cannot walk upstairs, and a human-powered flight device that can carry them long distances at the push of a button.
Specialty Medical Airline – When transporting critically ill patients by air may not be possible due to concerns over safety levels related factors such as weather conditions or remote locations, this service provides transportation via specially equipped aircraft specifically configured for transport purposes.
On the basis of Application, the market is segmented into Hospitals, Clinics, Ambulatory surgical centers, Home Healthcare. A lot of ICU equipment carrier in hospitals is used for preventive maintenance and repairs. It also helps with the installation process which can be complex because different institutions are staffed by a variety of people who may not have experience completing an entire installation on their own. The use of this type of service provider ensures that all necessary precautions, procedures, and safety standards will be followed to help ensure patient care is safe at any time during or after the project has been completed.
An ICU equipment carrier in an ambulatory surgical center is used to transport patients from the operating room back to their recovery area. In this type of facility, there are no beds so a stretcher is needed for transporting patients and also as a means for them to rest during treatment or surgery. The use of specialized carts makes it easier for staff members who need to move around with ease while still offering care that exceeds industry standards at all times.
On the basis of Region, the market is segmented into North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Middle East & Africa. North America accounts for about 16% share in terms of value due to increasing demand from hospitals for new technologies such as surgical theater equipment and other specialties like cardiology devices among others which have been driving the growth across various segments including Home Healthcare (HHC) & ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs).
Latin America will register the highest growth rate owing to rising healthcare spending on medical facilities infrastructure coupled with low penetration of ICU Facilities and equipment, as well as specialties such as cardiology devices.
The Middle East & Africa (MEA) will register a modest growth rate owing to a lack of adequate healthcare financing mechanism coupled with increasing health expenditure among other factors. The high investment required in developing countries like India has been hampering the growth potentials in this region due to limited production capacities by local manufacturers who are not able to meet national requirements for ICU Equipment and facilities keeping pace with business.
