Analyst Review
The utilization of medical carts is expected to rise proportionally with the rise in healthcare spending and hospital reforms in emerging countries of Asia-Pacific region. The medical carts market caught the interest of healthcare industry owing to its ease in medical workflow and lowering the medication error across various applications. Medical carts with new utilities such as UPS & battery charging systems, silent medical casters, and counting machine tray are some of the latest trolleys available in the market. Nevertheless, the growth in need of more organized trolleys for emergency purposes has raised the demand for newer versions of medical carts. Anesthesia medical carts, designed to meet the unique needs by the anesthesia department such as keyless locking option, configurable medication storage with multiple bin and drawer sizes drive the market growth. In addition, rise in emergency cases such as accidents, trauma, causalities, and other injuries has increased the demand for both emergency and anesthesia medical carts in the region.
The growing healthcare expenditure in India, China, and Japan, as well as rapid growth in aged population and increasing demand for quality healthcare have fueled the demand for medical carts. In addition, growing number of private & public hospitals, urbanization, sedentary lifestyle, and awareness on the importance of health management is anticipated to strengthen the medical carts market in Singapore, Indonesia, and South Korea. However, lack of skilled medical professionals, mounting hospital costs, and maintenance of medical carts could restrain the market growth.
