A blood pressure cuff (BP Cuff) is used to take blood pressure. The cuff has an inflatable rubber bladder that is fastened around the arm. A pressure meter indicates the cuff's pressure. A small, handheld air pump inflates the blood pressure cuff. After the cuff has been inflated an air valve is used to slowly release air pressure. There are mercury, aneroid (a mechanical dial) and digital blood pressure cuffs. Digital cuffs are automated while mercury and aneroid cuffs are used manually with a stethoscope. Physicians and clinicians most commonly use BP cuffs, as a walk-in percentage of patients is greater in stand-alone clinics as compared to surgical hospitals. BP measurement is majorly used for diagnosis and follow up of hypertension.

Market Scope and structural analysis:

Covid-19 Scenario analysis:

There has been an increase in the demand for medical supplies to take care of infected population. Respiratory support devices such as atomizers, life-support machines, oxygen generators, and monitors are among the majorly used medical devices in primary clinical treatment. Moreover, COVID-19 has led to a huge surge in demand for medical supplies such as personal protective equipment including masks, gloves, and protective eyeglasses. There is an increase in the need for medical supplies, both from healthcare professionals and civil population for precautionary measures, owing to the rise in number of COVID-19 cases worldwide. Manufacturers of these products have a chance to capitalize this increased demand for medical supplies to ensure adequate and continuous supply of personal protective equipment in the market. Therefore, COVID 19 is expected to have a significant impact on the blood pressure cuffs market..

Top impacting factors: Market Scenario Analysis, Trends, Drivers and Impact Analysis

Market Analysis:

Surge in   prevalence of hypertension globally is the major factor affecting the market growth. According to the World Health Organization in 2020, an estimated 1.13 billion people were estimated to have hypertension worldwide. In addition, fewer than 1 in 5 people with hypertension have the problem under control. This statistics is anticipated to help create awareness amongst civil population and propel the growth of the market in the coming years. Furthermore, increasing demand for the blood pressure monitoring devices is boosting the market growth. However, the threat of infection for reusable blood pressure cuffs is the factor that hinders the market growth.

Drivers:

Increase in number of patients having hypertension:

The demand for blood pressure (BP) cuff is very high because of growing consumer base and risk of high BP due to rising obese population & sedentary lifestyle. The demand for BP monitors is very high because of growing consumer base and risk of high BP due to rising obese population & sedentary lifestyle. This has led to an upsurge in the usage rates of BP cuffs over the forecast period. According to the statistics published by WHO, BP was a leading cause of 7.5 million deaths in 2008 and was anticipated to be a major risk factor for haemorrhagic stroke and coronary heart diseases in this decade. All these facts are expected to propel industry growth in the near future.

Growth in need of disposable cuff market:

Although blood pressure cuffs are commonly used and shared in medical facilities, their routine disinfection is performed infrequently despite this there have been a few studies of blood pressure cuff contamination by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) spreading disease from one patient to another thus causing a need for reusable cuffs. Thus reusable blood pressure cuffs market share is expected to dominate the global market. However, there will be decline with the growing adoption of disposable cuffs over the next couple of years. Experts predict that by the end of the forecast period, disposable cuffs will account for the largest blood pressure cuffs market share. Disposable cuffs will also register the highest blood pressure cuffs market growth.

Restrains:

Technological advancement:

New modifications of blood pressure monitoring devices such as in the form of wrist watch, wireless, BPM Core, and others are expensive and require maintenance compared to conventional blood pressure monitoring devices used in the clinics. These factors are expected to restrain the global blood pressure cuffs market growth over the forecast period.

Error in digital blood pressure cuff:

The digital blood pressure cuffs available in the market can be used by patients directly for their personal use, for measurement of blood pressure but the improper size and positioning of the cuffs on the arm, may result in error in recording the blood pressure and may lead to improper diagnosis of the condition resulting is need of alternative.
