Methodology

How the estimates were built: data sources, modelling approach and validation steps.

Research approach

A market size is a claim about the world, and a claim is only as good as the route to it. Every study is built upward from units and prices — what is actually produced, sold or performed, at what it actually changes hands for — rather than from a headline figure divided downwards. Disclosed company revenue is then used to check that build, not to produce it.

Market size estimation, this report

Sizing starts from unit volumes: the number of new and renovated operating rooms commissioned each year across hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, and specialty clinics, split by region and facility type. Each volume figure is priced using realised average selling prices for a full integration package, adjusted for whether a project is a new build, a full-room replacement, or a partial retrofit adding recording and documentation capability to an existing suite. That bottom-up build is then checked against disclosed revenue and segment commentary from the named equipment suppliers, weighted by each company's estimated share of the installed base. Where a supplier's disclosed growth diverges from the unit-and-price build, the underlying volume or price assumption is corrected rather than the two figures averaged together.

The four stages

The same sequence runs behind every published study, whatever the industry. The order matters as much as the steps: the segment axes are fixed before any number is collected, so the model is never reshaped to fit whatever data happens to turn up.

What the build rests on, and what checks it

The two are not interchangeable. The left column produces the number; the right column tests it. When the check disagrees with the build, the answer is to find which bottom-up assumption is wrong — a unit count, a price, a take-up rate — not to split the difference between them.

The bottom-up build rests on
  • Volume actually transacted — units produced, installed, dispensed or procedures performed, counted at the level each is genuinely recorded
  • Realised pricing by tier and channel, rather than one blended average applied across the whole market
  • Take-up and frequency: how much of the addressable base buys, and how often it repeats
The build is checked against
  • Disclosed revenue of the companies serving the market, where filings separate it far enough to be usable
  • Buyer-side spending totals — capital budgets, procurement lines, or the output of the end market the product is bought against
  • Trade and customs flows, where the product crosses borders in a separately recorded form

Data sources

Published data establishes what happened. Only the people transacting in a market can say why, and what is about to change — so the two are collected separately and weighted differently.

Primary — who is interviewed
  • Commercial and product leadership at the companies that supply the market
  • Procurement and specification leads at the organisations that buy it
  • Distributors, integrators and channel partners, where the market is served indirectly
  • Regulatory and standards specialists, where approval governs what can be sold at all
Secondary — what is read
  • Company filings, annual reports and investor disclosure
  • Government statistics, customs records and regulatory registers
  • Trade association output and standards-body publications
  • Technical and peer-reviewed literature, where the market rests on a clinical or engineering claim
Primary research design, this report

Interviews target the roles that actually decide and specify an OR integration purchase: hospital biomedical engineering and facilities directors who own the capital request, OR nursing and surgical services leadership who define the clinical requirement, procurement staff who run the vendor selection, and regulatory affairs contacts who confirm clearance status for the combined system. Sampling weights North America and Western Europe, where integration purchasing is most mature and disclosure is most complete, alongside China, Japan, and the Gulf states, where new hospital construction is driving current demand. Distributor and systems-integrator contacts are also sampled in markets where equipment is sold and installed through a channel rather than directly by the manufacturer.

Secondary sources, this report

Desk research draws on national medical device regulatory registers, including FDA 510(k) clearance listings and the EU's EUDAMED database, to track which suppliers hold current clearance for OR integration and video management systems. Hospital capital project disclosures and public tender records from national health authorities in markets with centralised procurement are used to identify new-build and renovation volumes. Import and export data under the relevant customs codes for surgical video and display equipment supplement supplier-reported shipment figures. Trade association benchmarks from surgical facility planning and biomedical engineering bodies are used to cross-check average project sizing where individual project values are not disclosed.

Desk research runs across proprietary research databases including Factiva, OneSource and Hoovers alongside the public sources above. Modelling and statistical validation are run in SAS and SPSS.

Forecasting

The forecast is not a growth rate applied to a base year. It is built from the drivers that are expected to change, each one stated so a reader can disagree with it.

Forecast approach, this report

The forecast is built on the pace of new hospital and ambulatory surgical center construction in each region, the replacement cycle for OR equipment installed in the prior decade, and the rate at which recording and documentation requirements move from optional to specified. Pricing is held broadly flat in real terms, since integration packages have not shown sustained price inflation or deflation across recent disclosed contracts. The forecast normalises for the surgical volume disruption recorded in 2020 and 2021, treating the subsequent recovery as a return to the pre-disruption capital replacement schedule instead of as new underlying demand. For the forecast to hold, hospital capital budgets need to keep pace with facility construction plans already announced in each region.

Triangulation and validation

No figure enters a report on the strength of one source. Where the two sizing routes disagree the difference is not averaged away — the assumption causing it is isolated, tested against a third independent measure, and either corrected or carried forward as a stated limitation. Historical years are back-tested against the growth actually recorded before any forecast is allowed to run forward from them.

Validation, this report

Historical output was back-tested against recorded year-on-year growth implied by the named suppliers' own disclosed segment or product-line revenue for 2021 through 2024, and the build was adjusted where the implied trajectory diverged from filed figures. Segment share shifts, including the move toward documentation and software licensing, were reviewed against practitioner interview feedback instead of carried forward on trend alone. Sensitivities were tested on the pace of Asia Pacific hospital construction and on the timing of documentation-related regulatory requirements, since both assumptions move the forecast more than any single pricing input. The regional split was checked against total reported hospital capital expenditure in each market to confirm the integration spend implied is a plausible share of it.

Confidence and limitations

Where an estimate is firm and where it is not is stated rather than left to be inferred from the precision of the number.

Confidence framing, this report

Confidence is strongest for the North America and Western Europe hardware segments, where supplier disclosure is most complete and facility counts are independently published. It is weaker for the software and services components, where several suppliers bundle pricing and do not report those lines separately, and for the Middle East and Africa region, where new hospital project data is thinner and less consistently disclosed. A material change in public hospital capital budgets, or a slower-than-assumed rollout of documentation requirements, would be the most likely source of a future revision to this estimate.
