Market Challenges And Opportunities

Global Single Use Disposable Patient Positioning Products Market - Restraints

Challenges in the global single use disposable patient positioning products market include the increasing use of reusable gel patient positioning products which are an alternative to disposable patient positioning products. This is a major factor that is expected to hinder growth of the market over the forecast period. Reusable gel patient positioners provide the same protection as foam patient positioners. Furthermore, reusable products reduce reoccurring costs for hospitals, and with correct cleaning, reusable products can negate any risk of contamination. For instance, Cardinal Health offers various reusable gel patient positioning products under the brand Oasis silicone gel positioners. These non-slip gel positioners are latex-free and can be heated or cooled without adverse effects (10° F to 120° F). There is also a lightweight option for gel positioning.
