Description

This Frost & Sullivan annual outlook analyzes the medical devices industry across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa. The study provides insights into market size, growth rates, opportunities, strategic imperatives, and macroeconomic trends shaping the medical devices industry. The study period spans 2023–2031, with 2025 as the base year and 2026–2031 as the forecast period. Key segments analyzed include patient monitoring devices, cardiovascular devices, wound care, respiratory, neurology, robotics and navigation systems, clinical-grade wearables, diabetes, minimally invasive surgery, orthopedics, audiology, and ophthalmology.

Top predictions for 2026:
• Growth in ambulatory surgical center procedure volumes will continue to outpace hospital procedure volumes.
• Patient-centric home care will accelerate due to expanding adoption of remote monitoring, wearables, and connected devices.
• AI will become a built-in, default component of medical devices as payers and providers increasingly focus on outcomes.
• Minimally invasive procedures will expand with strong adoption of digital surgery technologies.
• Integrated care platforms will increasingly replace fragmented solutions.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
