China wearable medical devices market is anticipated to observe an impressive growth during the forecast period, 2024-2028. The growing incidence and prevalence of lifestyle-associated disorders, such as diabetes and hypertension, coupled with increasing awareness about personal health monitoring in the region are propelling the growth of the China wearable medical devices market. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), In China, approximately, 270 million people are suffering from hypertension. Out of which, only 13.8% of the patients have their condition under control and not everyone can have access to its treatment. The growing investments, funding, and grants, as well as a rising adoption of advanced technologies are projected to facilitate the growth of the wearable medical devices market in the upcoming years. Besides, increasing interest among sports and fitness enthusiasts in monitoring their health is expected to support the growth of the market.

Rising Awareness Among Masses

The rapid increase in health awareness among people because of the various campaigns and awareness initiatives run by the Chinese government are surging the demand for the wearable medical devices, which, in turn, is expected to bolster the growth of the market. For instance, in 2021, China’s 14th Five-Year Plan (14th FYP), which is the next five years of China’s journey aims to build a “Healthy China,” which intends to improve overall social conditions, including healthcare. Additionally, more and more people are becoming aware of the use of medical gadgets such as smartwatches, fitness trackers, among others to monitor several physiological parameters.

Growing Prevalence of Lifestyle-Associated Disorders

The rising incidences and prevalence of lifestyle-associated disorders such as diabetes, hypertension, among others, due to sedentary routine are anticipated to propel the growth of the market. These diseases often require continuous tracking and monitoring of physiological parameters. This integration of healthcare data with medical devices helps to record or track everything. In China, approximately 1.08 billion people aged from 20 to 79 years had diabetes in 2021, by far the highest number. The country had around 336 million children and adolescents till age 19 years who are suffering from type one diabetes.

Technological Advancements

Technological developments in wearable medical devices are likely to strengthen the growth of the market. The growing adoption of cutting-edge innovations such as Artificial Intelligence, fifth-generation wireless networks, among others are likely to propel the market’s growth. Also, the recent medical reforms and investments in Artificial Intelligence, analytics, and the IoT have had excellent results in China. Artificial intelligence can be used in 5G to predict a patient's potential diagnosis and treatments. They can help medical systems in predicting which patients are going to experience postoperative difficulties, enabling for early intervention. For instance, in 2021, Apple announced the collaboration with Biogen, a biotech company for new research projected, that is to see how successful mHealth wearable devices are at determining early symptoms of cognitive impairment. Also, it will help healthcare providers to design more effective care management and remote monitoring programs.
