Obesity, smoking, an aging population and COVID-related illnesses are reportedly contributing to a rise in the need for home therapeutic respiratory devices.&nbsp;&nbsp;

From the onset of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) to the demand for continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machines, the prevalence of respiratory disorders has pushed the device market to a valuation of $47 billion and projections to reach more than $68 billion by 2032, according to a study by Future Market Insights.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

COPD affects 10% of adults ages 75 and older in the United States, according to the Journal of Italian Society of Gerontology and Geriatrics. The Global Initiative for Asthma statistics found that an estimated 100 million people will be diagnosed with asthma by 2025.&nbsp; Numbers like those have contributed to an increase in the need for home humidifiers, nebulizers and oxygen concentrators.

(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QIPT#NASDAQ">QIPT</a>), a U.S. player in the home medical equipment industry focused on end-to-end respiratory care, also says it is reaping the benefits of the growing market with innovation and ordering technology.&nbsp; The company serves 170,000 patients with the goal of becoming a national provider. &nbsp;

With a growing network of more than 19,000 referring physicians across the country and abroad, Quipt has delivered nearly 350,000 pieces of medical equipment with a subscription-based model that leverages the company&rsquo;s technology.&nbsp; That performance has resulted in an increase in revenue in 2021 to $102.4 million, a 41% increase in revenue year-over-year.

Quipt&rsquo;s near-term goal is to rapidly expand its offerings to focus on patients with heart or pulmonary disease, sleep disorders, reduced mobility and other chronic health conditions.

&ldquo;The demand continues to remain at robust levels surpassing historical run rates for respiratory equipment and services, evidenced by our strength in oxygen and ventilation therapy service lines,&rdquo; Quipt Chairman and CEO Greg Crawford said. &ldquo;We continue to operate in an extremely bullish regulatory environment, providing us the ability to aggressively approach our acquisition strategy with the goal of being a leader in clinical respiratory care throughout the United States.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;

The post-pandemic future also means that patients have developed at-home habits while looking for additional telehealth and home-care options.&nbsp;
