Despite this, in 2020 the country\u2019s hospitals did not post a surge in\nbasic equipment generally used to handle COVID cases (patient monitors or\nventilators for example), nor did Colombian hospitals increase their acquisitions\nof specialized, high-tech equipment, as occurred in Argentina and Mexico.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>GHI\u2019s team recently analyzed the verified\nyear-end figures for Colombia in the HospiScope database to evaluate the\nchanges in the market as well as the significant drops that were observed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Basic Breakdown<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2020 Colombia posted decreases in many of the basic medical equipment categories tracked in HospiScope, with a few negligible-to-modest increases, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Infusion pumps: -7.3% decrease in Colombia in 2020<\/li><li> Patient monitoring systems: -3.6% decrease in Colombia in 2020<\/li><li> Ventilators: -2.1% decrease in Colombia in 2020<\/li><li> X-ray machines: -1.7% decrease in Colombia in 2020<\/li><li> EKG machines: 0.3% increase in Colombia in 2020<\/li><li> Ultrasound machines: 0.4% increase in Colombia in 2020 <\/li><li> Anesthesia machines: 2.3% increase in Colombia in 2020<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong> Specialized Shrinkage<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2020 Colombia posted a number of drops in specialized equipment counts, among them:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Hemodialysis machines: -17.6% decrease in Colombia in 2020<\/li><li> Radiotherapy equipment: -12.7% decrease in Colombia in 2020<\/li><li> Gamma cameras: -11.1% decrease in Colombia in 2020<\/li><li> Stereotactic mammography machines: -7.9% decrease in Colombia in 2020<\/li><li> Lithotripter machines: -5.2% decrease in Colombia in 2020<\/li><li> Linear accelerators: -4.6% decrease in Colombia in 2020<\/li><li> Fluoroscopes: -1.3% decrease in Colombia in 2020<\/li><li> Bone densitometers: -1.3% decrease in Colombia in 2020<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>However, there were also some bright\nspots, with increases that included:&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>PET systems: 48.9%\nincrease in Colombia in 2020<\/li><li>MRI machines: 6.2%\nincrease in Colombia in 2020<\/li><li>Angiograms: 2.6% increase\nin Colombia in 2020<\/li><li>C-arms: 1.4% increase in\nColombia in 2020<\/li><li>CT scanners: 1.5%\nincrease in Colombia in 2020<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Medical Equipment Market Growth in Colombia, 2019-2023<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To determine whether 2020 was an\naberration or reflects the current and near-future state of the medical\nequipment\/devices market in Colombia for 2021 and beyond, it\u2019s helpful to look\nat future projections.
