According to ABI Research, shipments of smart home healthcare devices are projected to grow from 124 million units in 2026 to 170 million units by 2030, representing a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 8.1%. Key device categories driving this growth include connected Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGMs), digital scales, Personal Emergency Response Systems (PERS) devices, baby monitors, and blood pressure monitors. The main factors cited are rapidly aging populations, growing prevalence of chronic diseases, increasing healthcare costs, and improved network infrastructure.
“Demand for better disease management and remote in-home monitoring solutions is driving interest in connected healthcare solutions,” said Matthias Foo, Principal Analyst at ABI Research. “The ability of these healthcare devices to work seamlessly with mobile applications on smartphones allows both patients and healthcare providers to easily track and monitor their health statuses, thereby improving the convenience and accuracy of data collection and analysis.”
Recent financial results from major vendors align with this trend. ResMed reported 10% year-on-year revenue growth in 2025 for its connected sleep health solutions. Dexcom reported 16% year-on-year revenue growth for its full-year 2025 results in the CGM segment. Abbott Laboratories reported over 10% year-on-year revenue growth in its Medical Devices business unit.
Bluetooth remains the predominant connectivity technology for these devices, as it enables easy pairing with smartphones and supports longer battery life compared to Wi-Fi. Bluetooth Channel Sounding (CS) is noted as an emerging feature for accurate positioning, which can support tracking of patient movements in wearable healthcare devices.
Cellular-based solutions are also gaining momentum. In April 2025, Medical Guardian introduced a new line of cellular-enabled Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) devices, including blood pressure cuffs, pulse oximeters, and weight scales. These devices operate without reliance on Wi-Fi or smartphones and are integrated into the company’s MGEngage360 health monitoring platform for continuous monitoring and chronic disease management.
The findings are contained in ABI Research’s Smart Home Healthcare market data report, part of its Smart Living & Consumer Technologies research service. The report includes detailed forecasts, market share analysis, and insights into key smart home healthcare device trends.
