Global patient temperature management market is anticipated to reach a value of USD 4.6 billion by 2025, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Rising number of surgeries is anticipated to accelerate the demand for temperature management devices. For instance, open heart surgeries require lowering down of patient’s body heat through blood cooling, which helps in reducing the risk of post and perioperative surgical complications.

With growing prevalence of cardiac arrest and other chronic cardiac diseases, there is a rising number of surgeries being undertaken. Hence, this raises the need for patient temperature management, in order to avoid the adverse effects on brain. Patient warming systems are also used for cancer patients as adjuncts with chemotherapy and radiation therapy for more effective results. Moreover, in neonatal care, newborns are likely to experience temperature fluctuations and hence, they are kept in incubators to maintain their normal body temperature. As a result, the aforementioned factors are giving rise to high demand for temperature monitoring devices.

Advancements in technology have also enhanced the product portfolio of temperature management devices. For instance, 3M revolutionized its Bair Hugger brand, which includes a complete portfolio of blankets, such as underbody, full body, specialty, and others. The blood & fluid temperature management systems have also evolved with new technology, facilitating circulation of warm or cool saline with the help of a catheter to the patient’s body. Thus, rising technological advancements have led to high market growth.
