Pressure relief devices such as beds, mattresses, heel troughs, splints are used as part of the treatment to reduce or relieve the pressure on the ulcer. These devices require a power source to alternately inflate and deflate series of cells. This action has the effect of changing the areas of skin that are weight (pressure) relieved with those that are under pressure from body weight. Pressure relief devices are widely accepted for the prevention of of pressure ulcers.
The global pressure relief devices market is estimated to be valued at US$ 3,689.1 million in 2022 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 6.9% during the forecast period (2022-2030).

Global Pressure Relief Devices Market- Regional Analysis
Among all regions North America is estimated to hold a dominant position in the pressure relief devices market over the forecast period. North America hold 38.4% market share due to increasing prevalence of pressure ulcers in that reagion. According to data published by the Open Nursing Journal, in Feburary 2021. The prevalence of pressure ulcers in U.S. was 38% in the systematic review of 2020
Moreover, according to the data published in National Center for Biotechnology Information, the prevalence of pressure ulcer in Africa was 18.6%
Global Pressure Relief Devices Market– Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic
Since the COVID-19 virus outbreak in December 2019, the disease has spread to over 100 countries across the globe, and the World Health Organization declared it a public health emergency on January 30, 2020.
COVID-19 can affect the economy in three main ways: by directly affecting the production and demand of drugs, by creating disruptions in distribution channels, and through its financial impact on firms and financial markets. Due to nationwide lockdowns, several countries such as China, India, Saudi Arabia, the U.A.E., Egypt, and others are facing problems with the transportation of drugs from one place to another.
However, the COVID-19 pandemic had a negative impact on the global pressure relief devices market. For instance, in August 2022, according to the data published in National Center for Biotechnology Information, an observational study was performed on Eighty-seven patients which were admitted to critical care, to examine the prevalence and risk of pressure ulcers in COVID-19 patients. Hence, it was stated that 55 patients had developed pressure ulcers due to prone positioning.

Global Pressure Relief Devices Market: Key Trends
Increasing prevalence of pressure ulcers in intensive care units is expected to drive the global pressure relief devices market over the forecast period.
Increasing prevalence of pressure ulcers in intensive care units is expected to drive the global pressure relief devices market over the forecast period. In February 2022, according to the data published in Dove Press Medical Journal, A study was conducted among 125 patients treated at the Department of Anesthesiology of the 4th Military Teaching Hospital in Wroclaw between 2019 and 2020 to check the prevalence of pressure ulcers in intensive care unit patients. Hence, it was estimated that the prevalence of pressure ulcer was 8.8%.
Global Pressure Relief Devices Market: Restraint
Increasing number of product recalls by regulatory authorities such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is expected to hinder the pressure relief devices market over the forecast period.
Increasing number of product recalls by regulatory authorities such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is expected to hinder the pressure relief devices market over the forecast period. For instance, in June 2022, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration recalled a class II device MRS surface with X-ray mattress, which was manufactured by Hill-Rom Holdings, Inc., a medical technology company. The device was recalled because the failure mode on the affected mattresses can cause a reduction in the performance of the microclimate management feature used to pull heat and moisture away from the patient resulting in an increased patient risk of pressure ulcer development.
