MEA Respiratory Devices Market

MEA Respiratory Devices Market Size (2023 to 2028)

The respiratory devices market size in Middle East Africa was worth USD 1.41 billion in 2023. It is further estimated to grow at a CAGR of 8.61% and will be worth USD 2.13 billion by 2028.

Respiratory devices aid patients suffering from respiratory problems which cannot attain sufficient oxygen levels to sustain life. The devices are used in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a deteriorating lung disease that mainly includes chronic bronchitis and emphysema.

The growth of the MEA respiratory devices market is primarily driven by the rising prevalence of respiratory diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD), asthma, chronic bronchitis, pulmonary hypertension, pneumonia, and other respiratory diseases. These diseases are increasing due to constant environmental changes, tobacco, recurrent lower respiratory infections during childhood, air pollution, occupational chemicals, and dust driving the growth of the Middle East & African respiratory devices market. Also, technological advancements in respiratory devices for developing innovative and advanced devices are fuelling market growth.  In addition, the increasing awareness among the people about various respiratory diseases with the increasing disposable income is propelling the growth of the MEA respiratory devices market. 

On the other hand, the increase in investments from government and non-government in research and development activities for manufacturing new and advanced diagnosing devices and the rising incidences of preterm births in the region are uplifting the market growth. Furthermore, increasing urbanization, growing population, and healthcare expenditure contribute to the MEA respiratory devices market.

However, increase in the cost of the devices and treatment are majorly hampering the growth of the Middle East & African respiratory devices market. Also, strict government rules and regulations for introducing products in the market inhibit the market growth. In addition, lack of proper access to medical and health care devices for treatment procedures. Also, a lack of awareness among people about the risks associated with respiratory diseases is affecting the growth of the MEA respiratory devices market.
