Report Scope of the Patient Scales Market:

The growth of the market can be attributed to the factors such as increasing demand for effective portable weighing devices, increasing development in healthcare infrastructure, and introduction of advanced healthcare technologies.

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the patient scale market growth. With the increasing cases of COVID-19 cases, hospitals, and healthcare facilities have experienced a high volume of patients. This led to an increased demand for patient scales, as healthcare providers need to accurately monitor patients’ weight to determine medication dosages and fluid balance. However, during the pandemic global supply chains were disrupted, leading to shortages of raw materials, and finished goods.

Furthermore, increasing cases of obesity globally have created a significant demand for patient-scale instruments. Healthcare providers now could keep the track of patients’ body mass index and weight by using a remote patient monitoring (RPM) weight scale. In November 2021, DrKumo announced the launch of DrKumo CyberHealth Intelligent Center Hub, which would revolutionize remote patient monitoring-Home Telehealth.

Companies are mainly focusing on the introduction of portable and compact products. Advanced technologies are been integrated to achieve proper and accurate precision. For instance, in November 2022, DETECTO offers portable high-capacity digital stretcher scales which could be used for the precision weighing of patients in emergency rooms. In addition, in October 2022.
