Operating room management software refers to specialized healthcare software designed to streamline and optimize various aspects of surgical procedures and operating rooms. This software aims to enhance patient care, reduce wait times, and maximize the utilization of operating room facilities through advanced data analytics, real-time monitoring, and automated workflows.
The main solutions offered by operating room management software include anesthesia information management, data management and communication, operating room scheduling management, operating room supply management, performance management, and others. Anesthesia information management systems track and record anesthesia-related data throughout surgical procedures. These systems are available in various deployment types such as cloud-based, web-based, and on-premises, and are utilized by end-users including hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers (ASCs), and others.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The sharp rise in U.S. tariffs and the ensuing trade tensions in spring 2025 are having a significant impact on the information technology sector, especially in hardware manufacturing, data infrastructure, and software deployment. Increased duties on imported semiconductors, circuit boards, and networking equipment have driven up production and operating costs for tech companies, cloud service providers, and data centers. Firms that depend on globally sourced components for laptops, servers, and consumer electronics are grappling with extended lead times and mounting pricing pressures. At the same time, tariffs on specialized software and retaliatory actions by key international markets have disrupted global IT supply chains and dampened foreign demand for U.S.-made technologies. In response, the sector is ramping up investments in domestic chip production, broadening its supplier network, and leveraging AI-powered automation to improve resilience and manage costs more effectively.
The operating room management software market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides operating room management software market statistics, including the operating room management software industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with operating room management software market share, detailed operating room management software market segments, market trends, and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the operating room management software industry. These operating room management software market research reports deliver a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The operating room management software market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $2.77 billion in 2024 to $3.09 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.5%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to favorable government support, patient safety and quality of care, regulatory requirements, the need for redevelopment of projects, and cost management.
The operating room management software market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.74 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing demand for minimally invasive surgeries, growing healthcare expenditure, growing surgical procedures, growing medical tourism, and the rising prevalence of chronic diseases. Major trends in the forecast period include increased adoption of AI and machine learning, cloud-based solutions, product innovations, interoperability and integration, and enhanced data analytics.
The forecast of 11.3% growth over the next five years reflects a modest reduction of 0.8% from the previous estimate for this market. This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. Tariffs on surgical IoT devices and imported medical displays may inflate integration costs with OR management platforms, affecting hospital workflow efficiency and budget allocations. The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.
The growing number of surgical procedures is expected to drive the expansion of the operating room management software market in the future. Surgical procedures involve medical operations performed by a surgeon or surgical team to diagnose, treat, or manage various health conditions. The rise in surgeries can be attributed to advancements in medical technology, an aging population, and a growing demand for surgical interventions. Operating room management software is designed to optimize the scheduling, coordination, and efficiency of surgical procedures, ultimately improving patient care and resource utilization. For example, in August 2023, The Aesthetic Society, a US-based organization for plastic surgery and cosmetic medicine, reported that Americans spent over $11.8 billion on aesthetic procedures, a 2% increase from the previous year. As a result, the growing number of surgical procedures is driving the growth of the operating room management software market.
Leading companies in the operating room management software market are prioritizing the development of artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities within their software to enhance efficiency, improve decision-making, and optimize resource utilization. AI integration in operating room software involves leveraging AI technologies to enhance the efficiency, accuracy, and safety of surgical procedures. For instance, in May 2022, Zimmer Biomet Holdings Inc. introduced advanced AI capabilities for its Omni Suite intelligent operating room, aiming to streamline surgical workflow and procedural efficiency. The AI feature automates manual tasks and eliminates unnecessary technology and redundant hardware, using cameras to recognize and timestamp key operating room workflow milestones in real-time. Surgical teams benefit from guided processes and access to workflow analytics, contributing to enhanced operating room efficiency.
In October 2023, Vizient Inc. acquired PrefTech OR to strengthen its ability to assist healthcare providers in optimizing their operating rooms, effectively managing preference cards, and leveraging data and analytics to improve clinical and financial outcomes. PrefTech OR is a cloud-based platform enabling operating room staff to monitor, maintain, and optimize surgical preference cards.
