Fetal Monitoring Market by Product (Ultrasound, Electronic Fetal Monitors, Electrodes, Doppler, Uterine Contraction, Telemetry), Portability, Method (Invasive), Application (Antepartum, Intrapartum), End User (Hospital, Clinics) – Forecast to 2019

“The fetal monitoring market is expected to reach $2,346.4 million by 2019 from $1,688.7 million in 2014, at a CAGR of 6.8%. The global fetal monitoring market is segmented based on products, portability, methods, applications, end users, and geography. The electronic fetal monitors segment is expected to register the highest growth rate in the fetal monitoring market, by product, during the forecast period. The high growth in this segment is attributed to the rising prevalence of birth defects and increasing initiatives by companies for developing new and technologically advanced equipment for maternal/fetal monitoring.

Major factors contributing to the growth of the fetal monitoring market include rising maternal mortality, increasing company investments, and rising initiatives by non-government organizations for improving prenatal care facilities. Furthermore, government support in the form of funding is another major factor driving the growth of this market. For instance, in April 2014, the Department of Health (U.K.) invested $16.6 million (£10 million) on maternity units in 63 hospitals for the improvement of maternal facilities in the U.K. Emerging markets in Asia have opened an array of opportunities for the growth of the fetal monitoring market. However, high cost of equipment and stringent regulatory procedures are expected to restrain the growth of this market.
