Biofeedback Measurement Instrument Market continues to grow with growing cases of neurological disorders and clinical depression worldwide

 

Biofeedback measurement instruments that require an external power supply for functioning. There are many types of biofeedback measurement instruments that need an external power supply for functioning. For example, a pump is used for measuring the pressure exerted on a water bottle when the bottle is squeezed. Another example is the pressure gauge connected to a machine that pumps air in and out of a car engine. Biofeedback measurement is a critical technique in the diagnosis and treatment of various neurological disorders, which include anxiety, depression, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). As per the Alzheimer’s Association, in 2021, around 6.2 million people aged 65 years and above are living with Alzheimer’s disease in the U.S. As per the Parkinson’s Foundation, around 60,000 people in the U.S. are diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease each year. Such high incidence of neurological diseases has necessitated adequate diagnostic methods, which could accelerate growth of the biofeedback measurement instrument market.

Biofeedback measurement instruments that do not incorporate an arguing but use an analog computer like an ARM or Neurofiber. The analog computer used here is programmed with various software applications including applications that translate biofeedback measurements into voltage, current, and time signals that can be read by various software applications. Since there is a high burden of neurological disorder cases in the U.S., the demand for biofeedback measurement instruments is going to surge in the near future. In fact, as per the Global Burden of Disease study, in 2017, around 9.3% of males and 11.9% of females were suffering from mental health disorders. On the contrary, Europe seems to exhibit promising signs in the biofeedback measurement instrument market due to rising number of mental disorders.     

Another common application of these software applications is for measuring brainwaves. By measuring brain waves, it is possible to determine whether or not a person has a brain tumor or if the person has a temporary mental block. There are certain challenges that could impede the development of the market. For instance, stringent product approval can be a major issue, which would increase the time for the product to actually enter the market. On the contrary, frequent product recalls can inhibit growth of the biofeedback measurement instrument market.

Another key factor aiding the demand for biofeedback measurement instruments is increasing cases of depression cases. Clinical depression is a mental health disorder, which is characterized by persistent loss of mood or loss of interest in activities, which can cause impairment in daily life. As per the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2020, over 264 million people of all ages suffer from depression globally. Such factors can stimulate growth of the biofeedback measurement instrument market.
