expected to boost growth in this sector. These injuries are avoidable by
practicing safe patient handling guidelines and using equipment for the same.

improved products such as prime Transport Chairs (TC), temperature management
systems, and patient transfer solutions, which offer safe, comfortable, and
dignified transfer are the factors anticipated to provide lucrative growth to
this sector in the near future.

Diseases (NCD), such as diabetes, asthma, cancer, stroke, etc., requiring
patient handling equipment in homecare settings, hospitals, and intensive care
units are further expected to boost market growth over the forecast period.
