Global Blood Pressure Cuffs Market Drivers
Leading manufactures are focused on manufacturing products in the global blood pressure cuffs market. For instance, in 2019, Omron Corporation launched Heartguide, a first blood pressure monitor in the form of a wristwatch. Heartguide consist of an inflatable cuff in the wristband, which inflates and records blood pressure of the patients. The device has capacity of recording around 100 readings and the readings are transferable to mobile app called Heartadvisor. Heartguide received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (U.S. FDA) approval in December 2018.
Moreover, another market player Withings is waiting for the U.S. FDA approval for its product BPM Core, which is a 3-in-1 device that can measure blood pressure, electrocardiogram (ECG), and act as a stethoscope when placed near the heart, and can monitor valvular heart diseases in patients.
Global Blood Pressure Cuffs Market Restraints
There are some drawbacks reported in the use of digital blood pressure cuffs. For instance, the digital blood pressure cuffs available in the market can be used by patients directly for their personal use, for measurement of blood pressure. The improper size and positioning of the cuffs on the arm, may result in error in recording the blood pressure and may lead to improper diagnosis of the condition. The conventional blood pressure monitoring device are alternatives for the digital blood pressure devices such as mercury-based blood pressure measuring devices and mechanical blood pressure measuring devices, which are used in clinics and the point-of-care services record the accurate blood pressure as compared to the digital devices.
New modifications of blood pressure monitoring devices such as in the form of wrist watch, wireless, BPM Core, and others are expensive and require maintenance compared to conventional blood pressure monitoring devices used in the clinics. These factors are expected to restrain the global blood pressure cuffs market growth over the forecast period.
