The Global Healthcare Service Robots Market in 2023 was valued at USD 6.5 Billion and is proactively expected to rise to USD 15.8 Billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 14.2% during the forecast period. The industry is multiplying due to increasing investment in the development of healthcare infrastructure, the focus on controlling hospital-acquired infections, and the deployment of healthcare service robots during the novel coronavirus pandemic. The healthcare service robots market refers to the industry involved in the development, production, and deployment of robots specifically designed for use in healthcare settings. These robots are designed to assist healthcare professionals, enhance patient care, and improve operational efficiency in various healthcare environments, such as hospitals, clinics, nursing homes, and home care settings.Healthcare service robots can perform a wide range of tasks, including patient monitoring, medication management, disinfection and sterilization, surgical assistance, rehabilitation support, and logistics management. They are equipped with advanced sensors, artificial intelligence (AI), and machine learning algorithms to navigate complex environments, interact with patients and healthcare staff, and perform tasks autonomously or under remote supervision.
Healthcare services are also currently exploring the potential of technologies such AI, ML algorithms, and sensors for robotic systems. Healthcare robots are form of skilled service robot used in and out of the hospital to increase the overall quality of patient care. They ease the workload of medical personnel, enabling them to spend more time caring for the patients directly, while generating substantial operational efficiencies and reducing healthcare facilities costs.
The numerous applications of today’s medical robots include remote care telepresence robots, hospital acquired infection control robotic disinfectants, blood drainage robots and muscle recovery exoskeletons for robotics and remote medical robot. Increased automation technology, improvement in technical advances, booming population growth and reduced mortality rate, rising human impairment, an acute shortage of healthcare professional supplies, the need for better surgeons, an increase in the quality of life for the elderly and the disabled are some of the driving forces for the international health-robots industry.
Market Segmentation
Based on the applications
• Applications from Neurology
• Cardiology
• Orthopedic
• Laparoscopic
• Others
During the forecast era, the section of orthopedic surgery application should report the highest CAGR. The high growth of this segment can mainly be attributed to the advantages such as high implantation and robotic positioning accuracy during orthopedic operations.
Based on Product type
• Surgical Robots
• Rehabilitation Robots
• Robots for Telemedicine
• Robots for Pharmacy and Hospital Automation
• Robots for Non-Invasive Radiation and Robotic Catheters
Rapid advances in surgical robots along with increasing per-capita healthcare costs in developing countries, and increased demand for minimally invasive surgeries (MIS) or Da Vinci System are some of the main factors in the global market that lead to a higher share of surgical robots.
Based on component segmentation:
• Security Systems
• Locomotive Systems
• Interface Applications
• Software Platforms
• Power Resources and Visualization Systems
Based on the component robots involved in Security systems is having the highest scope. Although billions are spent on R&D in self-sufficient cars, indoor commercial space robots reap the benefits of technology and costs for sensors, computer science, machine learning, and open-source software. As the budget for commercial security expenses rises and a largely untapped market availability increases, the safety robot’s industry is expected to expand at a significant rate.
