(PharmaNewsWire.Com, January 14, 2017 ) Brain monitoring systems are used to measure the electrical or neuronal activity of the brain for various reasons such as to calculate bispectral index (depth of anesthesia); diagnosis and monitoring of neurological and brain disorders, sleep disorders, trauma injury; to monitor intracranial pressure and many other. These devices can be invasive or non-invasive and are also used to guide the brain surgeries and to check the health outcomes of treatment of brain disorders. These devices use either intracranial pressure and blood flow dynamics or electrical impulses as an indicator of brain activity, whereas interpretation of data from brain monitoring system relies on thorough knowledge of the clinician and technical aspects of methodology in use. Some of the examples of brain monitoring systems include intracranial pressure (ICP) monitors, electroencephalograph (EEG) monitors, oximeters, Transcranial Doppler sonography etc.
Brain Monitoring System Market: Drivers and Restraints
Increasing incidence of neurological and brain disorders is the major driver expected to fuel the global Brain Monitoring System Market during the forecast period. According to World Health Organization findings neurological and cerebrovascular disorders respectively contributed to 2% and 4.3% of worldwide weight of illness in 2005. Technological advancement, increasing demand due to post-surgical cerebrovascular accidents, prevalence of trauma injury are some additional factors expected to drive the growth of global brain monitoring devices market. However, high cost of devices will always remain as a restraint for the growth of global brain monitoring systems market.
