Neonatal Intensive Care Market Dynamics:

Rise in premature births accelerates the market growth

According to recent statistical data, around 11% of the total pregnancies result in premature or early deliveries. In the U.S. alone around 450,000 babies are born prematurely and globally over 15 million new births are early or premature. Increasing rates of maternal obesity, advanced maternal ages, diabetes, multiple births (twins and higher), assisted reproductive techniques, and opiate addiction is the reasons for preterm birth. Hence, this leads to the expansion of pediatric clinics and neonatal intensive care units globally. Rising awareness about neonatal care and technological advancements being made for neonatal care devices also contribute to the market growth.
