The global operating room management software market size was estimated at USD 3.25 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 9.64 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 13.01% from 2025 to 2033. This market growth is attributed to rising adoption of electronic health records, a surge in surgical procedures, a growing focus on cost reduction and efficiency enhancements in hospitals and ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs), and advancements in technology for managing operating rooms.
The market is poised for remarkable growth. With the healthcare sector increasingly embracing digital transformation, these software solutions are becoming essential. They optimize surgical scheduling, resource allocation, and patient data management, enhancing efficiency and patient care quality. As the global healthcare industry expands and evolves, the demand for such software is expected to increase. In addition, advancements in artificial intelligence and data analytics are expected further to drive the market growth over the forecast period.
Moreover, the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases worldwide is a significant reason for the growing need for operating rooms. Severe chronic illnesses often require surgery. For instance, according to an article by the WHO in September 2023, more than 300 million surgical procedures are performed worldwide yearly. This rise in surgical procedures is anticipated to boost the demand for operating room management software, ultimately driving market expansion.
Furthermore, rising investments in developing operating room management software are expected to drive market growth over the forecast period by launching innovative products. For instance, in October 2023, U.S.-based Avail Medsystems introduced a new capability to host third-party clinical software applications in operating rooms as part of broader platform enhancements to improve surgical collaboration, workflow efficiency, and access to clinical intelligence.
Technological advancements in operating room management software are driving market growth. For instance, Electronic Health Records (EHR) improve data accuracy, streamline clinical workflows, and facilitate real-time access to patient information during surgeries. As healthcare providers increasingly invest in cutting-edge solutions to improve patient outcomes and workflow efficiency, the solution providers are seizing the opportunity to provide cutting-edge technology and gain the highest possible market share. For instance, in September 2024, Oracle launched new Electronic Health Record (EHR) innovations in the U.S., aiming to improve patient care, streamline clinical workflows, and improve health data management through advanced automation, integrated analytics, and user-friendly digital interfaces.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the market. The initial phase of the pandemic saw a decrease in the number of surgeries due to lockdowns and suspensions of medical procedures, which negatively affected market growth. This had a negative effect on market growth. According to a study published in the British Journal of Surgery, COVID-19 resulted in the postponement or cancellation of 28 million surgeries worldwide in 2020, with many of these surgeries being rescheduled for 2021. This delay in surgeries has created a greater need to improve scheduling efficiency. As a result, companies in the market have introduced various technologies to meet the growing demand. For instance, in June 2021, Getinge announced the release of the "Torin" AI-based operating room management system in the U.S. This technology aims to address the challenges posed by the pandemic and improve the management of operating rooms.
