Abstract
Description
In 2007, more than 800 million people were suffering from one or more of the
following chronic diseases: asthma, COPD, diabetes and hypertension. With this
number increasing, the remote monitoring of such diseases is being heralded as
a potential saviour of an increasingly burdened public healthcare system.
This report considers the role wireless technologies will play in this cost
saving scheme. It provides a mixture of qualitative and quantitative analysis
which considers the potential for wireless integration within a range of home
consumer monitoring devices as a way of enabling remote patient monitoring.
The study will provide the following:
- 2008 market size estimates and growth rates for 9 consumer medical
devices. Forecasts out to 2013.
- Detailed analysis for each technology considered for integration into each
device.
- A long term view (a forecast for 2018) will include technology splits for
each patient monitoring device. Forecasts are accompanied by detailed analysis
including key drivers and barriers.
- Overview of the current market situation for wireless technologies within
the healthcare environment.
- Profiles of 35 OEMs and IC vendors relevant to wireless-enabled remote
patient monitoring devices.
- Wireless and medical convergence analysis which considers the development
of wireless technologies used within the healthcare environment and telehealth
services.
- Disease demographic statistics likely to affect the market for consumer
monitoring devices included.
The technologies considered for integration within these consumer monitoring
devices include the following technologies; Bluetooth, Bluetooth Low
Energy, Proprietary Technologies, Zigbee, NFC, Other.
Companies who are likely to be interested in this report, are those who are
focused on medical and sports and fitness devices which monitor vital signs,
such as blood glucose, blood pressure and weight and those IC, technology and
semiconductor manufacturers which supply wireless technologies to a number of
different markets.
