New analysis from Frost & Sullivan US & European Market for Sleep Disorder Diagnostic Devices finds that the market earned revenue of $95.6 million in 2013 and estimates this to reach $125.8 million in 2017. The diagnostic devices covered in this research include clinical polysymnogram (PSG) and ambulatory PSG systems. Information technology is playing an increasingly important role in the transformation of the sleep disorder treatment market. Disruptive technologies that are patient friendly, easy to operate and safe are finding considerable uptake among elderly patients considering their interest in alternatives to medications and traditional sleep disorder tests. "There is a growing demand for devices that offer integration and connectivity in sleep centres and home settings," said Frost & Sullivan Healthcare Research Analyst Akanksha Joshi.
