 The global ventilators market size was valued at USD 1205.06 million in 2023 and is projected to reach a value of USD 1691.72 million by 2031, registering a CAGR of 7.5% during the forecast period 2023-2031.

The ventilator is a piece of medical technology used in intensive care units to assist patients unable to breathe independently. Ventilators are used in hospitals, rehab facilities, and at home. They can be used on the system temporarily or permanently (as in long-term care). A ventilator consists of an endotracheal tube, a nasogastric drain, and mechanical ventilation. By giving oxygen to the patient, ventilation devices eliminate carbon dioxide from their bodies. Although it is intended to maintain life, it is not utilized to treat illnesses or other medical conditions. Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, brain injuries, and strokes need mechanical ventilation. A ventilator is life-supporting healthcare equipment that controls the patient's breathing during treatment. They are used in chronic lung failure or other disorders that result in inadequate respiratory system operation.

The increasing prevalence of chronic respiratory disorders among the world's population due to rising pollution levels is the main factor driving the worldwide market. The World Health Organization lists chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, occupational lung disease, and pulmonary hypertension as the most prevalent chronic respiratory diseases. Globally, 253 million individuals struggle with asthma. Over 5 million patients are admitted to ICUs in the U.S. each year, according to the Society of Critical Care Medicine. Mechanical breathing is necessary for 40% and 50% of these ICU admissions. As a result, it is anticipated that the usage of ventilators will increase in the years to come due to the increased number of ICU admissions.
