The global market for blood flow measurement devices expected to reach $1.1 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 9.3% over the forecast period, driven by increasing prevalence and incidence of peripheral vascular disorders, growing elderly population, and higher preference for minimal invasive and technologically advanced products.

Blood flow is the continuous running of blood in the cardiovascular system. Blood flow meters are used to monitor the blood flow in various blood vessels and to measure cardiac output.
The most commonly employed techniques for the in vivo measurement of arterial blood flow to individual organs involve the use of flow probes or sensors. Commercially available systems for the measurement of in vivo blood flow can be divided into two categories: ultrasonic and electromagnetic. Two types of ultrasonic probes are used. The first type of flow probe measures blood flow-mediated Doppler shifts (Doppler flowmetry) in a vessel. The second type of flow probe measures the “transit time” required by an emitted ultrasound wave to traverse the vessel and are transit-time volume flow sensors.
- Electromagnetic blood flow meters are a noninvasive option for measuring blood flow. They are also one of the most reliable blood flow measurement techniques.
- Laser Doppler flow meter is used for blood flow monitoring in peripheral vascular disorders, cerebral perfusion monitoring in models of stroke and brain injury, tumor perfusion monitoring, angiogenesis and blood flow (free flaps, pedicle flaps, wound healing, gastroenterology).
- Ultrasonic Doppler meter use sound waves to determine the velocity of a blood flowing in blood vessels. The ultrasonic flow-velocity meter for blood flow measurement has developed in two directions. The first type is the transit-time velocity meter, and the second, the Doppler-shift type.
The global blood flow measurement devices market report provides market size estimates ($million 2019 to 2029), market share, growth trends and forecast (CAGR% 2023 to 2029).
The market for blood flow measurement devices segmented by product (electromagnetic blood flow meter, laser Doppler blood flowmeter, ultrasonic Doppler blood flow meter), application (dermatology, diabetes, gastroenterology, intracranial monitoring in stroke and brain injury, peripheral vascular diseases, tumor monitoring and angiogenesis, others), and geography.
- Based on the products, the ultrasonic Doppler blood flow meters segment accounted for the largest share of the total blood flow meter devices market, and also anticipated to expand at the fastest double-digit rate in the coming years.
- The ultrasonic Doppler blood flowmetry is a noninvasive diagnostic procedure uses ultrasound scanner to convert sound waves in to images of blood flow in tissues of the patients.
- The ultrasound waves have found large number of applications in various fields of medicine, which includes medical imaging, intensive treatment, internal medicine, angiology, neurosurgery and cardio vascular surgery.
- Cardiac applications include the evaluation of myocardial infarction, diagnosis of heart valve defects and congenital cardiac defects as well as identification of blocked arteries.
- The vascular applications for these include evaluation of blood flow in abdominal arteries, stroke patients and assessment of vascular flow in legs, arms and neck.
- Cardiac applications include the evaluation of myocardial infarction, diagnosis of heart valve defects and congenital cardiac defects as well as identification of blocked arteries.
- In terms of applications, the peripheral vascular diseases segment dominated the global blood flow meter devices market, and also expected to grow at the fastest double-digit rate throughout the forecast period.
- Ultrasonic Doppler blood flowmeters are prominently used for vascular assessment of these diseases with high frequency sound waves and a computer to create image of blood flow in vessels.
- Doppler ultrasound has become one of the most important imaging modalities for measuring hemodynamic changes in various clinical settings.
- The accuracy of these measurements is the preconditioning to the appropriate interpreting of clinical observations and to the reasonable therapeutic strategy-makings.
- Factors contributing the growth of this segment include increasing incidence of obese population and higher demand for these devices for the measurement of vascular blood flow.
The global market for blood flow measurement devices research report is further divided by geography into North America (U.S., Canada), Europe (U.K., Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Rest of EU), Asia Pacific (Japan, China, India, Rest of APAC), Latin America (Brazil, Mexico, Rest of LA), and Rest of the World.
- Geographically, the North America region held the largest market share of the global blood flow measurement devices, followed by the Europe region. However, by the end of forecast period, the Asia Pacific region expected to overtake Europe region due to the fastest double-digit growth rate in the near future.
- For example, According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) approximately 8 million people in the United States have peripheral arterial disease (PAD), including 12–20% of individuals older than age 60.
- In the US, more than 8 million people age 40 and old have PAD, where approximately 50% of patients are asymptomatic.
- The population-based studies, using noninvasive diagnostic tools, suggest a progressive increase in prevalence in patients older than 40 years of age, and an association with cardiovascular risk factors such as smoking, diabetes, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia and impaired kidney function.
- Similarly, according to International Diabetes Federation (IDF) in the year 2013, approximately 72,000,000 people of the South- East Asian region have been diagnosed with diabetes and half of the population with diabetes are undiagnosed.
