U.S. Hospital Emergency Department Market: Trends and Future Outlook

نشر بتاريخ 2025-01-31 06:20:59

The U.S. hospital emergency department market size is expected to reach USD 246.3 billion by 2030, based on a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. It is projected to register a CAGR of 5.75% during the forecast period. The rising prevalence of diseases requiring immediate care, such as cardiac arrest, is expected to drive the growth of this market. Hospital Emergency Departments (EDs) are preferred by individuals needing emergency care due to the 24-hour availability of care over other medical centers. There has been an increase in patients with acute psychiatric crises visiting hospital Eds in the last few years. According to the National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey, in 2021, there were around 2.43 million ED visits due to problems related to psychological and mental disorders. Furthermore, a total of 2.4 million ED visits occurred due to diseases of the nervous system.

Neurologic emergencies include conditions such as stroke, migraine, Alzheimer's disease, and others. Stroke is a major contributor to ED visits, with around 5,311,000 individuals suffering a stroke annually. This is likely to increase the number of ER visits in the coming years. To meet the high demand for EDs and create awareness, hospitals are adopting new technologies and conducting various business activities. For instance, in January 2022, Novant Health announced a collaborative partnership with Aidoc, an enterprise-grade artificial intelligence (AI) solution for medical imaging providers. This partnership aims to accelerate the treatment of patients in the emergency department using AI technology. Moreover, there is a trend of adopting new treatment options, such as AI and telehealth, for emergency care of acute illnesses and injuries.
