Surge in geriatric population, rapid population growth, and rise in accidents have led to an increase in need for emergency medical services worldwide.
Governments of several countries across the world are making significant investments in the healthcare sector to provide patients with better access and quality of services. This is creating immense stretcher chairs market opportunities for market players.
Emergency evacuation chairs are essential components of an efficient emergency response system, as they enable patients to get access to timely medical assistance. In China, the total number of hospital or clinic visits stood at nearly 8.42 billion in 2022.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about 2.8 million people are admitted to critical care units in the U.S. every year. An estimated 41.8% of emergency patients receive medical assistance in less than 15 minutes.
Patient comfort plays a vital role in robust recovery and wellness. Increase in focus on comfort and safety of patients during the treatment phase makes them more cooperative, thus indicating better physiological response and decrease in anxiety level.
Advancements in patient comfort technology include consistent innovations in ambulance and stretcher chairs with features such as customizable support, temperature control options, and memory foam padding.
Focus on ergonomics and minimal design to improve caregiver convenience and practicality is also gaining traction, thus propelling the stretcher chairs market revenue.
Manual chair is the dominant type of stretcher chair that is available in the market, as several patients may not afford powered chairs. Powered chairs are beneficial to patients suffering from musculoskeletal conditions.
According to the World Health Organization, 1.71 billion people have musculoskeletal conditions globally. Lower back pain is the most prevalent burden for musculoskeletal patients, with over 568 million people diagnosed across the world. This rise in incidence of musculoskeletal conditions is driving market expansion.
