Healthcare RTLS Market – Global Industry Analysis, Trends by 2031

July 18, 2021

RTLS, also known as real-time location systems have become an essential component of many existing universal location-aware systems. It is used to provide real-time tracking and management of patients, staff, and medical equipment in a hospital.
Global Positioning System (GPS) is fairly successful as an outdoor real-time locating system, but it fails indoors in tracking real-time location, and so RTLS technology is used as an indoor tracking system.
Healthcare RTLS consists of specialized fixed receiver or location sensors (reader), receiving a wireless signal from small ID tags; the tags are attached to the object, to determine where the tag entities are located within an outdoor or indoor space
The healthcare RTLS market is projected to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period, due to advancement in technologies and increasing adoption of real-time location tracking system in healthcare systems across the globe.

Healthcare RTLS Market: Key Drivers

Healthcare RTLS is used to develop the workflow and enhance hospital management. In RTLS, hardware and software are used to track the data. Hardware components such as sensors, readers, RFID tags, and trackers are used in the system.
In healthcare RTLS, a tag is provided to the patient or object that can to be tracked by the authorize person on his monitor/screen on the receiving site. The link between the patient/asset is established using various technologies such as Bluetooth Low Energy, RFID, and Wi-Fi, besides others.
Zigbee is an important technology because it provides communication between a reader and a tag with much accuracy and at a lower rate. Healthcare RTLS also monitors staff location and environmental conditions accurately.
Technological advancement in healthcare RTLS such as the development of hardware components and software interface is expected to create demand for healthcare RTLS during the forecast period.
However, high capital investment for healthcare RTLS is expected to hamper the market during the forecast period.
