List of Tables

The Medical Alert Systems Market was valued at USD 8.35 billion in 2023, expected to reach USD 9.23 billion in 2024, and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 10.71%, to USD 17.04 billion by 2030.

Medical Alert Systems (MAS) are critical devices designed to offer timely emergency assistance to individuals, primarily the elderly, who may require urgent medical help. These systems are vital for enhancing independent living and ensuring safety by connecting users with emergency services or caregivers. Typically, they include wearable devices that can trigger alerts when activated or automatically in case of falls. MAS's necessity stems from the rising aging population, increased awareness of personal health management, and the growing prevalence of chronic illnesses and disabilities. Applications extend beyond elderly care to include individuals with medical conditions, people recovering from surgeries, and those living alone. Key end-users comprise healthcare facilities, assisted living centers, and individual consumers.
