Portland, OR -- (SBWire) -- 10/26/2017 --The infant incubator or neonatal incubator is a device that has a rigid box-like enclosure in which a preterm infant is kept. This device provides controlled environment for premature babies. Infant incubator is majorly of two types-neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) incubator and transport infant incubator. The NICU incubator includes a heating element, a water bath to add humidity, a fan for forced convection, an oxygen inlet, and access port for nursing care. Whereas, transport infant incubator is used to transfer baby to different rooms of a hospital or even outside during an emergency. The global infant incubator market accounted for $268 million in 2016 and is expected to reach $401 million by 2023 with a CAGR of 5.9% from 2017-2023.
Growth in premature infant deaths due to various causes such as neonatal hypothermia, breathing difficulties, and other diseases increase the demand of infant incubators as they provide controlled environment for infant survival. In addition, the rise in birth rate of preterm infants owing to unhealthy lifestyle habits such as smoking & drinking, growth in pregnancy problems is expected to boost the growth of the infant incubator market. However, the high cost of infant incubators and the minimal availability of these infant incubators especially in the underdeveloped and few developing countries impede the market growth. Moreover, technological advancements in neonatal care devices is anticipated to provide lucrative growth opportunities to the market.
