Factors Governing Sleeping Aids Market
One of the main developments observed in the sleeping aids market is the growing acceptance of wearable monitoring devices. These devices have sensors that not only help monitor and transmit data concerning the patient’s specific medical conditions but also perform other functions, such as sleep quality assessment and sleep disorders monitoring. Among the wearable devices available in the market include, BioHarness manufactured by BIOPAC Systems Inc. and Zio XT manufactured by iRhythm Technologies Inc. These wearable devices are easy to use, and have been a preferred choice of patients suffering from sleep disorders.
Furthermore, the rising use of portable sleep apnea devices is set to propel the market, as these devices provide support, by pushing air into the back of the throat where throat tissues collapse during sleep. Some of the devices used to treat sleep apnea operate by splinting the airway open throughout the inhalation and exhalation phase. It is found that these tools are safe to use and do not cause any side-effects. Moreover, other technological advances, such as the use of algorithms and pressure sensors to determine the best strain, add up more benefits to these products.
The rising disposable income provides growth opportunities to the players in the global sleeping aids market. Globally, hike in disposable income has led to an increase in spending power of an individual and has also contributed to the increased adoption of sleeping aids to treat sleep-related disorders. According to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), the household disposable income (annual growth rates) in Germany and Denmark increased from 1.6% and 1.2% in 2014 to 2.5% and 2.8% in 2016, respectively. Thus, with the rise in household disposable income, the purchasing power of the population also increases, leading to the increased affordability of people to treat their sleep-related disorders.
