According to Transparency Market Research, the global durable medical equipment (DME) market is expected to be worth US$228.65 mn by the end of 2025 from US$112.30 mn in 2016. During the forecast period of 2017 and 2025, the global market is expected to surge at a CAGR of 8.3%. Amongst the various types of equipment, the bathroom safety devices are expected to drive the global market. Increasing awareness about ensuring bathroom safety, especially within households, to avert traumatic injuries is expected to favor this segment in the near future. Geographically, Asia Pacific is expected to lead the global market in the coming years. The increasing geriatric population in this region is expected to drive the market.
