Sales Analysis of the Global Market from 2014 to 2022 Vs Market Outlook for 2023 to 2033

The global market for neonatal infant care recorded a historic CAGR of 6.8% in the last 8 years from 2014 to 2022.

Premature babies are more prone to complications like hypothermia because of heat loss, lower fat and glycogen stores, and other factors. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that every year, 15 million babies are delivered prematurely, of whom 1 million die each year as a consequence of the increasing preterm problems. The introduction of advanced neonatal infant care technology has remained crucial to managing neonatal health issues. To address the global demand for neonatal infant care, the manufacturers are heavily investing. The demand for neonatal care has increased globally due to technological advances and growing public awareness of pregnancy problems and maternal-foetal health.

The incidence of preterm births and the rising prevalence of hypothermia pose serious health risks and complicate the lives of new-borns. Infections, chronic diseases like high blood pressure and diabetes, and numerous pregnancies are some of the common causes of preterm birth. Additionally, there may be a hereditary connection. The development of treatments to prevent preterm birth will advance with a greater understanding of the mechanisms and causes. The demand for new-born infant care that anticipates to treat the complications associated with preterm births has therefore increased due to the rising number of preterm births and growing concern for their survival.

  • For instance, the Oxford Academic Journal study found that between August 2020 and March 2021, out of 1520 enrolled neonates, between 74% and 77% of the neonates had hypothermia after birth.

Rising awareness of neonatal health due to increased emphasis on technological advancement. For instance, companies who manufacture phototherapy devices with a user-friendly control panel and a blue spectrum radiation source, like the MTTS Firefly, are predicted to benefit from the rapid improvements in technology. Companies are concentrating more on creating LED (Light Emitting Diode) radiation sources due to their low power consumption and superior control over radiation intensity. One of the key factors anticipated to fuel the growth of the global market for neonatal infant care is rising investments made by regional governments as well as key manufacturers in a number of developing nations.

The global market is thus likely to show high growth over the coming years at a CAGR of 5.6% and reach a global market size of US$ 4.1 Bn by 2033.

What Factors Will Drive the Market to Grow Over Forecast Period?

Rising Awareness Levels about Neonatal Care Equipment”

Various neonatal monitoring, support, and therapeutic care devices are currently affordably accessible. However, the rate at which this equipment has been adopted in low- to middle-income nations has been modest. Several African countries, including Niger, Mali, Chad, and Uganda, have extraordinarily high birth rates when compared to the global average. In any case, despite having high rates of preterm births along with many Asian countries, these countries have not been using modern baby care equipment to a great extent. Future growth of this market would be greatly influenced by increasing awareness of various neonatal infant care devices in these regions.

Companies focusing on improving their distribution network through strategic alliances”

The market for neonatal care equipment is witnessing a collaborative approach between companies and children's hospitals, which is anticipated to strengthen each company's regional distribution network and help hospitals access better technology. For instance, to expand their distribution networks in developing areas, multinational companies like GE Healthcare have entered into strategic relationships with hospitals to supply their neonatal care products.

Increase in Premature Birth and Growing Focus on Maternal Health

The market for neonatal infant care is coping with an increase in demand for thermoregulation devices from developing nations like Egypt and India. To meet the demands of the maternal population, companies with operations or distribution networks in these economies are now concentrating on creating advanced and reasonably priced neonatal solutions.

  • Rising rates of preterm births, healthcare initiatives by respective governments, such as India Newborn Action Plan (INAP) in India and West African Health Organization (WAHO) that prioritize maternal and child health, are the leading reasons of the rise in demand for thermoregulation devices like radiant warmers and neonatal incubators.

Is there Any Impact on the Growth of the Global Market?

Low Birth Rates in Some Developed Economies”

Extremely low birth rates can be found in countries such as Japan, Singapore, Germany, Italy, and Singapore. In 2010, the birth rate was as low as eight in Germany and nine in Singapore, according to World Bank statistics. It is anticipated that the exceptionally low birth rates in several developed economies, such as the U.K. (13), France (13), and Spain (11), will lead to a low adoption of neonatal care devices in these countries. It is expected that the market growth in these countries will be slowed by the low uptake or declining demand for such products in the majority of developed economies.

“Lack of Product Differentiation”

In many low- to middle-income countries, adoption of neonatal care equipment is incredibly low. Despite low birth rates, developed economies account for the majority of revenue in this market when compared to African or Asian countries. This is partly because there have been few or no new developments in the neonatal care equipment that is now on the market. Due to the exceptionally low rate of product differentiation, emerging economies have very little demand for such technologies. This is anticipated to limit the market's future overall growth.
