However, the rising popularity of minimally invasive surgeries and availing ambulatory surgical and healthcare centers by patients, and decreased funding for public hospitals mar result in less adoption of advanced beds that may hamper the growth of the hospital beds market.

Moreover, companies are launching new products to meet the growing demands. For example, Stryker Corporation has developed a low-cost, limited-release emergency medical bed to help healthcare providers with efficient care during the COVID-19 outbreak.
