Market Analysis and Size
The market for fetal monitoring is estimated to increase rapidly over the forecast period. Preterm births have become more common in recent decades. According to the World Health Organization's 2018 fact sheet, around 15 million new-borns are born around the world before reaching 37 weeks of pregnancy, with preterm birth rates ranging from 5% to 18% of all babies born in 184 countries. These premature babies have been proven to be susceptible to illnesses and infections. As a result, these neonates are monitored using monitoring devices. The demand for monitoring devices and equipment has risen as a result of these causes. Hence, this led to the introduction of fetal monitoring system in the market.

COVID-19 Impact on Fetal Monitoring Market
The COVID-19 pandemic's influence and the resulting lockdown were seen in various industries, including the fetal monitoring industry. The decrease in foetal monitoring procedures during the COVID-19 pandemic was mostly due to a decrease in hospital patient load as a result of rescheduling and delaying procedures for safety reasons. Additionally, these delays occurred after a thorough examination of the patient's medical history, and if possible, foetal monitoring was rescheduled to reduce the danger of COVID-19 exposure during hospital visits. Furthermore, due to new government directives or hospital recommendations, foetal surveillance has been curtailed in areas severely affected by COVID-19. As a result, the COVID-19 pandemic has a detrimental impact on the foetal monitoring industry.
Recent Development
- In June 2020, Philips launched an obstetrics monitoring solution to support clinicians and expectant mothers during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Avalon CL Fetal and Maternal Pod and Patch aims to decrease needless physical encounters between clinicians and patients, which is especially important during the COVID-19 pandemic. The patch is part of a larger high-risk pregnancy solution from Philips that includes perinatal analytics and visualization software as well as a battery-operated foetal monitor.
