The growing preference for highly equipped hospital beds with innovative features fuels the overall market growth. Further, the Increasing popularity of smart hospital beds is emerging as a key trend in the market. According to a report by the National Institute of Health (NIH), there is a high demand for equipped, facilitated beds, which help prevent other physiological complications among patients, which include bedsores.As per a report by the Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research (MFMER), a patient suffering from bedsores has medical conditions limiting the ability to change positions in bed resulting to cause bedsores due to their spending most of their time in a bed. Bedsores are categorized into several stages based on depth, severity, and other characteristics such as the degree of skin and tissue damage, ranging from changes in skin color to a severe injury involving muscle and bone. However, the development of information technology (IT) in healthcare, i.e., healthcare IT-based medical equipment such as smart hospital beds, involving the use of wireless sensor networks (WSNs), has resulted in easy and quick service acting as a solution to prevent bedsores in motionless and disabled patients. With simple applications (apps), hospital bed has been transformed into highly-networked appliances, which are categorized as Class 2 Medical Devices seeking electronic intelligence. For example, modern hospital beds are equipped with a monitor screen that shows the health status of patients and enables remote transmission of data to the nurse station. Additional modules include tilt accelerometers and motor drives to control the tilt of the bed, powered wheels to facilitate the movement of the patient to different areas of the hospital, USB and Ethernet ports to aid in connectivity with a PC or a hospital network, and an LCD screen and keypad for the user interface, which allow healthcare providers to offer comfort to patients. In October 2020, Stryker launched the hospital bed named "ProCuity," which is the first wireless hospital bed and only available in the market.This newly launched product is designed to help reduce the fall of patients in hospitals, improve the efficiencies and safety of nurses, and lower hospital operating costs. This bed can connect seamlessly to nurse call systems without the use of cables and wires. The aforementioned factors determine an increase in the need for hospital beds in various regions across the globe, which is boosting the growth of the during the forecast period.

The projected growth of the hospital bed market in Asia Pacific is attributed to the accelerated economic growth of countries such as China and Japan, the growing focus of governments in these countries on the healthcare sector, the rising prevalence of chronic diseases, and increased investment from government bodies for the expansion of healthcare facilities amid the COVID-19 pandemic along with favorable regulatory reforms. Future Trends in Hospital Bed Market The increasing popularity of smart hospital beds would lead to significant trends in the global hospital bed market during the forecast period.According to a report by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), continuous patient monitoring during hospitalization is necessary for risk identification, and early diagnosis and treatment—resulting in reduced mortality and morbidity, and hospitalization costs. The fall of patients from bed, and bedsores or pressure sores can seriously harm them.Pressure ulcers or bedsores can be avoided by timely, accurate mapping of pressure points for inhibiting tissue perfusion, which might lead to a patient’s death. Smart hospital beds, enabled with advanced technologies, have highly developed embedded control functions and interactivity.They support new functionalities such as continuous monitoring of patients’ vital signs, preventing them from falling off the bed, and averting the development of pressure ulcers. In September 2021, Baxter announced a collaboration with Hillrom, Inc. for developing smart hospital beds with Hillrom, accounting for US$ 10.5 billion. In October 2020, Stryker announced the launch of "ProCuity," which is the first and only wireless hospital bed available in the market. This newly launched product is designed to help reduce the fall of patients in hospitals, improve the efficiencies and safety of nurses, and lower hospital operating costs.
