Additionally, the increasing awareness regarding preventive medical equipment maintenance will boost the North American ISOs medical device and equipment maintenance and calibration services market in the future. Medical devices, such as ultrasound systems, X-ray systems, and endoscopes, are used in several clinical applications. These systems require proper and constant maintenance to increase their lifespan. In addition, maintenance and calibration aid in preventing infections due to the usage of such devices on multiple patients. To avoid any unprecedented situation, healthcare facilities are increasingly focusing on the cleanliness of medical equipment and devices.
The automation segment of the North American ISOs medical device and equipment maintenance and calibration services market is bifurcated into automated devices and manual devices. Of these, the automated devices category accounted for the larger market share in 2019, and it is expected to hold its dominance in the forecast years. This can be attributed to the amplifying financial support from the government for medical automation, increasing technological innovations in automation solutions, and fueling need for the accuracy and reproducibility of medical devices and equipment.
Therefore, with the strict government regulations and growing awareness regarding preventive medical equipment maintenance, the market will boom at a high rate in the coming years.
