Segment Analysis

The holter monitors segment is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period (2023-2030)

The holter monitor segment is the highest market holder in the global cardiac arrhythmia monitoring devices market. The global cardiac arrhythmia monitoring devices market is segmented based on product as holter monitors, ECG devices, mobile cardiac telemetry, cardiac event monitors, implantable loop recorders, patch monitor, pacemaker, cardioverter-defibrillator. The holter monitors segment is the largest market shareholder due to the increasing adoption of these devices globally for monitoring, increasing technological advancements and novel product launches.

Holter monitors are the small and wearable device that records the rhythm of heart. It is utilized to determine or detect irregular heartbeats (arrhythmias) risk. Holter monitors test is usually done if a traditional electrocardiogram is unable to provide sufficient details about the condition of the heart. These monitors can spot irregular heart rhythms that may be missed by ECG. Holter monitoring is non-invasive and painless. The monitor is usually worn for 1 to 2 days in which all the heartbeats are recorded by the device. The sensors and the wires are easy to hide under clothing. The device can be attached to a strap or worn on a belt.

The growing number of regulatory approvals, technological advancements, product launches, and research/clinical trial studies drives the market’s growth. For instance, in January 26, 2022, Royal Philips, a health technology company announced about introducing the first at-home, full-service, 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) solution that can be utilized in decentralized clinical trials. This clinical-grade solution is the highly advanced patient-centric ECG included within the cardiac monitoring portfolio of Philips, site-based ECGs with leading cloud-based data collection and evaluation services of Philips.
