Technavio Announces Top Seven Vendors in the Global Neurophysiology Needles and Electrodes Market from 2016 to 2020


Technavio has announced the top seven leading vendors in their recent global neurophysiology needles and electrodes market report until 2020. This research report also lists 12 other prominent vendors that are expected to impact the market during the forecast period. To calculate the market size, Technavio analysts use the revenue generated from the sales of neurophysiology needles and electrodes used for diagnostic and therapeutic services.

Competitive vendor landscape

According to the report, the global neurophysiology needles and electrodes market is highly consolidated with the presence of few leading companies that offer similar products across the world. In 2015, Natus Medical, Ambu, and Rhythmlink were the leading contributors to the market. These vendors are losing their market shares to medium- and small-sized vendors that offer similar products at low costs. The number of local vendors that offer neurophysiology needles and electrodes is increasing in APAC, particularly in China, Japan, and India.

"Vendors implement various strategies such as competitive product pricing to gain market shares. They extensively invest in R&D to develop novel products such as dry electrodes. They are also developing new neurophysiology needles and electrodes enabled with advanced technologies to offer better patient comfort and improve electrode-body interface for quality recording and stimulation," says Barath Palada, a lead patient monitoring devices research analyst from Technavio.
