Cardiac Mapping Devices Market – Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Opportunity, and Forecast, 2021-2031

Dublin, Jan. 23, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The “Cardiac Mapping Devices Market – Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Opportunity, and Forecast, 2021-2031” has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

The Global Cardiac Mapping Devices Market is projected to expand from USD 2.99 Billion in 2025 to USD 5.69 Billion by 2031, registering a CAGR of 11.32%.

These diagnostic instruments are essential in electrophysiology procedures, utilizing catheter-based sensors to capture and analyze the heart’s electrical signals. By generating precise three-dimensional models of cardiac chambers, these systems allow physicians to accurately identify the anatomical sources of complex arrhythmias, such as atrial fibrillation. The real-time electrical data provided by these tools is critical for guiding ablation catheters to the specific tissues responsible for irregular heartbeats, thereby enhancing treatment efficacy and improving patient outcomes in cardiac care.

Market growth is largely fueled by the rising global burden of cardiovascular diseases and an aging population that is increasingly prone to rhythm disorders. This demand is further supported by a clinical shift toward minimally invasive ablation techniques, which rely on precise navigational capabilities. According to the European Society of Cardiology, projections for 2025 indicate that one in three individuals worldwide will face a potentially life-threatening heart rhythm disorder during their lifetime. However, despite this urgent clinical need, the market encounters significant obstacles due to the high costs associated with acquiring and maintaining these systems, which restricts their accessibility in developing healthcare infrastructures with limited financial resources.

Market Drivers

The increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases and arrhythmias serves as a primary catalyst for market momentum. As the incidence of complex rhythm disorders like atrial fibrillation rises, there is a critical need for advanced mapping systems to facilitate curative ablation procedures. This epidemiological burden results in higher procedural volumes and a growing demand for accurate diagnostic tools.

The American Heart Association’s “2024 Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics” report indicates that cardiovascular disease continues to be the leading cause of global mortality, claiming approximately 19.91 million lives annually. Furthermore, the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute estimated in 2024 that at least 10.55 million American adults are expected to suffer from atrial fibrillation, a figure three times higher than previous predictions.

Concurrently, the market is propelled by technological breakthroughs in 3D electro-anatomical mapping and the integration of artificial intelligence. Industry leaders are rapidly deploying high-density multi-electrode catheters and AI-driven software that automate the detection of arrhythmogenic substrates, thereby improving procedural efficiency.

These innovations directly address the clinical demand for precision in complex electrophysiology cases. The strong commercial adoption of these next-generation technologies is evident; for instance, Abbott reported in their October 2024 results that Electrophysiology sales grew by 14.3 percent on an organic basis, a performance driven specifically by double-digit growth in cardiac mapping products, confirming the industry’s shift toward sophisticated, tech-enabled diagnostic solutions.

Market Challenges

The substantial financial investment required to purchase and sustain cardiac mapping systems constitutes a major restraint on market progression. Healthcare facilities, particularly those in developing regions, often find the initial capital expenditure prohibitive. This barrier is compounded by recurring expenses for specialized catheters and technical maintenance, which significantly increases the total cost of ownership. Consequently, hospitals with limited funding often postpone technology upgrades or rely on conventional methods, directly limiting the installed base of mapping units and reducing potential revenue streams for manufacturers in these territories.

This economic constraint creates a distinct gap between clinical necessity and actual technology adoption. While the patient population requiring arrhythmia management is expanding, the financial rigidity of healthcare budgets limits the penetration of these devices. According to the World Heart Federation, cardiovascular diseases caused approximately 20.5 million deaths globally in 2024, underscoring the urgent need for effective intervention tools. However, because budget allocations often cannot accommodate the premium pricing of advanced mapping technologies, manufacturers face difficulties expanding into price-sensitive markets, thereby slowing the overall growth trajectory of the industry.

Market Trends

The convergence of cardiac mapping with Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) technologies is rapidly reshaping the competitive landscape. As PFA systems become clinically preferred for their ability to deliver rapid, non-thermal pulmonary vein isolation, mapping platforms are evolving to ensure seamless integration with these innovative catheters. This technological synergy allows for precise visualization of catheter placement and assessment of lesion durability without the extensive point-by-point mapping required by traditional radiofrequency methods. The impact of this integration is profound; MedTech Dive reported in October 2024 that Boston Scientific saw a 177% increase in third-quarter electrophysiology sales year-over-year, a surge attributed primarily to the high demand for its PFA system and compatible mapping tools.

Simultaneously, the industry is witnessing a shift toward non-contact and non-invasive mapping solutions designed to streamline procedural workflows and enhance safety. These advanced systems employ body-surface electrodes and sophisticated computational modeling to reconstruct 3D electrical maps of the heart before invasive catheters are introduced.

This approach significantly reduces the time required for intra-procedural mapping and minimizes patient exposure to ionizing radiation. Validating the operational benefits of this methodology, Vektor Medical published study results in April 2024 showing that their AI-based non-invasive mapping technology led to a 43.7% reduction in fluoroscopy duration during arrhythmia ablation procedures compared to the standard of care.
