Straits Research released its highly anticipated report, “Global Cardiology PoC Diagnostics Market Size & Outlook, 2026-2034”. According to the study, the market size is valued at USD 2.05 billion in 2025 and is anticipated to grow to USD 3.36 billion by 2034, growing at a CAGR of 5.68% from 2026-2034.
The global cardiology point-of-care (PoC) diagnostics market is driven by the growing burden of cardiovascular diseases, the ageing population, and increasing demand for rapid, accurate, and bedside diagnostic solutions. Advancements in high-sensitivity cardiac biomarker assays, including troponin and BNP, along with the integration of portable and connected PoC platforms, are enhancing clinical decision-making and enabling faster treatment initiation. However, the market faces restraints such as stringent regulatory approvals, variability in reimbursement structures, and limited accessibility in resource-constrained healthcare settings due to a shortage of trained personnel. Despite these challenges, emerging markets and the expansion of decentralized and home-based care models present lucrative opportunities, as innovations in AI-enabled PoC devices and cloud-integrated data management are transforming cardiac diagnostics toward more patient-centric and cost-effective care delivery.
August 2025: Analytics for Life and CorVista Health announced positive results from a clinical study evaluating a non-invasive point-of-care (POC) diagnostic test for detecting elevated pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP), a key marker in heart failure management. The novel device, used machine learning to analyze patient signals in under four minutes, achieved its primary sensitivity endpoint for identifying PCWP levels associated with both HFpEF and HFrEF. This advancement represented a major step toward replacing invasive catheterisation procedures, strengthening the role of cardiac biomarkers and hospital-based POC diagnostics in advanced heart failure assessment.
