risk of SCA is bound to increase considerably over the forecast period thus fueling the demand for AEDs.
However, lack of awareness about sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) can hinder the growth of AEDs market
during the forecast period.
Fully automated AEDs are normally used outside hospital settings in public places and pre hospital
environments such as ambulances. These devices can be used with little or no training at public places or
at home to counter SCA situations. Semi-automated AEDs are generally used in hospitals as these require
some level of expertise to operate. With increasing installation of fully automated AEDs in public places,
especially in developed countries, the market will witness favorable growth during the forecast period.
U.S. held a considerable share of the North American AEDs market in 2016 owing to increasing
prevalence of chronic diseases and availability of robust healthcare infrastructure in the country. France
held a larger share of the European AEDs market in 2016 followed by Germany. Rising awareness related
to SCA and installations of defibrillators for public access are some of the factors responsible for the
growth of AEDs market in these countries.

Technological advancement is another factor driving the growth of this market. Therefore, the major
players operating in the global AEDs market emphasize on product development to expand their product

approval helped the company expand its product portfolio and market its AEDs in Canada. Such
advanced product launches will help these players to expand their product portfolio to sustain their
