The anticipated increase in the prevalence of chronic diseases is expected to propel the growth of the medical electronics market. Chronic diseases, characterized by lasting for three months or more and potentially worsening over time, are effectively managed through continuous monitoring, early detection, and remote patient care facilitated by medical electronics. These technologies support data-driven healthcare, enhance medication management, and contribute to an improved quality of life for patients. The proactive role of medical electronics in preventing complications and reducing healthcare costs addresses the challenges posed by the escalating burden of chronic diseases, particularly in aging populations. For example, in April 2025, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a U.S.-based national public health agency, reported that in 2023, 76.4% (about 194 million) of U.S. adults had one or more chronic conditions, including 59.5%, 78.4%, and 93.0% of young, midlife, and older adults, respectively. Additionally, 51.4% (around 130 million) of U.S. adults reported having multiple chronic conditions (MCC), with prevalence rates of 27.1%, 52.7%, and 78.8% among young, midlife, and older adults, respectively. Therefore, the rising prevalence of chronic diseases is driving the growth of the medical electronics market.

Companies in the medical electronics market are focusing on developing innovative wearable biosensing devices for continuous, non-invasive health monitoring to enhance patient comfort, real-time data collection, and telehealth efficiency. A wearable biosensing device is a flexible, skin-adhesive electronic patch that integrates sensors, microcontrollers, and wireless modules to capture physiological signals such as ECG, respiration, and motion. Unlike traditional bulky hospital monitors, it allows long-duration, mobile, and at-home monitoring. For example, in November 2023, DuPont, a U.S.-based specialty materials company, in collaboration with STMicroelectronics, a Switzerland-based semiconductor manufacturer, introduced the Liveo(TM) Smart Biosensing Patch prototype. The product combines DuPont's medical-grade skin adhesive materials with ST's embedded sensors and Bluetooth microcontroller to enable synchronized monitoring of electrical and mechanical cardiac activity, respiratory rate, and motion. It includes ultra-low power management for extended wear, soft comfortable materials for patient comfort, and a scalable design for remote cardiac and vital-sign monitoring applications.

In November 2023, Boston Scientific Corporation, a U.S.-based provider of interventional medical devices, purchased Relievant Medsystems, Inc. for an upfront payment of $850 million, along with additional contingent payments tied to sales performance over the following three years. This acquisition strengthens Boston Scientific's expertise in neuromodulation and pain management technologies, broadens its portfolio with the Intracept Intraosseous Nerve Ablation System for treating vertebrogenic chronic low back pain, and reinforces its position as a leading provider of minimally invasive, electronically driven therapeutic solutions. Relievant Medsystems, Inc. is a U.S.-based developer of intraosseous nerve ablation systems and minimally invasive medical devices.
