The global tele-icu market size is expected to reach USD 6.1 billion by 2026, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc., expanding at a CAGR of 16.7% over the forecast period. Increase in demand for remote patient monitoring with ever-rising old age population, coupled with technological innovations, is the prime factor responsible for the tele intensive care unit market growth.

Moreover, the world report on aging published in 2015 stated that 17.0% of the global population would be above 65 by 2050. In U.S., the population aged 65 or above is expected to reach 88 million by 2050. Old age people are more prone to health-related issues, so hospitalization rate is high in this age group, which may lead to surgeries and use of ICU units.

Tele incentive care unit increases efficiency in healthcare delivery, streamlines clinical decision time, and enables real-time access for the patient’s health records. This, in turn, boosts demand for the tele intensive care unit enabled services. In addition, the advantage of implementing tele intensive care unit is the reduction in hospital stays and decrease in the overall costs incurred by the patients. However, major obstacles in the market growth are low adoption of technology and high implementation costs of the system.
