Global Automated External Defibrillator Market Driven by Technological Advancements and Rising Cardiovascular Disease Prevalence

Mordor Intelligence has published a new report on the Automated External Defibrillator Market, offering a comprehensive analysis of trends, growth drivers, and future projections.  

The Automated External Defibrillator Market is projected to grow from USD 1.73 billion in 2025 to USD 2.56 billion by 2030, registering a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.14% over the forecast period (2025-2030). The market is driven by several factors, including the increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), rising awareness of cardiac arrest and associated complications, and advancements in automated external defibrillator technology.

Key Trends Driving Market Growth

1. Technological Advancements in AEDsManufacturers are focusing on producing lightweight, compact, and portable AEDs to enhance usability and accessibility. For instance, in January 2023, Avive Solutions, Inc. received United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) pre-market approval for its Avive AED, a unique handheld automated external defibrillator.
2. Rising Prevalence of Cardiovascular DiseasesThe increasing incidence of CVDs, particularly coronary artery disease, heightens the risk of heart attacks and sudden cardiac arrest. According to the British Heart Foundation’s ‘Global Heart & Circulatory Diseases Factsheet’ published in January 2024, coronary (ischemic) heart disease was the most common heart condition affecting the population in the United Kingdom, with 1.1 million people in England affected by various heart diseases in 2023.
3. Increased Awareness and AccessibilityPublic education campaigns and government initiatives promoting the importance of AEDs have led to widespread installation in public spaces and workplaces. Collaborations, such as the partnership between the Sonoma Valley Fire District and the Just1Mike Foundation in March 2024, have resulted in the installation of additional state-of-the-art AEDs across Sonoma, including at Sonoma Plaza, Maxwell Park, and St. Leo’s Catholic Church.

Market Segmentation

The automated external defibrillator market is segmented based on analysis type, end user, and geography:

• By Analysis Type:
  • Semi-Automated External Defibrillators: Require the user to initiate the shock delivery after the device analyzes the heart rhythm.
  • Fully Automated External Defibrillators: Automatically deliver a shock when needed without the rescuer having to press a button. Fully automated AEDs are designed to be user-friendly, with no need for the user to manually analyze the heart rhythm or deliver the shock. The device automatically detects the heart’s rhythm and, if necessary, delivers a shock, making them especially appealing in public spaces and workplaces where the user may not have medical training.
• By End User:
  • Hospitals/Clinics: Primary healthcare settings equipped with AEDs for immediate response to cardiac emergencies.
  • Home Care: Individuals with a high risk of cardiac arrest may keep AEDs at home for emergency use.
  • Other End Users: Includes public spaces, workplaces, schools, and sports venues where AEDs are installed for community safety.
• By Geography:
  • North America: Currently holds the largest market share, driven by advanced healthcare infrastructure, high prevalence of cardiovascular diseases, and supportive regulatory frameworks. The American Heart Association (AHA) and American Red Cross promote the installation of AEDs in public spaces and encourage training in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and defibrillation, further increasing awareness and adoption.
  • Europe: Significant growth due to supportive healthcare policies, increasing adoption of advanced diagnostic tools, and rising public awareness of cardiac health.
  • Asia-Pacific: Expected to witness the fastest growth, attributed to rising healthcare investments, increasing awareness of cardiovascular health, and government initiatives to improve emergency medical services.
  • Middle East & Africa: Gradual growth with improving healthcare facilities, increasing focus on non-communicable diseases, and efforts to enhance public access to defibrillation.
  • South America: Emerging market with potential growth opportunities due to increasing healthcare access, economic development, and initiatives to address the burden of cardiovascular diseases.
