The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the home medical devices market is positive. Among all European countries, Spain, Italy, Germany, France, and the UK are the most affected due to the increasing number of coronavirus cases and deaths associated with it. As per the Worldometer as of March 22, 2021, in Spain, Italy, Germany, France, the UK, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg, the number of cases was 3,183,704, 3,223,142; 2,578,835; 4,071,662; 4,258,438; 1,157,192; 808,283; and 57,877 respectively; and the number of deaths was also high. Owing to the increasing number of cases, the regional governments announced movement restrictions and lockdowns in countries. However, the demand for medical devices has been increasing. According to the Medical Device Coordination Group (MDCG), during the COVID-19 pandemic, the demand for ventilators and related accessories such as nebulizers, humidifiers and filters, monitoring accessories, including alarms and in-built safety features has rapidly increased in Europe. Additionally, the World Health Organization (WHO) urged the global community to prepare for caring for patients by stocking up on ventilators. For instance, in the UK, where the number of infected has increased to 40, thus the number of home ventilation kits is being expanded. Many researchers are taking initiative to meet the growing demand. For instance, a team of researchers and technicians from the Philipps University of Marburg and the University Hospital Gießen and Marburg (UKGM), Germany established two different concepts for simple ventilators in a very short time, due to fears that ventilation capacities might not be sufficient during the COVID-19 pandemic.
