Key findings of the report include:
- Oxygen source equipment to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period
- The oxygen therapy equipment market is classified on the basis of products into oxygen source equipment and oxygen delivery devices.
- The oxygen source equipment segment is expected to grow at a higher rate during the forecast period. This is attributed to the industry players developing innovative products which are small, quiet, and effective leading to higher acceptance from consumers.
