“Shift Toward Non-Invasive and Portable Monitoring Solutions”
- A key and accelerating trend in the global capnography consumables market is the growing preference for non-invasive and portable respiratory monitoring, driven by the increasing demand for patient comfort, faster diagnosis, and point-of-care applications across healthcare settings
- For instance, Microstream capnography technology by Medtronic enables low-flow and accurate CO₂ monitoring with specialized nasal cannulas and airway adapters designed for both intubated and non-intubated patients. Such consumables are tailored for compact, transportable monitors used in ambulances, emergency rooms, and homecare settings
- With the rising burden of respiratory diseases and emphasis on early detection and continuous monitoring, healthcare providers are increasingly relying on portable capnography devices supported by disposable and easy-to-use consumables. This ensures hygienic usage across multiple patients while reducing cross-contamination risks
- The demand for consumables such as nasal cannulas and sampling lines compatible with handheld and wearable capnography systems is expanding, especially in outpatient and prehospital care environments. These components are crucial in enabling flexible monitoring outside traditional ICU or OR setups
- This trend is reshaping how capnography is implemented—moving from primarily operating room use to becoming a standard of care across ambulatory, emergency, and homecare settings. Companies such as Philips and Masimo are innovating compact systems that integrate with cloud-based data platforms and offer consumables tailored for mobility and patient-friendly application
- The transition towards portable, patient-centric, and non-invasive solutions is fueling consistent demand for high-quality, disposable capnography consumables and expanding the market's reach into new care models and remote monitoring applications
