Depending on product, the resting electrocardiograph (ECG) segment dominated the market in 2020, and this trend is expected to continue during the forecast period, owing to as these ECG devices are highly adopted for the basic cardiac monitoring of patients. Several market players are focused towards developing advanced ECG systems that can be ideal for the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases. However, the Holter monitors segment is expected to witness considerable growth during the forecast period, due to increasing demand for the detection of cardiac arrhythmias along with the diagnosis of patients suffering from cardiac arrhythmias. In addition, the utilization of Holter monitors has been extended into quantification of arrhythmias, evaluation of the antiarrhythmic therapy, and analyzing prognostic aspects of the arrhythmias.
By End User
The Hospitals & Clinics segment dominated the market in 2020, and this trend is expected to continue during the forecast period
On the basis of end user, the hospitals & clinics segment dominated the market in 2020, and this trend is expected to continue during the forecast period, owing to large-scale adoption of ECG systems by hospitals along with routine utilization of the ECG tests by the physicians. However, the home setting and ambulatory surgical centers (ASCs) segment is expected to witness considerable growth during the forecast period, due to increasing recommendation of ECG tests prior to and post surgeries in the ambulatory surgical centers.
By Lead Type
The 6 Lead ECG segment dominated the market in 2020, and this trend is expected to continue during the forecast period
On the basis of lead type, the 6 lead ECG segment dominated the market in 2020, and this trend is expected to continue during the forecast period, owing to increasing demand for 6 lead ECG in the diagnosis of cardiac disorders, which enable the doctor to have a clear view of the interior portion of the heart. However, the 12 lead ECG segment is expected to witness considerable growth during the forecast period, due to increasing utilization of 12-lead ECG systems as an experienced physician can view the interior of the heart from many different angles.
Region wise, North America electrocardiograph market garnered the major share in the ECG industry in 2020, and is expected to dominate the global ECG market during the forecast period, owing to high prevalence of cardiovascular diseases, increased healthcare expenditure, and large geriatric population base. However, Asia-Pacific is expected to register the highest CAGR of 10.2% from 2021 to 2030, owing to increasing penetration of the wearable ECG devices in the region. Moreover, Asia-Pacific is expected to grow at high CAGR in India ECG market size.

Analyst Review
Electrocardiograph (ECG) devices are essentially adopted across various medical settings such as hospitals, clinics, and ambulatory surgical centers. Several ECG devices such as resting ECG, stress ECG, and Holter monitors are used for monitoring abnormal heartbeat. In addition, these devices have gained immense traction in the recent years as continuous monitoring of the ECG signals over hours combined with activity status is important for preventing cardiovascular diseases. Moreover, the adoption of Holter monitor ECGs is growing at a fast pace, as these devices assist in identifying arrhythmias that take place during certain activities such as exercise, stress, bowel movements, sleep, eating, and stress. ECG devices comprise several lead types, including single lead, 3lead, 6 lead, and 12-lead all of which provide a view of the heart’s electrical activity.
