Growing Prevalence and Incidence of Repository Disease to Inflate the Disposable Oxygen Masks Market Size
Disposable
oxygen masks offer consumers higher comfort and a better fit than vented masks.
These products are available in different shapes and sizes to meet individual
customer specifications. Available with either soft or hard foam, disposable
oxygen masks have a contoured shape for a better fit and are designed
specifically for optimized patient comfort with a gentle anatomical structure.
Adjustable nose strips and elastic straps ensure a tight fit while discouraging
the patient from un-ratcheting the mask. The use of disposable oxygen masks
provides several significant advantages over traditional and vented breathing
devices
The
high prevalence and incidence rate of respiratory disease around the globe is
fueling the growth of the disposable
oxygen masks market. According to the World Health Organization, about
65 million people suffer from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and
3 million die from it each year, making it the third leading cause of death
worldwide. About 334 million people suffer from asthma, the most common chronic
disease of childhood affecting 14% of all children globally. Moreover, the rise
in incidences of stroke in adults coupled with the growing prevalence of
myocardial infarctions is again fostering the growth of the disposable oxygen
masks market. The rise in the hospitalization of people suffering from
respiratory diseases is further anticipated to augment the growth of the
disposable oxygen masks market.
North
America is projected to gain significant growth over the forecast period and
this is attributed to the high prevalence of stroke in the region. According to
the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, in 2018, 1 in every 6
deaths from cardiovascular disease was due to stroke. Someone in the United
States has a stroke every 40 seconds. Every 4 minutes, someone dies of a
stroke. Every year, more than 795,000 people in the United States have a
stroke.
Key Developments:
1. In March 2020, Ford has entered into partnership
with 3M and GE Healthcare to increase the production of personal protective
gear for health care workers and ventilators for people in acute respiratory
distress amid the coronavirus epidemic.
2. In April 2020, The Belgian Company Materialise has
launched a Materialise NIP Connector to cope with COVID-19. It converts
standard equipment available in most hospitals into a non-invasive PEEP mask
(NIP) that can be connected to an oxygen supply
3. In April 2020, Elstech has introduced and
commercialized Sterilizing and Deodorizing Mask Filter based on its solid
oxygen purifier (SOP) technology.
