Among all these, fall prevention and detection application led the smart home healthcare market in 2017 with 39.0% revenue contribution and is expected to advance in the future at a CAGR of 39.8%. This is majorly attributed to the elderly, who are more prone to falling down and not being able to get back up on their own on account of their diminished physical strength. As per a 2018 article published by the World Health Organization (WHO), falls are one of the leading causes of deaths due to unintentional injuries.

The advent of the mHealth technology is helping significantly in this regard, as those being taken care of at their home need not always visit healthcare centers. With mHealth, all the medical data, such as pathology and radiology results, and medication schedule can be shared with the doctors via mobile devices, laptops, and personal computers. Thus, in the process of establishing remote communication, mHealth helps in reducing the healthcare expenditure, which is why the demand for such technologies is increasing.

Further, it is being estimated that by 20500end, the elderly across the world would number 2.1 billion. With the growing geriatric population, the demand for personalized care at their home is predicted to increase, taking the smart home healthcare market ahead during the forecast period.
