 The impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on the medical devices market is expected to be significant as increasingly more countries resort to lockdowns to control the spread of the disease

Mentions of cloud computing within the filings of companies in the medical devices industry rose 26% between the final quarter of 2021 and the first quarter of 2022.

In total, the frequency of sentences related to cloud computing between April 2021 and March 2022 was 94% higher than in 2016 when GlobalData, from whom our data for this article is taken, first began to track the key issues referred to in company filings.

When companies in the medical devices industry publish annual and quarterly reports, ESG reports and other filings, GlobalData analyses the text and identifies individual sentences that relate to disruptive forces facing companies in the coming years. Cloud computing is one of these topics - companies that excel and invest in these areas are thought to be better prepared for the future business landscape and better equipped to survive unforeseen challenges.
