Global Tonometry Device Market- Drivers
Arterial blood pressure is used for the assessment of cardiac function. The measurement of the systolic and diastolic blood pressure on the brachial artery is used for the diagnosis and management of hypertension. However, for the assessment of central aortic blood pressure, aortic and carotid pressures that can be measured by tonometry are physiologically more relevant and superior to peripheral brachial pressure. Central aortic blood pressure (CBP) is considered a better cardiovascular prognostic marker than conventional cuff brachial blood pressure. Therefore, the rising prevalence of cardiovascular devices is expected to increase the demand for devices that can efficiently detect the risk of cardiovascular diseases at an early stage to avoid serious complications. For instance, according to the data provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in July 2022, heart disease is the leading cause of death for women, men, and people of most racial and ethnic groups in the U.S. Moreover, according to the same source, one person dies every 34 seconds in the U.S. from cardiovascular disease. In the year 2020, about 697,000 people died from heart disease in the U.S. that is 1 in every 5 deaths.
Blood pressure monitoring is a vital part of care for patients admitted to the Intensive Care Units (ICUs). The most commonly used procedures for blood pressure (BP) monitoring involve either non-invasive inflatable cuff-based oscillometric or invasive arterial line manometric measurement. However, inflatable BP cuffs take intermittent measurements that are typically limited in frequency to no more than one measurement every 5 min due to patient discomfort and the risk of skin and nerve damage. Tonometry is a noninvasive and reproducible method that can detect aortic and carotid pressures. Tonometry can overcome the shortcomings of inflatable cuff-based blood pressure monitoring devices. Tonometry monitoring devices have certain advantages over such devices, which is expected to drive the market growth over the forecast period. For instance, arterial applanation tonometry allows for monitoring the blood pressure waveform, overcoming the limitation of the inflatable cuff method that can only measure discrete value of systolic and diastolic blood pressure.
