Market Challenges And Opportunities

High prevalence of arrhythmia will drive the overall implantable cardioverter-defibrillators market

The rising old age population and high occurrence of coronary artery diseases are some of the major factors which will propel growth of the implantable cardioverter-defibrillators market. Sedentary lifestyles, unhealthy dietary habits, and lack of proper exercise have resulted into the increased incidences of heart related diseases, especially arrhythmia. The demand for ICDs is rising significantly as healthcare professionals and the governing bodies such as American Heart Association have widely accepted this form of treatment due to its safety, and efficacy. However, the AHA recommends that the arrhythmia in question ought to be life threatening for the patient to be eligible for a cardioverter defibrillator.
