By usage modality, the wireless ECG sensor patch segment accounted for the largest market share in 2024.
In 2024, the wireless ECG sensor patch segment dominated usage modalities, primarily due to the rising deployment of Long Term Evolution Machine (LTE-M) and Narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) based patch devices. These devices provide seamless data transmission without needing smartphones or external hubs. Due to their minimal interference and high patient compliance, they are also being prioritized in clinical trials for continuous cardiac rhythm monitoring in oncology patients receiving cardiotoxic chemotherapy. Additionally, FDA-cleared wireless models featuring automated, cloud-based ECG interpretation have improved remote patient monitoring in outpatient settings.
By end users, the home care settings segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
By end user, the market is segmented into hospitals & clinics, ambulatory care centers, home care settings, urgent care centers, primary centers, and other end users. The home care settings segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The rising approval of prescription-grade ECG patches for at-home cardiac rehabilitation monitoring and specific reimbursement expansions under remote therapeutic monitoring (RTM) codes are expected to fuel the market growth of this segment. Also, compact adhesive patch kits with pre-configured instructions explicitly tailored for older adults have drastically improved self-application rates, reducing the need for clinical intervention.
By region, North America is expected to witness the highest growth rate during the forecast period.
The key factors driving the market growth of North America include the unique convergence of payer-backed chronic care management programs and regulatory fast-tracking of Class II wearable cardiac devices. Specific CMS policies incentivizing 30-day remote ECG monitoring post-atrial fibrillation ablation have created a solid reimbursement ecosystem, particularly in the US. Collaborations between leading patch manufacturers and integrated delivery networks (IDNs) in Canada are expected to fuel the adoption of telecardiology. The adoption of this technology is further supported by Medicare plans that provide coverage for patch-based screening of silent atrial fibrillation (AF) in asymptomatic diabetic patients, promoting early intervention. These region-specific policies and healthcare infrastructure improvements significantly contribute to market expansion.
