Report overview
Segments covered: product, end user. Regions: Europe, Asia-Pacific.
Medical carts and workstations are needed to smoothly conduct various procedures in healthcare facilities. These carts & workstations maintain all the essential patient information which can be accessed on time, thus, providing higher quality and greater effectiveness. The factors such as growth in the implementation of EMR/EHR, integration of IT solutions in the healthcare environment, and healthcare organizations efforts to enhance patient care, safety, and staff productivity are the driving the market. However, the complexity of quality standards is restricting the growth of this market to a certain extent.
Since the outbreak of COVID-19 disease, the World Health Organization declared it a public health emergency. COVID-19 disease has affected the global economy mainly in three ways: directly affecting production and demand, creating supply chain and market disruption, and its fiscal impact on firms and financial markets. The unavailability of treatment, rise in cases, limited resources, and vulnerability of the medical staff to catch the virus pushed the healthcare sector is struggling to deal with the pandemic situation.
Governments stepped up to maintain social distancing to deal with this issue. Due to this, patients could not meet their families or doctors to maintain safety. For this, vendors in this market focused on providing telemedicine carts to healthcare facilities. Apart from this, the key players in the medical carts and workstations market are stepping in to address the shortage of hospital equipment and maintain clinical workflow during the COVID-19 pandemic. For instance,
In February 2020, Ergotron, Inc. (U.S.) and Ingram Micro China Ltd. (China) partnered to donate medical carts to aid in the coronavirus outbreak. The carts were provided to Huoshenshan and Leishenshan hospitals' emergency facilities. Twenty-four of the mobile medical carts were transported from the company's facility in Dongguan, southern China, to Wuhan. At the hospitals, the carts were used for telemedicine applications and to aid with processing electronic medical records.
AFC Industries (U.S.) launched COVID-19 products, which include carts such as lightweight storage cart with multiple wire basket shelves, mobile hygiene sanitizing station cart with wire baskets, lightweight tablet cart with remote data entry for COVID-19 quarantine, mobile scanning thermal imaging or infra-red remote cart, mobile iPad tablet cart with ergonomic handle and power cord accessory, mobile tablet cart with ergonomic handle and sanitizing receptacle, and thermal imaging temperature scanning mobile cart with camera tablet combination.
In April 2020, Midwest Products & Engineering (MPE-INC) (U.S.) launched an emergency response cart to solve ventilator workflow issues related to the urgent treatment of COVID-19 patients.
As COVID-19 disease has a specific site of infection, the demand for related carts such as ventilator carts, isolation carts, telemedicine carts, and emergency carts is increasing. However, the growth for other carts is stagnant.
Based on product, mobile computing carts and workstations are estimated to command the largest share of the overall medical carts and workstation market in 2022. The largest market share of this segment is attributed to the rising adoption of computers & information technology in healthcare settings, demand for telemedicine carts due to COVID-19 disease and focus on adopting modern technology that offers better configuration and features to meet requirements for easy clinical workflow.
The Hospitals segment is estimated to command the largest share of the medical carts and workstations market in 2022. Increasing investments in healthcare infrastructure development, the need for efficient patient safety, and initiatives to implement advanced technologies are the key factors driving the growth of this market segment.

Changing Ergonomics and Advanced Designs for Carts and Workstations Resulting in their Increased Adoption
Healthcare professionals such as nurses are more likely to suffer from work-related injuries due to musculoskeletal disorders due to fatiguing tasks, long and hectic shift hours, and pressurized shift work. These skilled caregivers, who already give excess time to their work, nowadays require more time to be spent even on computers. For instance, physicians use computers for an average of 5.1 hours per shift, whereas nurses use computers for an average of 5.8 hours per shift, resulting in as many as 90% of the nurses working with discomfort. This gives rise to the need for ergonomics (the science of improving fitness between tasks and the user to maximize productivity while reducing discomfort, fatigue, and injury).
Modern ergonomic cart designs offer a compact space with no peripheral tools such as a swing-out mouse platform or work surface, which hinder movement; instead, foldable boards are now being provided. When a user walks up to the cart, all tools/accessories are automatically available and immediately ready to use, thus improving the efficiency of care. Mobile technology carts have integrated technology at the point of care, supporting caregivers' highly mobile workflow. A computer mounted on a wall station allows the caregiver to sit or stand beside the patient while using it. This option also allows the patient to view the screen while the caregiver explains their health and needs. It can be extended and moved to the patient by mounting the computer, which is more feasible than forcing the patient to move to the equipment.
Purpose-driven designs that support constant cleanings are expected to come. Soon, some advanced medical carts will offer optional UV Angel technology that can reduce bacteria on surfaces by 99%. Effortless operation of the carts with gaze-activated control is beneficial when the user wants to operate the cart wearing gloves. In addition, with eye-tracking technology, people with speech or movement disabilities can also operate medical carts easily. The autofit technology in point of care carts only asks for the height and the preference to sit or stand by the operator. The carts can automatically adjust in seconds to a user's dimensions based on that information.
Thus, the preference for advanced designs and automation in carts/workstations to improve the efficiency of the healthcare environment creates numerous opportunities in this market.
