FOREWORD
Universal healthcare coverage has begun to slowly create ripples of efficiency within the enormous structure of the healthcare system. Globally, the rising costs of healthcare stand in contrast to contracting budgets and credit defaults. The percentage of GDP devoted in most countries to healthcare has not dropped, but has slowed in its ascent.
Science and technology improvements have continued, and we now see iPADs as prevalently as the stethoscope. iPhones that relate vital statistics are also becoming part of the clinician’s tool belt.
This Healthcare Research Review provides a sampling of the type of quantitative market information, analysis and guidance that has been aiding business decision making since BCC was founded in 1971. It includes highlights of reports published in 2011 on the following healthcare markets:

Report Highlights
-
The global market for medical imaging systems is estimated to be $17 billion in 2009 and is forecast to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8% from 2009 to 2014. Ultrasound systems comprise 29% of the global medical imaging systems market. X-ray systems are next, with a 24% share. Positron emission tomography has seen growth but it is the smallest segment. The X-ray market is growing well due to the introduction of digital technology.

BCC Research estimates that technological improvements and changes in health care cost control will cause the demand for medical device sensors to increase at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.1% between 2009 and 2014, when it will approach $9 billion. Perhaps more important, much of the growth will be in one class of technology—semiconductor/MEMS sensors—which will experience a 5% CAGR as the three older technologies see minimal growth or even a decrease.

The sleep aids markets reached revenues of $25 billion in 2009. The United States is overwhelmingly the leader in the worldwide market for sleep aids due to lifestyle pressures, more disposable income, and education about sleep disorders. The worldwide economic climate adversely affected the market in 2008 and 2009. However, industry experts anticipate that the recovery will be slow but steady from 2010 to 2014. Revenues are anticipated to reach $33.2 billion in 2014, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8% over the forecast period of 2009 to 2014.
