According to a research report published by Spherical Insights & Consulting, the South Korea ECG Electrodes Market Size is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 7.1% from 2025 to 2035. The market is driven by rising cardiovascular disease cases and increased demand for accurate cardiac monitoring solutions and advancements in electrode materials and the growth of outpatient and home healthcare services further support market expansion.

Market Overview

South Korea ECG electrodes market is expanding continuously due to the growing incidence of cardiovascular diseases, growing population, and rising demand for non-invasive diagnostic equipment. ECG electrodes are crucial products that help record heart electrical signals, making early detection and real-time monitoring possible of heart diseases. Hospitals control the market with their massive patient population and strong dependence on ECG tests. But home and clinic use also is growing with the help of telemedicine and wearable technology. The market has two dominant types of electrodes: solid-gel and liquid. Liquid electrodes provide more accurate signal, whereas solid-gel types are used due to ease of handling, comfort against the skin, and extended monitoring. Advances in technology like greater adhesion, skin-friendly materials, and wire-free compatibility are driving product development. While regulatory and cost issues are a challenge, overall the trend is upbeat with the sophistication of healthcare digitalization, preventive screening activities, and increased investment in cardiac care facilities.
