Fetal monitoring is a vital diagnostic tool, which is used for monitoring the heart rate and movement of fetus, and maternal contractions. Fetal monitors are vital devices that are used for monitoring uterine contractions during labor. In addition, they are used for monitoring the progress of labor, and in particular, wellbeing of the fetus. Fetal monitoring is a medical method to check the health of an unborn baby to ensure safe birth of the newborn. Fetal monitors are used in the treatment of disabilities such as mental retardation, vision & hearing problems, chronic lung diseases, hypothermia, jaundice, and neonatal diseases.
The global fetal monitoring market is driven by factors such as surge in preterm births & birth rates, technological advancements, and increase in need for fetal monitoring during pregnancy. In addition, rise in antepartum hemorrhage rate, premature delivery rate, and surge in the need for fetal monitoring supplement the market growth. However, high cost of equipment, stringent regulatory procedures, and low prevalence of birth rates especially in few developed countries impede the market growth. Furthermore, emerging technologies, such as portable & wireless products and untapped emerging economies offer lucrative opportunities for the market players.
