Market Challenges

Pulse oximetry, a non-invasive method used to measure oxygen saturation levels in the blood, has become a standard tool in healthcare settings. However, it’s important to acknowledge the limitations and potential inaccuracies associated with this technology. Factors such as abnormal hemoglobin, anemia, reduced peripheral circulation, venous congestion, bright ambient light, and nail varnish can impact the accuracy of pulse oximeter readings. Additionally, some lower-priced pulse oximeters in the market have been found to provide inaccurate saturation readings during hypoxia and do not meet clinical standards. Conventional pulse oximetry technology also faces challenges, including difficulty in measuring oxygen saturation in the presence of motion artifacts or low perfusion, and failure to provide accurate measurements in the operating room. These limitations and potential inaccuracies may deter end-users from adopting pulse oximetry, negatively impacting the growth of the global pulse oximetry market.The Pulse Oximetry market faces several challenges in various sectors. In healthcare, ensuring patient safety during anesthesia, critical care, childbirth, and surgery is paramount. Pulse oximetry plays a crucial role in monitoring oxygen saturation levels. Technological advancements have led to the development of wrist, fingertip, and handheld pulse oximeters for proactive monitoring in home care and remote settings. The coronavirus pandemic has increased demand for these devices among home consumers and clinicians. In infants and neonates, accuracy is vital for newborn screening and pneumonia diagnosis. For pilots, athletes, and mountaineers, pulse oximeters ensure optimal performance. Challenges include ensuring accuracy, memory, data transfer via Bluetooth, and use in hospitals and ambulatory surgical centers.
