Worsening hypertension, arrhythmias, stroke, and myocardial infarction are some of the complications that may arise due to worse cases of sleep apnea. Majority of cases remain untapped due to symptoms being acceptableandnotconceivedasadangeroussign,thesesymptomsaresnoringandday-timesleepingwhichiscommoninthecountry. India sleep apnea devices market is segmented by type, end user, regional distribution, and competitional landscape. Based on type, the market is further bifurcated into therapeutics and diagnostics. Diagnostic devices are the efficient for the early and efficient catching of the diseases. These devices include polysomnography devices, home sleep testing devices, sleep screening devices, oximeters, and others. Polysomnography is anticipated to lead the market segment in the forecast years on the backbone of increasing prevalence of the disease as well as its advantage of efficient diagnosis among all other devices. Therapeutics devices include positive airway pressure devices, facial interfaces, oral appliances, adaptive servo-ventilators, and others. Positive airway pressure devices are pumping medical devices that pressurizes the air into lungs which effectively prevents the airway collapse episodes. Surge in the demand of efficient, portable, and superior sleep apnea therapeutic/ treatment devices is enhancing the growth of the India sleep apnea devicesmarketinthe forecastyears. Holding major shares of the market, some of the top players in the market are, ResMed India Pvt. Ltd., Philips Healthcare India, Fisher & Paykel Healthcare India Private Ltd, Nihon Kohden India Pvt. Ltd., Invacare Corporation India, Omnisleep Solutions, Devilbiss Healthcare Private Limited, OventusMedical Ltd., Wipro GE Healthcare Pvt. Ltd., Teleflex Medical Private Limited, among others. Market players are highly invested in the research and development of the technologically advanced medical devices. Moreover, the surge in demand has driven the industry to provide for the devices that are cost-effective, feasible, easily movable etc. to achieve all the features, market players have come up with variant products that are in turn drivingthe marketgrowthinthefuturefiveyears. “With the urbanization 70% of the India’s population is now in touch with the urban population with ease. This has enhanced the chances of rural population adopting lifestyle changes like smoking, drinking, and other drawback of pollution causing diseases is increasing the patients suffering from sleep apnea and other breathing diseases. Moreover, rising disposable income among the population is anticipated to impact the growth of the market positively,” said Mr. Karan Chechi, Research Directorwith TechSci Research, a research based global managementconsultingfirm. © TechSci Research 14
