Global Infant Sleep Monitoring Market

Infant Sleep Monitoring Market Insights

With a CAGR value of 9.5%, the market for infant sleep monitoring will foresee a positive rise from 2020 to 2026. Home-based baby or infant monitors help track the breathing pattern, vital signs such as heart rate & pressure, and baby movement when the attendants are away. An alert goes off if an infant's breathing stops quickly (apnea) or if the pulse is surprisingly moderate. This data is then transferred to the designated app (connected via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi) which helps analyze the status of the infant sleeping. The market has witnessed the launch of various types of monitors that can be worn or can be placed near the baby’s bed. Wearable monitors can be cloth attached to the baby’s attire, monitoring patch, baby socks, and baby sheet. A non-wearable monitor is simply a camera to provide video data on the condition of the baby sleeping. The market has advanced its product offering from only baby breathing monitor to baby movement and baby vital sign monitors.
