The global medical stools market is expected to grow from USD 1.2 billion in 2018 to USD 2.3 billion by 2028, at a CAGR of 9.5%. This growth can be attributed to the growing geriatric population and increasing incidence of chronic diseases globally. The factors restraining the growth of this market are lack of awareness about health benefits, high cost for healthcare facilities, and increased focus on preventive care practices instead of curative care practices by hospitals and clinics.
A medical stool is a seat for patients on which they can either be sitting or lying down. The patient sits on the top of the rod and then moves to an upright position by pushing themselves up with their feet. Medical stools are used primarily in hospitals, clinics, laboratories, and other clinical settings where there may not be enough beds available for all those who need them. Medical stools can also come in electrically adjustable form: these require the user to press a button that will raise one end (usually about 30 degrees), while lowering the other so that it becomes flat.
On the basis of type, the medical stool is segmented into electrically adjustable type and manually adjustable type.
A medical stool that can be electrically adjusted is a type of furniture used for sitting on. The user sits with his or her thighs and ankles resting on the seat, which then moves up to make it easier to stand again. These stools are commonly found in hospitals but may also be used in clinics or other settings such as nursing homes. It is mainly for patients who need to be seated during therapies or treatments. This type of stool has wheels that allow it to move easily from one place to another.
This type of medical stool is made with a lever that enables the height and angle to be adjusted. Manual adjusting stools are perfect for times when there's no need for electric or electronic adjustment, but it has its own shortcomings as well. For example, if a user wants to switch from sitting in an upright position to lying down on their back, they'll have to manually adjust the chair rather than letting gravity do all the work by reclining. That means that this product may not be suitable for those who want maximum comfort at all times.
On the basis of application, the medical stool is segmented into hospitals, clinics, and others.
Medical stools are often found within hospitals because they allow patients who may find it difficult to stand up (such as those with limited mobility) to sit without having their feet touch the ground. Hospitals also use them primarily for hygiene purposes- there has been researching showing that using a hospital bath chair rather than a toilet seat provides more protection against cross-contamination caused by patient contact with fecal material.
The application of medical stools in clinics is for doctors to give their patients a better experience during examinations. Clinics may also have holding rooms or waiting areas with chairs that can be adjusted as needed by the doctor's preference, so this gives them more versatility than hospitals for exams and treatments.
On the basis of region, the medical stools market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Rest of the World. North America is expected to dominate owing to its high healthcare spending per capita coupled with a rising aging population in this region. Asia Pacific will grow at an excellent CAGR during the forecast period due to expanding hospital infrastructure and emerging economies such as India and China.
