In 2021, the market for Global Connected Drug Delivery Devices worldwide was worth $0.31 billion US dollars. AMR Group projects that the market will reach US$ 1.9 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 21.3 percent between 2022 and 2031.

Industry Overview

Connected drug delivery devices are machines that deliver various medicinal agents into a patient’s body in order supply medical treatment and monitor the patient’s condition. These devices are used to help minimize noncompliance with medication prescriptions and to provide better health care. In residential areas, smart wireless electronic systems known as connected drug delivery devices are utilized to support patient monitoring and counselling. Sensors, adherence trackers, dose reminders, and monitoring systems provide real-time feedback and educational materials for individualized patient care. They are more convenient and less expensive than clinic therapies. As a result, connected drug delivery devices are frequently used in the remote monitoring of patients with conditions such as diabetes, asthma, hepatitis C, hypertension, multiple sclerosis, tuberculosis, clinically isolated disorder, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), and recipients of kidneys and liver transplants. It has been found that connected drug delivery devices can enable physicians monitor patient compliance with their recommended therapy and modify a patient’s treatment as necessary. The acceptance of connected drug delivery devices is expected to be amplified by a rise in efforts to educate people about the complications caused by medication under or overdosing.

Connected drug delivery devices combine features like access to a variety of online services. Many market players are developing devices to aid in enhanced care monitoring and therapy. Many connected drug delivery systems involve adherence monitors, drug reminders, patient records to gather health information, and patient education opportunities. These devices are commonly used to treat asthma, COPD, diabetes, and other cardiovascular diseases. Because of rising rates of asthma, COPD, and diabetes, the Connected Drug Delivery Devices Market is expected to grow throughout the forecast period, providing a lucrative opportunity for increased use of connected drug delivery devices and increased market revenue.

Market Dynamics

The rapidly growing cost of medical management, as well as the growing need to improve patient treatment outcomes, are driving demand for connected drug delivery devices. In addition, a shift in preferences toward home-based care is fueling market growth. Furthermore, the growing number of people suffering from chronic diseases, combined with a greater emphasis on preventive care, is positively influencing the market. Furthermore, the widespread use of connected devices in laboratories and hospitals for the maintenance of Electronic Health Records (EHR) is expected to drive market growth.

The increased R&D activities are a key market driver. It also contributes to an exponential growth rate due to the robust product pipeline of several key players, which is expected to be commercially launched during the forecast period. In May 2021, for example, Eli Lilly and Company collaborated with four companies – DexCom, Inc., Glooko Inc., Roche, and myDiabby Healthcare to develop connected solutions for diabetics in markets outside of the United States. The companies’ diabetes management platforms are expected to be complementary with Lilly’s Tempo Pen and Tempo Smart Button to help diabetes patients, thereby propelling market growth. However, the patient treatments data security is the major risk related to connected delivery device solutions which could reduce the market revenue during the anticipated period.

COVID Impact

The Connected Drug Delivery Devices market has shown a positive impact during the COVID-19 pandemic period. The market, increased provider and patient awareness of connected devices, adoption, and the importance of remote monitoring for medication adherence. Adherium Limited, a key respiratory eHealth company, for example, reported COVID-driven acceleration in remote patient monitoring across the globe in 2021. However, the company encountered difficulties in moving forward with planned pilot evaluations with partners in the United States due to the pandemic. Due to the relaxation of movement restrictions and improved hospital access, the company anticipates a strong series of positive commercial and R&D activities in 2022.

Regional Trend

Geographically, the global Connected Drug Delivery Devices market is segmented into North America, Latin America, Asia Pacific, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. North America is dominating the largest share of the global Connected Drug Delivery Devices market with a share of 30% in 2021. North America holds the highest market share due to the region’s high per capita healthcare spending, rapid adoption of technology presence of key players, and growing adoption of remote monitoring for medication adherence. Moreover, Asia Pacific is lined up to register the fastest growth at a rate of over 24% during the forecast period. The growing number of companies and initiatives deployed by them is expected to fuel regional growth in the Asia-Pacific market. Adherium, for example, is a public company based in New Zealand that focuses on developing solutions for remote monitoring, patient adherence, and data management in the respiratory field.
