The clinical alarm management market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The market size for clinical alarm management has seen swift expansion in the past few years. The expected growth is from $2.83 billion in 2024 to $3.39 billion in 2025, marking a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.7%. Factors contributing to the growth over the historic period include concerns over patient safety, regulatory compliance, the growing complexity of healthcare devices, efforts to alleviate alarm fatigue, initiatives around patient-centered care, and the risk of adverse events.
The Clinical Alarm Management market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The market for clinical alarm management is predicted to undergo rapid expansion in the upcoming years, reaching a value of $7.85 billion by 2029, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 23.4%.
Growth in this period is linked to the spread of remote patient management, population health management tendencies, the advent of patient engagement solutions, data analysis for alarm enhancement, and global readiness for health crises. Looking ahead, the key trends expected to shape this market include the introduction of artificial intelligence (AI), the use of advanced analytics and predictive algorithms, compatibility and integration with electronic health records (EHRs), wireless and mobile services, protection against cyber threats, collaboration and partnerships between vendors, and the implementation of continuous monitoring technologies.
The expansion of the clinical alarm management market is likely to be fueled by the escalating instances of alarm fatigue. Alarm fatigue is a term that describes the sensory overstimulation that healthcare providers experience due to excessive alarm alerts, which can lead to overlooked alarms and delayed reactions. Alarm fatigue has been linked to several patient fatalities. Hospitals are progressively identifying alarm fatigue as a vital safety concern, prompting prioritizing alarm management. Clinical alarm management systems are designed to handle and lessen alarm fatigue through the use of contemporary clinical communication tools. For instance, a study published by the BMJ, a British Medical Association-owned UK medical journal, in 2023, highlighted that alarm fatigue is a growing issue in healthcare facilities for patients. The causes of false alarms include patient movement, incorrect positioning, and early removal of a device. It is estimated that over 70% of alarms might be false, ultimately hampering patient safety. As a result, the increase in alarm fatigue is boosting the application of clinical alarm management solutions, consequently driving the growth of the clinical alarm management market.
