High Frequency Chest-Wall Oscillation Devices Market: Growth Drivers

Favorable insurance coverage is likely to boost the growth of the global market.

Favorable government policies and insurance coverages by big companies help people get complete treatment for a large number of respiratory diseases. Thereby, fostering growth in the global high-frequency chest-wall oscillation devices market. Also, the market for high-frequency chest-wall oscillation devices (HFCWO) is growing at a fast pace due to the constantly increasing number of patients suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. According to the British Lung Foundation, around 1.2 million people are suffering from COPD in the UK. In the US, approximately 9.3 million cases are registered for chronic bronchitis, as per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. These devices utilize the principles of positive and negative pressure to enhance the peripheral and tracheal mucus movements toward the airway opening. The oscillatory chest walls of the devices boost up the pressure owing to the high-frequency surpluses to the vest while it flattens when required causing an expiratory flow. Furthermore, the developments in the healthcare sector all across the globe, along with the increase in the per capita income of the people, are anticipated to propel the growth of the market exponentially in the forthcoming years. Increasing fast product approvals are another significant reason for the growth of the market.

High Frequency Chest-Wall Oscillation Devices Market: Restraints

High cost of the product is expected to restrict the growth of the global market.

The product is highly expensive, and therefore, people prefer drugs instead of HFCWO. However, it is expected to hamper the growth of the global high-frequency chest-wall oscillation devices industry in the forthcoming years.

High Frequency Chest-Wall Oscillation Devices Market: Opportunities

New product launches are likely to open lucrative growth opportunities in the global market.

Companies are boosting their research activities in order to come up with some advanced products. Also, companies have launched unique products offering more ease and comfort. Nowadays, companies are coming up with advanced charging sources for devices. Also, a few of the latest devices require less maintenance and a short period of time to charge.

High Frequency Chest-Wall Oscillation Devices Market: Challenges

Limited educational campaigns and a lack of knowledge are big challenges in the global market.

The government is making several initiatives to increase awareness among people regarding the early diagnosis and treatments of a wide variety of respiratory diseases like bronchiectasis, cystic fibrosis, COPD, etc. But the limited number of educational campaigns are not able to foster awareness among people, thereby emerging as a big challenge in the global high-frequency chest-wall oscillation devices market. Also, the lack of skilled professionals to understand and address the growing side effects of given respiratory diseases is further likely to hamper the growth of the global market.

High Frequency Chest-Wall Oscillation Devices Market: Segmentation

The global high-frequency chest-wall oscillation devices market can be segmented into product, indication, distribution channel, and region.

By product, the market can be segmented into vest type, respirtech, afflovest, and smartest. The vest-type segment holds the largest share of the global market. The vest type utilizes vibrations to loosen phlegm and mucus from the lungs. There are a variety of vest devices, like manual and automatic vests. It is majorly used for patients suffering from obstructive pulmonary disease.

By distribution channel, the market can be segmented into clinics, hospitals, home settings, and others. The home setting segment accounts for the largest share of the global high-frequency chest-wall oscillation devices industry. It helps patients recover fast and offer high independence.
