Growth Prospects for Patient Lateral Transfer Devices Market
Healthcare workers and caregivers are susceptible to back injuries and suffer from pain while moving, lifting, and transferring patients from one surface to another. Hence, lateral transfer devices are recommended to reduce friction and avoid musculoskeletal injuries while transferring patients. Transfer assist devices can lower the force exerted by caregivers and improve their posture while transferring partially or totally dependent patients. The demand for lateral transfer devices has increased in the recent years due to rising incidence of musculoskeletal disorders such as lower back pain (LBP) in healthcare workers. According to an article published in the Medicine Science International Medical Journal in 2018, approximately 79.5% of nurses suffer from musculoskeletal disorders in Turkey. Hence, such high prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders in healthcare workers is expected to propel growth of the patient lateral transfer devices market.

Increasing incidence of musculoskeletal disorders such as lower back pain (LBP) in healthcare workers is anticipated to propel the market growth over the forecast period. According to an article published in the Medicine Science International Medical Journal in 2018, the prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders in nurse may vary from between 33.0% to 88.0% globally. The prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders in nurses is approximately 84.0% in Estonia.
Moreover, Market players are focusing on various inorganic growth strategies such as agreements and partnerships in order strengthen their market presence which is expected to drive growth of the global patient lateral transfer devices market over the forecast period. For instance, in March 2017, Sizewise—a manufacturer of bariatric and non-bariatric medical equipment including bed frames, therapeutic mattresses, and mobility items—entered in a distribution partnership with HoverTech International—a company focused on air-assisted patient handling technologies. Through this agreement, Sizewise obtained the rights to distribute Long Term Care (LTC) products of HoverTech. The Long Term Care (LTC) of HoverTech reduces the risk of musculoskeletal injuries to caregivers while transferring and repositioning of patients.
Major players operating in the global patient lateral transfer devices market include Stryker Corporation, Getinge AB, Airpal, Inc., Hovertech International, Hill-Rom Holdings, Inc., Sizewise, Patient Positioning System LLC, Medline Industries, Inc., EZ Way, Inc., McAuley Medical, Inc, Air-Matt, Inc., Blue Chip Medical Products, Inc., Scan Medical, and Samarit Medical AG.
