Thus, technological advances in heart rate monitoring devices and their integration with other compatible technologies will have a positive impact on the growth of the global market during the forecast period.

Major Market Challenge

The high cost of stress-testing devices is a major challenge impeding market growth. Cardiopulmonary stress testing is performed in hospitals, clinics, and diagnostic laboratories to diagnose and assess patients with CVDs. The systems used for cardiopulmonary stress testing are expensive, owing to which medium and small hospitals and clinics find it difficult to purchase such products. The high cost of these systems also restricts their use in home care settings and small clinical laboratories. It may impact the cost of the overall diagnosis procedure. The cost of the systems used for stress testing varies depending on the type of product used for the diagnosis.

Furthermore, stress tests coupled with echocardiography or nuclear imaging are more expensive, which increases the out-of-pocket expenses of patients. Moreover, the radiation exposure from the radionuclide imaging used during the nuclear stress test (myocardial perfusion scan) carries more risks, which may limit the acceptance of this test among patients. These factors are expected to hamper the growth of the global market during the forecast period.
