Among the products covered in this report, in 2024, the hearing aid devices segment is expected to account for the larger share of the market. This segment’s large market share can be attributed to the increasing incidences of hearing loss and the benefits offered by hearing aid devices, such as improved listening, reduced interference from background noises, and enhanced communication among patients. Furthermore, the increasing availability of technologically advanced hearing aid devices contributes to the growth of this segment. For instance, in September 2023, Beltone Care Corporation (U.S.) launched its Beltone Serene hearing aid. The device comprises two non-rechargeable receiver-in-ear (RIE) styles and a microRIE, a compact rechargeable hearing aid. This device is beneficial for individuals experiencing mild to severe hearing loss.

Among the technologies covered in this report, in 2024, the digital hearing aids segment is expected to account for the larger share of the market. Digital hearing aids convert sound waves into digital signals, replicating the environmental sounds precisely. Various features and benefits drive their adoption over analog alternatives. Digital hearing aids offer customizable settings, connectivity to other devices, and noise-reduction capabilities. These benefits contribute to the large market share of this segment.

Among the age groups covered in this report, the children segment is projected to register a higher CAGR during the forecast period. This segment’s large market share can be attributed to the rising prevalence of hearing loss in newborns, the availability of hearing aids tailored for children, growing awareness about newborn hearing screening, and government initiatives for newborn screening. For instance, the Minnesota Department of Health (U.S.) has implemented state laws mandating newborn hearing screening in the NICU and offering options for out-of-hospital screening.

Among the types covered in this report, in 2024, the prescription hearing aids segment is expected to account for the larger share of the market. Prescription hearing aids are recommended for patients with mild to severe hearing loss, typically following a hearing examination conducted by audiologists or ENT specialists. The prescription is tailored to the individual's degree of hearing impairment. This segment’s large market share can be attributed to factors such as insurance coverage for prescription hearing aids and advances in hearing aid technologies.

Among the sales channels covered in this report, in 2024, the ENT clinics segment is expected to account for the largest share of the market. ENT clinics serve as the primary point of contact for patients experiencing hearing difficulties. Equipped with trained audiologists, these clinics conduct thorough hearing assessments to diagnose the type and extent of hearing loss. ENT specialists then prescribe and fit hearing aids tailored to each patient's individual needs. ENT clinics play a crucial role in the prescription, fitting, and distribution of hearing aids, making them the largest prescribers and distributors of hearing aids. These factors contribute to the large market share of this segment.

Among the regions covered in this report, the market in Asia-Pacific is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The growth of this regional market is driven by factors such as improving healthcare infrastructure, rising disposable incomes, increasing investments by major market players, and increasing initiatives for hearing screening across the region. For instance, The Western Australia (WA) Newborn Hearing Program, introduced by the Government of Western Australia and Perth Children’s Hospital (Australia), provides free hearing screening for all babies born at public, private, metropolitan, and regional maternity services across Western Australia.
