Ever since the WHO (World Health Organization) declared COVID-19 as a pandemic, the demand for medical products has literally shot to the moon. But one section that has seen a particularly steep increase are medical products used in non-acute healthcare.
Manufacturers from across the world have had to pull out all the stops in their supply chain to meet the growing demand from hospitals and clinics during the unexpected peak in COVID-19 cases.
What is Non-Acute medical care?
Non-acute medical care refers to the provision of healthcare with the primary purpose of helping patients function in the long-term and live a higher quality of life. By contrast, acute care refers to treating patients in the short-term for brief but severe conditions such as an episode of illness or injury.
Non-acute medical products are simply products that are used more often for non-acute forms of medical care, but not necessarily always, they are also needed for surgery after all. Here are the top 10 non-acute medical products of 2021 to consider if you’re ever in stark need for what have now become essential supplies for even the average household.
