One of the major factors propelling the surge in the demand for point-of-care ultrasound (PoCUS) devices in the European Union (EU) is the increasing prevalence of lifestyle-related and chronic diseases, such as cancer and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), in the region. As per the European Society of Cardiology, in 2017, the deaths caused due to CVDs came out to be 37% of the total deaths in the EU. The World Health Organization (WHO) had estimated the number of deaths caused by cancer to reach 1.4 million in the EU by the end of 2019, though the actual number might have been higher.

European Union (EU) Point-of-Care Ultrasound (PoCUS) Device Market How is Soaring Geriatric Population Propelling European Union (EU) Point-of-Care Ultrasound (PoCUS) Device Market? Heart diseases kill around 18 million people each year, says the World Health Organization (WHO). In case of the European Union (EU), specifically, more than half of all the deaths are caused by cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The prevalence of these and other chronic diseases is rising because of genetic factors, as well as poor lifestyle choices, such as excessive consumption of fatty food and alcohol and lack of exercise. The key to diagnosing all such diseases as well as tracking the effect of medication and other forms of treatment is medical imaging, such as ultrasound. Advancements in technology have led to the development of point-of-care ultrasound or PoCUS, which is essentially a portable form of the imaging equipment.

With PoCUS, instead of patients visiting medical centers for the tests, the imaging equipment comes to them, be it an emergency room, their hospital room, or house. This is especially beneficial for the elderly, who cannot always visit a full-scale hospital. Here, primary care physicians mostly diagnose and treat them, which is why such professionals are increasingly adopting PoCUS devices in the EU. Access Detailed Report Summary: https://www.psmarketresearch.com/market-analysis/eu-pocus-device-market According to the EU, people aged 65 years or more made up 19.7% of its total population in 2018, which was a growth of around 0.3% from 2017. These estimates echo those of the WHO, which say that compared to 19 million in 2020, Europe would be home to 40 million people in the age group of 85 and more by 2050. Such people have a higher chance of getting sick, as their normal biological functions slow down and their immunity level decreases. Further, as they are also physically weak, they also get hurt more often, which, sometimes, requires the use of ultrasound to ascertain the seriousness of the injury. Historically, Germany was the largest EU PoCUS device market, as the incidence of chronic diseases here is quite high. Additionally, the healthcare expenditure in the country is rapidly rising
European Union (EU) Point-of-Care Ultrasound (PoCUS) Device Market as is the number of diagnostic centers and full-fledged hospitals here. Another reason behind the high uptake of point-of-care ultrasound devices here is its geriatric population, which, according to the United Nations, would make up for 37.6% of its total population by 2050, compared to 28.0% in 2017. Therefore, as the number of the elderly increases, thereby resulting in the rising incidence of various diseases, the usage of PoCUS devices would also grow in the EU.
