Current Business Affairs Global Healthcare Robotics Market 2018
Global Healthcare Robotics Market Trends, Analysis, and Forecast To
2025
The global healthcare market size was estimated USD 3.76 Billion in 2014 and is expected to witness significant growth
over the forecast period. Healthcare robots are used in wide range of applications which include drug manufacturing,
dispensing drugs to patients and moving inventory in medical supply facilities.
Increasing demand of the surgical robots such as da Vinci surgical systems is expected to intensify the market growth
over the forecast period. These robots offers 3D HD vision systems for a magnified and clear view of patients body and
assist doctors in various complex procedures with high precision and flexibility.
The healthcare centers are investing heavily on the robotics industry for minimizing the cost which include high cost
manual label of operation and for greater flexibility of functioning of the healthcare. Majorly the healthcare centers are
investing in automatic guided vehicles (AGVs) for transporting patient needs such as delivering meals, linens, nursing
supplies, packages, sterile items, oxygen and gases, and pick-up trash.

Increasing government subsidies for installing and implementing the healthcare robots in the countries such as China
and India has further led to enhance the market growth. Another factor enhancing the industry growth is the workforce
shortage in the sector. According to World Health Organization (WHO) report, 83 countries fall below the threshold of
22.8 skilled healthcare professionals per 10,000 population and 100 countries fall below the threshold of 34.5 skilled
healthcare professionals per 10,000 population.
The market is segregated into two major segments which include rehabilitation robots and robotics surgery market. The
rehabilitation robotics consists of prosthetic robotics, exoskeleton robotic system, orthotic robotics, and therapeutic
robotics. The robotics surgery market is further segregated based on the components and services which include robotic
surgical systems, instruments and accessories, and services.
The robotic surgery holds the major share in the market owing to wide scale improvements in patient monitoring, and
the ability to deliver better medical results with high accuracy and precision while implantation and component
replacement in orthopedics is expected to enhance the market growth over the forecast period. The application of the
robotics surgery includes gynecology, urology, and general surgery.
