Clinical Alarm Management Market: Current Analysis and Forecast (2023-2030)

Clinical alarm management refers to the systematic process of overseeing and optimizing the use of alarms generated by medical devices in healthcare settings. These alarms range from patient monitoring systems to infusion pumps, ventilators, and other medical equipment. Alarm management aims to ensure that healthcare providers receive timely and relevant alerts while minimizing alarm fatigue - a condition where healthcare workers become desensitized to alarms due to excessive or irrelevant notifications. The growing prevalence of chronic diseases and rising hospital admissions are leading to the market's growth. Several other factors, such as growing hospital care, rising research & development activities, rising healthcare expenditure, rising regulatory support, and a surge in government collaborations & partnerships are driving the clinical alarm management market globally.

The Clinical Alarm Management Market is expected to grow at a steady rate of around 20.2% owing to the rising product launches. For instance, in April 2023, MedTech software company Implicity launched a new algorithm for lowering alert fatigue in the remote monitoring of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), this new AF Alert Management feature will reduce alerts for patients being treated with anticoagulants. Several factors, including and rising development of IT infrastructure in healthcare are driving the market's growth during the forecast period. Apart from this, long hospital stays and technological advancement in clinical alarm management are also driving this market of clinical alarm management at a steady rate.

Based on the component, the market is bifurcated into solutions and services. The solutions segment dominated the market in the year 2022 owing to technological advancements. For instance, in March 2021, Climax Technology launched the GX-DT35B medical alarm system, which is equipped with several features like better visualization of battery level and cellular signal strength, smart home automation, location tracking, voice control, and many more. The solutions segment typically refers to software and technological solutions designed to help healthcare facilities effectively manage and prioritize alarms from medical devices. These solutions include alarm surveillance, analytics, integration with electronic health records (EHRs), and customizable settings to reduce alarm fatigue and improve patient safety. They aim to streamline alarm notifications, provide actionable insights, and enhance workflow efficiency for healthcare providers. Thus, among the components, the solutions segment held a significant market share in 2022.

Based on the end user, the market is categorized into hospitals, long-term care centers, and others. The long-term care centers segment is expected to hold a significant share of the market in the forecast period owing to the rising chronic disease cases. For instance, in March 2022, the National Library of Medicine reported that about 21% of the geriatric population in India reportedly have at least one chronic disease. 17% geriatric population in rural areas and 29% in urban areas suffer from a chronic disease. Hypertension and diabetes account for about 68% of all chronic diseases. The long-term care centers focus on providing solutions tailored to the unique needs of facilities such as nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and rehabilitation centers. These solutions address the specific challenges faced in long-term care settings, such as managing alarms from wearable devices, monitoring residents with chronic conditions, and ensuring timely response to critical alerts while minimizing unnecessary disruptions. Features include customizable alarm settings, remote monitoring capabilities, integration with electronic health records, and support for caregiver communication and coordination. Thus, the long-term care centers category will witness a higher CAGR amongst end users during the forecast period.
