A high-frequency ultrasonic nebulizer is a device used to provide medication. This vibration at a high frequency transforms liquid medicine into a mist. Patients can inhale this mist with a mask or mouthpiece. The mouthpiece expiration valve of the ultrasonic nebulizer opens when the patient exhales, allowing the exhaled air to escape straight into the atmosphere and preventing the ultrasonic nebulizer from becoming contaminated. When the patient inhales, the mouthpiece's valve closes, optimizing the inhaling volume. Ultrasonic nebulizers are used to treat a variety of respiratory diseases and disorders, including asthma and cystic fibrosis. Additionally, ultrasonic nebulizers are employed when administering anesthesia to a patient. According to the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology, one in twelve Americans had asthma in 2008, and this figure continues to rise. According to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, 70,000 people live with cystic fibrosis globally, and this figure is increasing due to a variety of circumstances. This information illustrates the increasing demand for ultrasonic nebulizers, which will boost the market revenue for ultrasonic nebulizers. ultrasonic nebulizer is also expected to witness a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period of 2024 to 2032.
Market Drivers and Restraints
The most important reasons that are anticipated to drive the growth of the ultrasonic nebulizer market are the rise in the number of patients suffering from respiratory ailments as a result of lifestyle changes and the rise in pollution levels. Self-administration of the anesthetic drug, which is a feature of ultrasonic nebulizers and which saves the physician time and eliminates the need for superfluous instrumentation, is another aspect that could contribute to the growth of the ultrasonic nebulizer market. Other factors that can contribute to the expansion of the ultrasonic nebulizer market include the rise in disposable income, which encourages individuals to spend on such amenities, and the rise in advertising of the product's new features. The inability to employ ultrasonic nebulizers for all types of suspensions is the most significant factor that can restrain ultrasonic nebulizer market expansion. Also, ultrasonic nebulizers generate heat waves that can denature some thermally sensitive drugs, which can act as a restraint on the ultrasonic nebulizer market's growth.
End User Perspectives: Hospital and Clinic Segment Dominated the Market
In terms of revenue share, the hospital & clinic segment led the global nebulizer market in 2023. This category is dominant due to the increased penetration of hospitals and the availability of various types of nebulizers in hospitals and clinics. The majority of individuals prefer hospitals and clinics for seeking treatment for respiratory disorders. Increasing investments in equipping healthcare facilities with cutting-edge technologies and devices offer industry participants exciting growth prospects.
Home healthcare is anticipated to be the segment with the highest growth rate over the projection period. Nebulizers are now acceptable for use in a home healthcare setting as a result of the miniaturization made possible by technological improvements in medication delivery systems. The expansion of the home healthcare segment is primarily driven by the increasing prevalence of respiratory diseases, the aging population, and the need to reduce healthcare expenditures. In addition, the increasing popularity of online pharmacies, as well as their convenient availability and home delivery, are the primary drivers driving the expansion of this market segment.
North America Remains as the Global Leader
In 2023, North America dominated the global nebulizer market, with a market share of over 35%. In North America, the prevalence of respiratory disorders has increased. Changing lifestyles, increased smoking prevalence, rising tobacco consumption, and a growing elderly population. According to the American Lung Association, over 16.4 million individuals in the United States have been diagnosed with COPD, including emphysema, chronic bronchitis, and COPD. According to the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, around 25 million Americans suffered from asthma in 2018. These reasons have contributed to the expansion of the nebulizer market in North America. Increased healthcare spending in the United States has also contributed to market expansion. In 2018, the per capita healthcare spending in the United States was a substantial $10,624.
Alternatively, Asia-Pacific is projected to be the most lucrative market during the projection period. Asia-Pacific is experiencing rapid industrialization, rapid urbanization, increased smoking prevalence, a changing lifestyle, and a growing geriatric population are projected to boost the growth of the nebulizer market. By 2050, the World Health Organization predicts that around 80% of the global geriatric population would reside in low- and middle-income nations. The aging population spends more on healthcare and is therefore predicted to boost market expansion. WHO estimates that around 80% of COPD-related deaths occur in low- and middle-income countries. In Asia-Pacific, the demand for nebulizers is anticipated to increase significantly.
Innovation is the Key to Enhance Market Share
To establish its dominance in the industry and gain a competitive edge over others, the major market participants in the worldwide nebulizer market are continually implementing new product releases, collaborations, and partnerships, among other methods. These development methods are anticipated to generate new growth opportunities shortly and will stimulate the expansion of the global nebulizer market.
Allied Healthcare Products, Inc., Omron Healthcare Co., Covidien plc, GE Healthcare Ltd., and Philips Healthcare are some of the leading companies in the global nebulizer market.
