Oxygen therapy, or supplemental oxygen, refers to a medical treatment that involves using an additional oxygen source to manage the blood oxygen levels and prevent carbon monoxide toxicity. It is commonly used for conditions, such as hypoxia, hypoxemia, pneumonia and asthma. Oxygen is administered in liquid or gaseous form, which is transferred through a cannula, face mask or hyperbaric oxygen chamber. They are also attached to other medical devices, such as ventilators and continuous positive airway pressure machines, to improve the efficiency of the treatment. Healthcare centers are also using novel portable tanks and oxygen concentrators to provide point-of-care (POC) and convenient oxygen therapy treatments to the patients.
The increasing prevalence of various respiratory disorders, such as pneumonia, cystic fibrosis, asthma, dysplasia and sleep apnea, across the globe is one of the key factors creating a positive outlook for the market growth. Oxygen therapy is used to improve the transfer of oxygen from alveoli to the blood, cell metabolism and tissue oxygenation, which are essential for normal physiological functioning. Furthermore, increasing consumption of nicotine and tobacco products, along with the rising geriatric population, which is more susceptible to such ailments, is providing a thrust to the growth of the market. Additionally, the development of cost-effective, rapid and accurate oxygen therapy devices and the increasing preference for oxygen therapy among doctors, physicians, surgeons and patients are also creating a positive outlook for the market. Other factors, including rising healthcare expenditure capacities, along with extensive research and development (R&D) activities, are anticipated to drive the market further.
