Electromyography Devices Market - Growth, Trends, COVID-19 Impact, and Forecasts (2022 - 2027)

Electromyography Devices Market - Growth, Trends, COVID-19 Impact, and Forecasts (2022 - 2027)

The electromyography devices market is expected to record a CAGR of 10.1% over the forecast period.

COVID-19 had a notable impact on the overall healthcare industry. As per the article published in 2021 under the title “Musculoskeletal involvement of COVID-19: a review of imaging”, myalgia was a common clinical feature of COVID-19. Moreover, there were reports of a variety of neuromuscular and rheumatologic side effects, such as myositis, neuropathy, arthropathy, and soft tissue abnormalities, that are linked to COVID-19 infection and disease progression. As musculoskeletal abnormalities boosted during the pandemic, diagnostic tests were adopted in a high proportion. Hence, COVID-19 had a significant impact on the electromyography devices market.

The increasing prevalence of neuromuscular disorders, such as motor neuron diseases, myasthenia gravis, myopathy, Parkinson's disease, peripheral neuropathy, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and the surge in minimally invasive surgeries are expected to drive the market growth. For instance, as per the article published in 2020 under the title “The prevalence of hereditary neuromuscular disorders in Northern Norway”, the survey conducted showed that total prevalence was higher in hereditary neuromuscular disorders than previously hypothesized in European population-based studies. 542 people in Northern Norway had a genetic neuromuscular condition as of January 2020. The prevalence was especially high for myotonia congenita and limb-girdle muscular dystrophy. In addition, according to the Parkinson's Disease Foundation 2022 update, approximately 60,000 Americans are diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease (PD) each year. The increasing prevalence of this disease is anticipated to propel market growth over the forecast period.

Technological advancements in electromyography (EMG) systems and the growing demand for portable EMG devices to curb the rising hospital and healthcare-associated costs are the key drivers that are likely to fuel market growth. For instance, advancements in technologies, such as the RS-EMGx EMG System, which enables 4 channels of EMG recordings simultaneously from a single subject, are likely to boost the market growth.

As per the aforementioned factors, the electromyography devices market is anticipated to grow over the forecast period. However, biocompatibility issues with medical electrodes restrain the market growth.

Key Market TrendsThe Portable EMG Devices Segment Dominates the Market Over the Forecast Period

The portable EMG devices segment is gaining traction, globally, as portable EMG devices offer benefits, such as extended care and remote monitoring from the doctor’s clinic at the patient’s home in case of management of chronic diseases. These devices are also used in ambulatory services and other paramedic settings where the electrical activity of the brain is to be measured, to understand the condition of the patient. Conditions, such as heart diseases and muscular disorders, are managed at economic rates, to reduce the number of visits to the doctor or hospitals. Such factors may support the segment's growth during the forecast period.

Moreover, a major factor contributing to the growth is the increasing focus of manufacturers on technological advancements, such as portability, lightweight, and simultaneous raw data acquisition, which may further propel the growth of the segment. For instance, as per the article published in 2021 under the title “Developing a Low-cost, smart, handheld electromyography biofeedback system for telerehabilitation with Clinical Evaluation”, researchers have developed, designed, and implemented an interactive tele-electromyography (EMG) biofeedback device for facilitating patients’ rehabilitation and giving the physiotherapist the ability to develop and monitor personalized treatment for each patient precisely and remotely. Increasing awareness about the prevention of diseases and the available treatment options leading to early diagnosis, as well as increasing healthcare expenditure, are the factors anticipated to drive this segment’s growth over the forecast period.

As per the aforementioned factors, portable EMG devices are expected to witness growth over the forecast period.

North America Dominates the Market and is Expected to Continue the Growth Trend During the Forecast Period

North America dominates the market for electromyography devices, and it is expected to continue its stronghold for a few more years, due to high awareness relating to electromyography, accompanied by high disease prevalence of muscular and neurological disorders. Favorable government regulations and initiatives pertaining to the development of healthcare infrastructure also support the large share of this region.

Favorable reimbursement policies in the United States have surged the usage of these systems for the diagnosis of neuromuscular disorders. The presence of government organizations, such as the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) that provide funding for R&D activities pertaining to the treatment of brain nervous disorders, contributed to the dominance of the regional market. For instance, in August 2022, the National institute of Health (NIH) launched an experimental science rigor initiative. This initiative is part of NINDS’ focus on experimental rigor, good study design, and transparency in reporting, key components for ensuring high-quality, reproducible science.

As per the factors mentioned above, North America is expected to witness a growth over the forecast period.
