Description

The North American positive airway pressure (PAP) devices market is projected to grow significantly, reaching approximately USD 4.3 billion by 2031, up from USD 2.5 billion in 2023, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.1% during the forecast period.

Executive Summary and Market Analysis

Several factors are driving the growth of the PAP devices market in North America. These include the increasing availability of favorable medical insurance plans that cover PAP therapy, government initiatives aimed at supporting healthcare providers, and a rising prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Additionally, advancements in technology related to PAP devices are contributing positively to market expansion across the region.

Market Segmentation Analysis

The North American PAP devices market can be segmented based on product type, application, and end user.

Product Type: The market is divided into automatic positive airway pressure (APAP) devices, continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) devices, and bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP) devices. In 2023, CPAP devices held the largest market share.
Application: The market is categorized into chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), obstructive sleep apnea, and respiratory distress, with obstructive sleep apnea being the leading application segment in 2023.
End User: The end-user segments include hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, home care, and rehabilitation centers, with hospitals accounting for the largest share in 2023.

Market Outlook

In recent years, the pharmaceutical industry has seen a significant shift towards outsourcing services, influenced by various factors. Patients increasingly prefer receiving treatment in the comfort of their homes rather than in clinical settings. PAP devices are particularly effective in home care environments for managing sleep apnea and other respiratory conditions, alleviating pressure on healthcare facilities and encouraging regular use. Given that conditions like sleep apnea often require long-term treatment, PAP devices that offer at-home solutions are seen as cost-effective options.

The trend towards home healthcare is a key driver for the sales of PAP devices designed for home use. Manufacturers are focusing on creating user-friendly, portable, and efficient devices to cater to this growing market. For instance, ResMed has developed the AirMini Portable CPAP, which is tailored for home care. This innovation not only enhances market dynamics but also improves access to respiratory care in both developed and developing regions. As healthcare systems increasingly emphasize home-based treatment, this trend is expected to persist.

Country Insights

The North American PAP devices market includes the United States, Canada, and Mexico, with the US holding the largest market share in 2023. The US is recognized as the largest PAP devices market globally and is expected to maintain its dominance throughout the forecast period. The growth of the PAP devices market in the US is fueled by advanced healthcare infrastructure, a rising incidence of sleep apnea, and the introduction of innovative products by leading market players.

Key players, such as ResMed, are launching a variety of devices for sleep apnea treatment, including the AirMini, AirSense 10 CPAP, and AirSense 10 Elite. The company is also involved in sponsoring research studies focused on sleep apnea treatment. Furthermore, the US market is anticipated to grow due to the increasing approval of technologically advanced products. For example, in April 2024, researchers at the University of Cincinnati introduced VortexPAP, a new technology that utilizes a unique airflow mechanism and offers various fitting options for users.
