“Growing Need Due to Rising Cardiovascular Incidences and Remote Monitoring Adoption”
- The increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases, coupled with the growing demand for remote patient monitoring technologies, is a significant driver for the heightened demand for Mobile Cardiac Telemetry (MCT) solutions in Canada
- For instance, in April 2024, Onity, Inc. (Honeywell International, Inc.) announced an advancement in IoT-based self-storage security, which reflects the broader trend of integrating advanced sensor technology—similar innovations are now being adapted in healthcare, particularly within Canada’s MCT sector to enable real-time cardiac data transmission and monitoring
- As the population ages and chronic conditions such as arrhythmias and atrial fibrillation become more prevalent, MCT devices offer critical benefits including continuous heart rhythm monitoring, real-time alerts, and timely interventions, which traditional Holter monitors may lack
- Furthermore, the rising use of telehealth platforms and digital health ecosystems is making MCT systems an essential component of remote healthcare delivery, supporting clinicians in making faster, data-driven decisions
- The convenience of real-time monitoring, wireless data transmission, and the ability to detect asymptomatic or intermittent cardiac events are key factors propelling the adoption of MCT in both hospital and homecare settings. The trend towards at-home diagnostics and the increasing availability of user-friendly, wearable MCT devices further contribute to market growth
