Market Overview:

The Asthma and COPD Devices Market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.8% from 2024 to 2031. The market value is expected to increase from USD XX billion in 2024 to USD YY billion by 2031.

North America currently dominates the market, with key metrics indicating a high prevalence of asthma and COPD in the region. The market is experiencing steady growth due to increasing awareness about respiratory diseases, technological advancements in inhaler devices, and a growing aging population prone to respiratory ailments.

 

Market Dynamics:

Market Trend: Rising adoption of smart inhalers and connected devices for better disease management

The asthma and COPD device market is shifting significantly towards smart inhalers and connected devices. These new technologies use sensors and mobile applications to monitor medicine use, send reminders, and collect data on patient adherence and lung function. This trend is being pushed by the growing emphasis on personalised therapy and the need for improved disease management. Smart inhalers provide real-time monitoring and data analysis, allowing healthcare providers to make more educated judgements and change treatment programs accordingly. The incorporation of artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms into these devices expands their capabilities, allowing for predictive analysis and early detection of exacerbations. As patients become more tech-savvy and seek greater control over their health, the use of smart inhalers is projected to increase, revolutionising how respiratory disorders are managed.

Market Driver: Increasing prevalence of asthma and COPD worldwide

Asthma and COPD are becoming more common around the world, which is a major driver of the market. According to the World Health Organisation, asthma affects more than 339 million people worldwide, whereas COPD affects around 384 million people. According to the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately 25 million individuals in the United States suffer with asthma, with 5.1 million children among them. Air pollution, smoking, occupational dangers, and genetic susceptibility all contribute to the increasing prevalence of these respiratory disorders. As the number of patients grows, so does the demand for effective and easy-to-use inhalers, nebulisers, and other respiratory equipment. Furthermore, the economic burden of chronic diseases, which is expected to be more than $80 billion per year in the United States, is causing healthcare systems to invest in improved management tools and technology, accelerating market growth.

Market Restraint: High cost of advanced inhaler devices limiting adoption in developing regions

The high cost of modern inhaler devices and smart inhalers poses a substantial barrier to market expansion, particularly in developing nations. While these devices improve medicine delivery and patient monitoring, their high cost often prevents them from reaching a large proportion of the patient population in poor and middle-income nations. According to studies, the expense of asthma and COPD therapy, including devices, can account for up to 25% of a family's income in some poor countries. This price burden causes poor treatment adherence and dependence on less effective, older generation devices, impeding total market growth in these locations.

 

Segment Overview:

Inhalers dominate the product type segment, driven by their convenience and effectiveness in drug delivery.

The inhalers sector dominates the asthma and COPD devices industry, accounting for over 70% of total sales. This dominance is due to the vast range of inhaler types available, such as metered-dose inhalers (MDIs), dry powder inhalers (DPIs), and soft mist inhalers (SMIs), which cater to various patient preferences and demands. Patients and healthcare providers choose inhalers because of their portability, convenience of use, and direct drug administration to the lungs.

Recent advances in inhaler technology have strengthened their commercial position. For example, the introduction of breath-actuated inhalers has addressed the prevalent issue of poor inhaler technique, resulting in increased medicine effectiveness. Industry giants such as GlaxoSmithKline and AstraZeneca have been at the forefront of innovation, introducing digital inhalers equipped with sensors that track usage trends and provide real-time feedback to patients and physicians.

The market has also seen an increase of ecologically friendly inhalers. Chiesi Farmaceutici introduced the first carbon minimum pressurised metered-dose inhaler (pMDI) for asthma and COPD in the United Kingdom in 2020, in response to growing environmental concerns. This approach has been well-received, with other corporations following suit, showing a shift towards more sustainable respiratory care options.

 

Regional Outlook:

North America leads the global asthma and COPD devices market, driven by high disease prevalence and advanced healthcare infrastructure.

North America dominates the asthma and COPD device industry, accounting for over 40% of the global total. The region's high frequency of respiratory disorders, well-established healthcare infrastructure, and early adoption of sophisticated medical technologies have all contributed to its leadership position. The United States, in particular, has been at the forefront of market growth, thanks to strong research and development efforts and favourable reimbursement regulations for respiratory devices.

Recent North American market trends indicate an increasing emphasis on digital health solutions for asthma and COPD management. For example, the FDA's approval of many digital medicines and connected inhaler devices has paved the door for more personalised and data-driven treatment strategies.

Key data highlight North America's vast commercial potential. According to the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately 25 million Americans suffer from asthma, and 16 million adults have COPD. These large patient numbers result in a significant demand for breathing devices.

In Canada, the government's emphasis on minimising the economic cost of respiratory disorders has resulted in increasing financing for innovative device development. The Canadian Respiratory Research Network's new initiative to improve COPD care through technology-enabled solutions is projected to accelerate market growth in the country.
