As per the study the market is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX% in the forecast period.
The global medical step stools market was valued at $XX million in 2018 and is projected to reach $XX million by 2028, growing at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period. Medical step stools are an important device for people with limited mobility or who have difficulty standing upright. They provide support to individuals while they climb up or downstairs. This provides safety, stability, and confidence when getting on and off the stool.
Medical step stools are made up of a series of linked metal bars secured by plastic joins typically in alternating configurations such as an "X" shape that when unfolded reveals its full height as well as an additional bar down the center providing stability while standing on it with both hands. It is a chair-like portable device that can be used for people who are unable to get up from the floor by themselves, or as an aid when reaching high places. They were originally designed with healthcare applications in mind but now also find applications in households and other settings where they are needed. A medical step stool comes equipped with one or two steps that fold out so that users may ascend them easily. The height of these steps typically ranges between 12 inches and 16 inches (30cm - 42 cm).
On the basis of type, the medical step stool is segmented into unfolded and folded.
Unfolded
Unfolded medical step stools have a wide base, and are designed with people who can walk but need support or want to reach high places. The steps unfold from the body of the stool so that users may ascend them easily. An unfolded medical step stool is a type of portable, lightweight and adjustable stand that can be used for many purposes. The main use it serves as an aid to help someone access something while standing on the ground or floor, which may not otherwise be possible without a higher surface to work from. Medical organizations often use them in hospitals and healthcare centers because they are safe enough for patients who need assistance with their balance or movements. They also offer easy accessibility when caregivers must reach things high up off the ground by providing another few inches of height.
Folded
A folded step stool is a medical device with four or more steps that can be fully flattened to reduce its size for storage and transport. It has two hand grips, one at the top of stairs and another near the bottom which is usually elasticized so they will grip different surfaces. The body of this product is made up of a series of linked metal bars secured by plastic joins, typically in alternating configurations (i.e., “X” shaped). When unfolded these devices reveal their full height as well as an additional bar that runs down the center providing stability when standing on it while using both hands. As such, folding medical step stools offer benefits over "unfolded" ones because they take up less space when not being used and are easier to transport because they can be folded in half.
On the basis of application, the medical step stool is segmented into hospitals, healthcare centers, households, and other applications.
Hospitals
Healthcare professionals use medical step stools in hospitals and clinics, where they need to reach elevated surfaces such as shelves or refrigerators. Moreover, patients can also use the stool for treating injuries on their own with less risk of injury themselves. In addition, this type of equipment is essential for nurses who are constantly lifting heavy loads from one place to another throughout a shift at work. It’s important that these items be well-made and adequate enough to bear the weight without breaking down under pressure.
Healthcare centers
The medical step stool is commonly used in the healthcare center near the patient's bed. They are designed to help patients and caregivers get into a standing position from any height, including sitting or lying down on a bed, chair, sofa, floor mat, or wheelchair. It also allows people with mobility impairment to transfer easily between surfaces of different heights.
Household
Medical step stools are designed for use by both elderly and disabled individuals. These steps can be used to provide an easier way of accessing taller objects such as a fridge or bookcase, which is particularly important for those who live in houses with low ceilings. With the help of these medical items, anyone will have the ability to reach higher heights without needing someone else's assistance.
On the basis of region, the global medical step stool market is segmented into North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Middle East & Africa. The market size is calculated by the revenue generated through sales of medical step stools to hospitals, healthcare centers, or households. North America accounted for the highest share in 2017 as it has a large population base with aging demographics and a high prevalence rate of chronic illnesses such as arthritis.
Growth factors
The lifestyle of the people is changing which has an impact on their health. For example, more and more people are sedentary lifestyles nowadays which means they stay at home most of the day. There is a need for medical step stools to provide comfort during every activity in daily life from walking to sitting, reading, or cooking. In addition, due to increasing aging population (65 years old-plus) globally as well as increasing chronic disease rates such as diabetes mellitus and arthritis among the adults aged 65 years old-plus will lead to demand growth for these products too over the forecast period while Major lifestyle changes including working remotely have led many workers across offices worldwide spending long hours standing up instead of sitting down have raised concerns about their posture and in turn, overall wellness as they spend much more time on their feet than before. This is because the human body can only stay upright for so long before discomfort sets in resulting from muscles tightening due to prolonged periods of being stood up.
