Research and Markets New Zealand Market for Medical Devices Estimated to Be US237 million



April 11, 2005 -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c15418) has announced the addition of New Zealand Medical Devices Market Outlook - Market Intelligence Report to their offering.

This report is ideal for executives wanting to understand the key drivers in medical markets worldwide. The report provides a comprehensive analysis of the market and, importantly, provides 5-year forecasts by technology category, national data projections, outlook and key developments such as regulation, health facilities and government policy. Importantly, the market can be seen in its global context with international market comparisons.

It is estimated the current size of the New Zealand market for medical equipment and supplies is US$237 million. This is equal to US$59 per capita, a similar level of spending to that found in Spain or the UAE, but around US$8 lower than in Australia. New Zealand is around the world's 40th largest market, with an overall size similar to that in Romania or Hong Kong. New Zealand has very little domestic medical equipment manufacturing; what is produced tends to be exported. As a result, around 90% of the market is supplied by imports, primarily from the USA and Australia.

Contents of the report are as follows:
1. Executive Summary
2. Medical Device Market
3. Key National Data Projections
4. International Market Comparisons
5. Sources
