Research and Markets: Global Facial Interfaces Market 2015-2019 - High Prevalence of Sleep Apnea


Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/kpsp2b/global_facial) has announced the addition of the "Global Facial Interfaces Market 2015-2019" report to their offering.

The Global Facial Interfaces market to grow at a CAGR of 6.8% over the period 2014-2019

Facial interface devices help in treatment using non-invasive ventilation and CPAP therapy. Nasal masks are commonly used for patients suffering from OSA. OSA arises when the soft tissues in the back of the throat relax during sleep and block the airway, causing snoring. Facial interface devices include all types of masks (nasal pillow masks, nasal masks, oral masks, and full-face masks) and humidifiers that provide airflow into the nose or mouth from the CPAP machine.

One major trend upcoming in this market is the increase in adoption of home diagnostics for diagnosis of sleep apnea for convenience. The devices used in home care treatment are accurate in cases of moderate-to-severe apnea. Home testing is also less obtrusive because it is done in the patient's familiar surroundings.

According to the report, the high prvalence of sleep apnea among adults and children contributes to the growth of the market. Associated conditions such as hypertension, stroke, type II diabetes or adult onset diabetes, weight gain, impotence, and cardiovascular diseases also contribute to the growth of the market.



Further, the report states that one of the major challenges in the market is the lack of patient compliance. Discomfort coupled with nosebleeds, anxiety, appliance leaking, claustrophobia, and nasal stuffiness contributes to non-compliance when using CPAP or BiPAP devices.
