INTRODUCTION
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) have now become the leading cause of mortality in India. Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a group of disorders of the heart and blood vessels, including coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, peripheral arterial disease, rheumatic heart disease, congenital heart disease, deep vein thrombosis, and pulmonary embolism. A quarter of all mortality is attributable to CVD. Ischemic heart disease and stroke are the predominant causes and are responsible for >80% of CVD deaths.
Individuals at risk of CVD may demonstrate raised blood pressure, glucose, and lipids as well as overweight and obesity. Identifying those at the highest risk of CVDs and ensuring they receive appropriate treatment can prevent premature deaths. Access to essential NCD medicines and basic health technologies in all primary healthcare facilities is essential to ensure that those in need receive treatment and counseling.
MARKET OVERVIEW OF CARDIOLOGY IN INDIA
- Revenue in the Cardiology Devices segment in India is projected to reach US$0.85 bn in 2023.
- Revenue is expected to show an annual growth rate (CAGR 2023-2027) of 10.52%, resulting in a market volume of US$1.26bn by 2027.
- The market is growing at a rapid pace due to the usage of advanced and latest devices in cardio rhythms such as pacemakers, defibrillators, implantable cardiovascular defibrillators, and cardio resynchronization therapy devices, which assist in the treatment of heart abnormalities, which boost the sales of Indian cardiology market.
CARDIAC MARKET GROWTH DRIVERS IN INDIA
CARDIAC MARKET CHALLENGES IN INDIA
CARDIOLOGY INVENTIONS
- BARC develops credit card-size ECG machine that will cost around Rs 4,000
It is just slightly bigger than your debit or credit card and it is a full-fledged ECG machine. A team from Bhabha Atomic Research Centre has developed a compact ECG machine, which will also be pocket friendly. The researchers claim that people will be able to afford one of these machines for their private use, just the way they use a personal blood sugar monitor or blood pressure monitor.
Also, an app will connect the device to a smartphone and the user will not have to undergo any special training to operate this little wonder. The BARC team estimates that the machine dubbed Tele-ECG would be priced at around Rs 4,000. The commercial machines currently available in the market cost between Rs 40,000 and Rs 50,000.
- Indian innovation offers cheap and effective tests for heart disease
Scientists at the Healthcare Technology Innovation Centre (HTIC) in the southern Indian city of Chennai have invented a friendly device that keeps a check on artery stiffness and gives an alert when issues arise. The device, which is about the size of a digital television set-top box, has been tested in three different clinical trials. All tests found the Indian machine to be on par with the commonly used imaging system.
PREVALENCE OF CORONARY HEART DISEASE IN INDIA
- Cardiovascular diseases have been gaining importance in India recently because of the increased incidence of the disease. It is the first among the top 5 causes of death in the Indian population.
- In India, studies have reported increasing CHD prevalence over the last 60 years, from 1% to 9%-10% in urban populations and <1% to 4%-6% in rural populations.
- In the 30-74 age group, the overall 10-year risk of cardiovascular disease in women is 12.7%, as compared to 21.4% in men.
- CVD risk tended to be the highest in south India (including Goa), the three most northern states in the dataset (Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, and Uttarakhand), the north-eastern states (except Assam), and West Bengal (particularly among males).
- By 2030, almost 23.6 million will die from CVDs, mainly from heart disease and stroke.
