The global body temperature monitoring market size reached USD 2.0 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 3.5 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 6.14% during 2025-2033. The increasing prevalence of viral infections, rising number of airborne diseases, and the growing demand for RPM represent some of the key factors driving the market.
Body temperature monitoring refers to the process of measuring and tracking the temperature of the human body for identifying changes in temperature, which can be a sign of an underlying health issue. It can be measured by placing a thermometer in the mouth, under the armpit, in the ear, or rectally. It can also be determined through wearable devices, including smartwatches and fitness trackers, that rely on sensors to detect changes in the temperature of the body. It allows healthcare professionals to assess acute illness, inflammation, infection, and antigenic responses. It also aids in indicating the disease and analyzing the effectiveness of the treatment.
The surging prevalence of chronic diseases and viral infections that can cause fever or other changes in the body represents one of the major factors driving the demand for body temperature monitoring to observe the progression of the illness and track the effectiveness of a treatment. Moreover, increasing airborne diseases that can cause changes in body temperature on account of the rising air pollution levels is catalyzing the demand for body temperature monitoring. This, coupled with the growing geriatric population, which is more susceptible to different medical conditions, such as influenza, pneumonia, malaria, rheumatoid arthritis, ulcerative colitis, and endocarditis, is influencing the market positively. In addition, the increasing demand for remote patient monitoring (RPM) and significant improvements in the healthcare sector is favoring the growth of the market. Apart from this, the rising adoption of body temperature monitoring devices in commercial complexes, such as shopping malls, schools, restaurants, theatres, and stores, for minimizing the risk of transmitting the infections is contributing to the market growth. Furthermore, there is an increase in the adoption of wearable devices that can be connected with smart devices for collecting patient data in real time. This, along with the growing utilization of mobile health (m-health) applications, is propelling the growth of the market. Besides this, the growing adoption of body temperature monitoring devices among individuals who participate in professional sports and other physical activities to gain knowledge and detailed insights about body heat and improve performance is creating a positive outlook for the market.
