The increasing prevalence of sleep apnea, the growing emphasis on preventive healthcare, and the rapidly advancing healthcare infrastructure in emerging economies. The rising supportive initiatives by government and private organizations for Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) devices is a notable trend expected to fuel market growth.
Furthermore, the rise in preference for home-based healthcare solutions and remote monitoring capabilities are boosting market growth. As healthcare systems shift care delivery from hospitals to patients' homes, there is a growing interest in leveraging sleep apnea devices for home-based noninvasive ventilation therapy. CPAP devices offer a cost-effective and convenient alternative to traditional hospital-based care, allowing patients to receive respiratory support in their homes. Home care settings allow patients to use CPAP devices in a familiar environment, which enhances comfort and adherence to therapy. This is particularly significant for individuals requiring long-term management of sleep apnea, as they can integrate the device into their daily routines without the stress of hospital visits.
Government Health Departments and non-profit organizations often run public awareness campaigns to educate people about sleep apnea and the importance of seeking treatment. For instance, in the U.S., the CDC has included sleep apnea in its broader public health messaging about sleep hygiene and chronic disease management. Similarly, in the UK, the National Health Service (NHS) promotes sleep health awareness and encourages people to seek diagnostic testing for sleep apnea. In addition, World Sleep Day, organized by the World Sleep Society, is an annual global event aimed at raising awareness of sleep disorders, including sleep apnea. The event garners significant media attention and support from healthcare organizations, further driving the use of CPAP therapy.
The connected CPAP devices segment held the largest revenue share of over 68.00% in 2024 and is anticipated to grow at the fastest growth rate over the forecast year.
