GCC Mobile ECG Device Market to Surge at 16.29% CAGR to Hit USD211.29 Million Mark by 2030

The GCC Mobile ECG Device Market size was valued at around USD76.98 million in 2024 and is projected to reach USD211.29 million by 2030. Along with this, the market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of around 16.29% during the forecast period, i.e., 2025-30, cites MarkNtel Advisors in the recent research report. In the Gulf countries, the number of cases of aging-related diseases and the high prevalence of cardiac disorders are the main factors driving the demand for mobile ECG devices. The Middle East is at risk of an aging population as more and more people there show symptoms of common diseases connected to their lifestyle. Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in the region, accounting for 45 percent of all deaths, as reported by the WHO. Along with diabetes and obesity, smoking is one of the main causes of CVDs. Diabetes, which is known to always have an impact on cardiovascular health affects more than 18 percent of Saudi Arabia's population.

Also, as per WHO, tobacco use is almost 3% higher in the ESR, which includes the Gulf countries, than the global average. The trend of young people between the ages of 13 and 15 being more likely to start smoking has also increased in GCC countries like Oman, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia, among others, indicating that the crisis of lifestyle diseases has been getting worse. A useful tool for real-time cardiac monitoring, abnormality detection, and intervention in this context is the mobile electrocardiogram. Authorities in the region have also boosted their funding for telemedicine and mobile care to lower the elevated costs of healthcare while enhancing patient results. For example, the Saudi Vision 2030 features initiatives that promote improvements in healthcare technology to successfully tackle chronic diseases.

To enhance public health, the Ministry of Health and Prevention is deploying wearable and mobile technologies for the early detection of CVDs. Mobile ECG device adoption is increasing due to the rise of health-tech innovations, supportive government policies, and increased awareness of heart health. These gadgets address the cardiovascular health crisis in the GCC by providing a scalable solution for both disease management and preventive care, further states the research report, “GCC Mobile ECG Device Market Analysis, 2025.”

GCC Mobile ECG Device Market Segmentation Analysis

Handheld ECG Monitors Hold the Largest Market Share

Based on device type, the market is bifurcated into Handheld ECG Monitors, Wearable ECG Devices, Band ECG Monitors, and Others. The Handheld ECG Monitors hold a higher share, around 31.2% of the GCC mobile ECG device industry. This gadget offers a useful solution for patients and medical professionals alike, with features that are easy to use and still maintain the precision required for ECG monitoring. Portable mobile ECG devices are regularly adaptable and bendy in several healthcare settings due to their sophisticated features, which include wi-fi connectivity and consumer-friendly interfaces. They are accessible to a huge spectrum of customers because of their ergonomic layout and simplicity of use, which facilitates explaining their increasing reputation. However, it is expected that other wearables like ECG patches and smart bands will grow drastically. Continuous coronary heart health monitoring using wearable technology is becoming more and more popular as consumers use it for health tracking.

Saudi Arabia Leads the GCC Mobile ECG Device Industry

Saudi Arabia holds the biggest share in the mobile ECG device industry, around 30%, driven by the kingdom's extensive investments in healthcare as a part of its Vision 2030 strategy. With the help of revolutionary technologies like telemedicine and mobile health apps, this country is pursuing to completely transform healthcare through a digital way. In underserved and rural regions, where there's a growing demand for mobile ECG gadgets, these modern healthcare applications are seeking to expand in the market. Saudi Arabia's large populace and the upward push in persistent illnesses, specifically cardiovascular issues, are contributing elements to the demand for mobile ECG devices.

The authorities' aid of virtual health solutions is dashing up this adoption. The Saudi Ministry of Health has dedicated itself to improving healthcare services through smart technology, introducing remote monitoring tools, and improving accessibility to healthcare. For instance, in 2023, more than 35% of scientific consultations were carried out remotely, largely due to wearable technology like portable ECG video display units. Although other nations like the United Arab Emirates and Qatar also show a high demand for those devices due to their sophisticated healthcare systems and tech-savvy populations, Saudi Arabia leads the market because of its large population and government-pushed healthcare initiatives.
