Femtosecond laser belongs to the category of ultrafast and ultrashort lasers. A femtosecond laser releases optical pulses every 10-15 seconds. The generation of short pulses is achieved using the passive mode-locking technique, which is used for generating pulses of light in extremely short duration (picosecond or femtosecond durations). The popularity of femtosecond lasers is rising among ophthalmologists as these devices help in simplifying and avoiding complex processes of open surgeries. The femtosecond laser uses ultrashort infrared laser pulses that are applied predictably and precisely with minimal collateral tissue damage to make it an ideal laser for highly precise ophthalmic surgeries.

MRSA has been a major cause of concern due to the long-term use of antibiotics, which is now deemed as unnecessary. The inappropriate use of antibiotics may contribute to the rise in drug-resistant bacteria because they do not destroy the bacteria completely. This has been one of the major factors influencing the use of MRSA testing in the medical industry. With this, there is focus on the development of rapid MRSA testing products with greater sensitivity for detection.

A breath analyzer is a device, which is commonly used for estimating blood alcohol content (BAC) from a breath sample. Connected breath analyzers are connected to smart devices such as smartphones, tablets, or smart watches, which measure the BAC through an app. Breath analyzers do not measure BAC or concentration directly. Instead, these devices estimate BAC by measuring the amount of alcohol present in one's breath.

Atopic dermatitis is a common, chronic, relapsing, inflammatory disease that primarily affects young children. Atopy refers to an inherited tendency to produce IgE antibodies, whereas, dermatitis means inflammation of the skin. Atopic dermatitis is associated with asthma, inhalant allergies (hay fever), and chronic dermatitis. In this condition, the skin becomes extremely itchy and inflamed, which causes redness, cracking, weeping, swelling, vesicle formation, crushing, and scaling. Atopic dermatitis is very common worldwide, and its prevalence rate is increasing. The data estimates suggest that nearly 60% of the patients develop symptoms in the first year of life, and 88%-92% develop symptoms before the age of five.

A surgical microscope is an electrically or mechanically operated optical device, specifically intended for use in surgical settings to perform a wide range of surgeries related to applications, such as dentistry, ENT, neurology, ophthalmology, and plastic and reconstructive surgery with a significantly high amount of precision during the procedure.

Spectroscopy is used to ascertain the structure, mass, and composition of the substance under consideration and provide an accurate analysis for the same. Generally, spectroscopy is divided into two segments namely, atomic and molecular spectroscopy. Molecular spectroscopy is an analytical technology used for measuring the spectrum response of molecules interacting with several energies and frequencies.

Sacral nerve stimulation (SNS) is a medical electrical stimulation therapy that is used to treat long-term bowel control and bladder control symptoms through the modulation of nerves controlling the lower urinary tract and pelvic floor.

The ENT endoscopes market is driven by the new-generation flexible video scopes. These are less traumatic and provide improved visualization for the surgeons. The increasing cases of sinusitis, ear infections, and sleep disorders are driving the growth of the ENT endoscopes market. Obesity and older adult population contribute to the increasing use of these devices. Surgeries related to the head and neck region that are inaccessible for surgeries are expected to increase over the forecast period. These surgeries include transnasal endoscopic pituitary gland surgery, tumor resection, and complex ear surgery. However, the preference for non-invasive procedures such as Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and other imaging technologies challenge the market growth for ENT endoscopes. Olympus is the leading manufacturer of these devices followed by Karl Storz and Arthrex.
