ESOPHAGEAL STETHOSCOPE MARKET ANALYSIS

Market Challenges And Opportunities

Global Esophageal Stethoscope Market – Restraints

Complications in the use of Esophageal Stethoscope are expected to hamper the global esophageal stethoscope market growth. For instance, according to an article published by Anaesth Pain & Intensive care, an international journal, in December, 2019, by esophageal stethoscope heart and breath sounds can be constantly monitored and any obstruction of endotracheal tube (ETT) can be readily detected. But, the detection of one lung ventilation due to incidental endobronchial ETT placement during surgical positioning and tissue handling may be difficult. Esophageal stethoscope placement also shows complications such as incidental tracheal and bronchial insertion causing hypoxia, hoarseness, oropharyngeal trauma or bleeding.

Increasing research and development activities by researchers for the development in esophageal stethoscope is expected to drive the growth of global esophageal stethoscope market, over the forecast period.

Research and development activities is projected to increase the production of new esophageal stethoscope, which is expected to drive the global esophageal stethoscope market growth. For instance, according to an article published in National Center for Biotechnology Information on March 7, 2020, a researcher has developed a wireless electronic esophageal stethoscope aimed for continued listening of heart and lung sounds in anesthetized patients during operation. The device consists of a transmitter which amplifies and transmits the developed sound signals via a frequency modulation transmitter and receiver demodulates, amplifies, and delivers the received signal to a headphone to be heard by the anesthesiologist.
