Neonatal Infant Care Equipment is used in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), Paediatric intensive care units (PICUs), and other types of care for Newborns.

 

Neonatal Infant Care Equipment 

Due to medical issues such as low birth weight and early birth, neonates and newly born newborns require particular help and/or monitoring. These newborns are put in a separate ward and provided care known as neonatal care in order to guarantee good care and healthy growth.

The global Neonatal Infant Care Equipment market is estimated to account for US$ 3,330.5 Mn in terms of value by the end of 2027.

Drivers of the Global Neonatal Infant Care Equipment Market

Over the projected period, the worldwide newborn baby care equipment market is predicted to develop due to rising preterm birth rates and associated initiatives to improve their survival rates. According to the March of Dimes 2019 report card, the United States' preterm birth rate increased to 10.02 percent in 2018 from 9.63 percent in 2015.

The market is also predicted to rise as the population grows. According to Population Reference Bureau (PRB) forecasts provided in the 2018 World Population Data Sheet, the global population is predicted to reach 9.9 billion by 2050, up 2.3 billion or 29% from an estimated 7.6 billion in 2018.

In terms of value, North America dominated the worldwide newborn baby care equipment market in 2019, accounting for 37.8% of the total, followed by Europe.

Some of the Devices commonly used in Neonatal Infant Care Equipment-

Apnea Monitor- An equipment that monitors when your baby stops breathing for a few seconds is known as an apnea monitor. When your baby stops breathing, an alarm sounds to alert NICU staff.

Arterial line- A tiny tube that goes into your baby's artery to check his blood pressure and analyse blood gases is known as an arterial line. A blood channel that distributes oxygen to all regions of your baby's body is known as an artery. Blood pressure is the amount of force that blood exerts on the artery walls. The acid, oxygen, and carbon dioxide in your baby's blood are known as blood gases.

Cardiopulmonary monitor -An equipment that monitors your baby's heart and breathing rates is known as a cardiopulmonary monitor. Small adhesive pads called leads link it to your baby's chest. The monitor's data is shown on a screen and can be printed. An alert sounds if your baby's heart or respiratory rate gets too rapid or too sluggish.

Central line - A little plastic tube that is inserted into a major blood artery is known as a central line. The tube delivers medicine and fluids to your baby, and it can also be used to collect blood. A peripherally implanted central catheter is one type of central line that is often utilised (also called a PICC line).

Market Trends

Hypothermia is prevalent in newborns born in hospitals, which means that neonatal baby care equipment will be in high demand. According to a research published in August 2018 titled "Neonatal hypothermia and related variables among newborns hospitalised to neonatal intensive care units of public hospitals in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia," the incidence of neonatal hypothermia in the study region was 64 percent.

Phototherapy Equipment segment in the global Neonatal Infant Care Equipment market was valued at US$ 502.4 Mn in 2019 and is expected to reach US$ 946.0 Mn by 2027 at a CAGR of 8.2% during the forecast period.  The prevalence of neonatal jaundice is high worldwide. For instance, according to the study, ‘The prevalence of neonatal jaundice and risk factors in healthy term neonates at National District Hospital in Bloemfontein’, published in April 2018, in the African Journal of Primary Health Care & Family Medicine, the prevalence of neonatal jaundice was 55.2% in the study population.
