The global manual resuscitators market was valued at approximately USD 537.37 million in 2023 and is expected to expand at a CAGR of 5.90% from 2024 to 2032. The rising prevalence of respiratory disorders, increasing emergency care applications, technological advancements in resuscitation devices, and heightened awareness of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) are key factors propelling market growth. With the increasing burden of respiratory conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma, the demand for effective resuscitation solutions is rising significantly. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), over 300 million people globally suffer from asthma, with numbers expected to increase further by 2025, thereby creating a heightened demand for manual resuscitators in emergency care settings.
Furthermore, advancements in self-inflating and flow-inflating resuscitators, improved ventilation support technologies, and single-use, disposable solutions to reduce infection risks are accelerating market adoption. The American Heart Association (AHA) reported that nearly 350,000 out-of-hospital cardiac arrests occur annually in the U.S., driving demand for resuscitation devices. With an increasing focus on emergency preparedness in hospitals, ambulances, and pre-hospital care facilities, the adoption of manual resuscitators is expected to rise steadily.
The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted the market, as respiratory distress cases surged, increasing the need for resuscitation equipment. Healthcare systems worldwide experienced a sharp increase in hospital admissions, particularly for patients requiring ventilation support. Manual resuscitators played a crucial role in emergency care settings, particularly in resource-constrained environments where ventilator availability was limited. This led to an accelerated focus on manufacturing and distribution, with governments and healthcare providers prioritizing stockpiling of life-saving resuscitation devices.
North America led the global manual resuscitators market in 2024, holding a dominant market share of 36.93%, driven by advanced healthcare infrastructure, high prevalence of respiratory diseases, and growing emergency response services. The Asia Pacific market is anticipated to witness the fastest growth rate over the forecast period, fueled by increasing healthcare investments, rapid urbanization, and growing public awareness of emergency medical care. The European market remains a stronghold due to stringent regulatory frameworks and a well-established medical device industry, particularly in Germany, France, and the U.K.
