The pulse oximeters market was valued at US$ 1,892.00 million in 2019 and is projected to reach US$ 3,693.92 million by 2027; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.6% during 2020-2027.

The growth of the market is attributed to increasing prevalence of respiratory diseases and growing preference for remote patient monitoring. However, the inaccuracies in pulse oximeter readings due to several factors hinders the growth of the market.

Pulse oximeter is a non-invasive device used to monitor oxygen saturation level in blood. It is a small, clip-like device that is attached to finger or earlobe. It is mostly used in intensive care, operating, emergency care, and patient at high altitude for assessment of patient's oxygenation to determine if there is need for supplemental oxygen. Further, pulse oximeters are useful for patients with cardiac problem, respiratory problems, and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases. Companies operating in the pulse oximeters market are receiving FDA approvals for their innovative products and raising funds for product development, which, in turn, propels the growth of the market.
