The global veterinary ECG systems market size is expected to reach USD 154.76 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 6.76% over the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The primary market growth drivers include the increasing prevalence of arrhythmia and other cardiac complications, evolving R&D initiatives, growing awareness initiatives, and the emerging role of continuous medical education (CME). There has been a steady increase in the prevalence of cardiac complications among animals in recent years. Educational institutions worldwide are actively involved in identifying the leading cardiac complications. For instance, VIMN Education Ltd published an academic article on leading arrhythmia in dogs and cats.
The most common ventricular arrhythmias in dogs and cats include Ventricular Premature Contractions (VPCs), Accelerated Idioventricular Rhythm (AIVR), Ventricular Tachycardia (VTach), and Ventricular Fibrillation (VF). VPCs are irregular heartbeats from the ventricles that may not be serious unless frequent or rapid. AIVR consists of four or more VPCs in a row, typically presenting a heart rate of 60-160 beats per minute and often resolving with treatment of underlying conditions. VTach is a critical condition with a heart rate of over 160 beats per minute, requiring urgent intervention to prevent poor perfusion. VF is life-threatening, characterized by quivering ventricles, necessitating immediate CPR and defibrillation to restore normal rhythm.
Furthermore, a multi-year study conducted from 2008 to 2014 studied the prevalence of arrhythmias in dogs. According to the research, out of the total sample population, around 52% showed signs of arrhythmias, and the most commonly diagnosed were atrial fibrillation (33.68%), sinus pauses (27.58%), ventricular arrhythmias (28%), supraventricular arrhythmias (24%), and atrioventricular blocks or AV block (22.95%).
A February 2024 article by PetMD quoted that around 2.6% of all cats have cardiac arrhythmias, indicating possible structural issues in the heart.These factors highlight the growing need for practical diagnostic tools like veterinary ECG systems. As educational institutions and research studies emphasize the importance of identifying and managing these conditions, the demand for advanced ECG technology will likely rise. This trend will drive growth in the veterinary ECG systems market as practitioners seek reliable methods to monitor and treat cardiac health in pets.
