United States Medical Oxygen Market to be Dominated by the Liquid Oxygen Segment by 2031

Rising demand for point-of-care treatments is expected to drive the United States medical oxygen market in the forecast period, 2027-2031.


According to TechSci Research report, “United States Medical Oxygen Market–Industry Size, Share, Trends, Opportunity and Forecast, 2031F”, the United States Medical Oxygen Market will grow from USD 253.34 Million in 2025 to USD 330.67 Million by 2031 at a 4.54% CAGR.

Population of the United States has been steadily increasing over the years. With a growing population comes an increased number of people requiring medical treatments and surgeries. Conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pneumonia, and respiratory distress syndrome often necessitate medical oxygen to support respiratory function and improve patient outcomes, thereby propelling the medical oxygen market and driving growth over the forecast period.

Advancements in medical technology have expanded the scope of treatments and surgeries available to patients in the country. In the United States, the growing healthcare infrastructure and rising medical expenditures mean that professionals now have access to a wider range of procedures, including complex surgeries and intensive care treatments. Many of these procedures require medical oxygen to support patients' breathing during and after the intervention. As medical technology continues to progress, the demand for medical oxygen is likely to increase further.

Moreover, the United States has an aging population, with a significant number of older adults requiring medical interventions. As people age, they become more susceptible to various health conditions, including respiratory diseases and cardiovascular problems. Medical oxygen is frequently used in the management of these conditions, providing vital respiratory support, and improving overall patient well-being. The aging population contributes to the growing need for medical oxygen in the country.

In response to the growing need for medical oxygen, healthcare organizations and policymakers should focus on proactive planning and resource allocation. This includes investing in the necessary infrastructure, such as oxygen generation and storage facilities, and maintaining a robust supply chain. Additionally, promoting public awareness about responsible oxygen use and avoiding unnecessary waste can help optimize the availability of medical oxygen for those who genuinely need it.

There is increased demand for medical oxygen cylinders in the country, particularly in home care settings, among people with respiratory conditions and during oxygen shortages. Most of the oxygen demand is observed during patients suffering serious illnesses such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and often in conditions like Pneumonia. Also, the growing older population is highly responsible for expanding the market demand for medical oxygen as they undergo breathing and respiratory illnesses during their treatments and surgeries frequently. The shift towards at-home care services has been driven by several factors, including technological advancements, the desire for patient-centred care, and cost-effectiveness. Patients with respiratory disorders benefit from continuous monitoring, personalized treatment plans, and convenient access to medical professionals without the need for frequent hospital visits.

Based on the delivery mode, the market is segmented into tanks/pipelines, cylinders, and others. The cylinders segment dominated the market in 2022 and is expected to continue to grow over the forecast period. This can be attributed to major factors such as cylinders being widely utilised for supplemental or emergency supplies in hospitals that primarily rely on liquid deliveries. Despite the high costs associated with them, including consumables, maintenance, and electricity, concentrators are considered a relatively quick and simple method to meet the growing need for medical oxygen in settings with less-developed infrastructure.

Based on the end user, the market is divided among hospitals & clinics, ambulatory care centres, home care, skilled nursing facilities, assisted living facilities and others. The home care segment dominated the market in 2022 due to increased demand for medical oxygen in home care facilities to treat various health conditions, including during the COVID-19 surge. The hospitals & clinics segment is expected to hold the largest share in the forecast period. This is on account of the rising number of patient hospitalisations and the increase in development of hospitals & infrastructure in the coming years.

Based on form, the market is segmented into liquid oxygen, compressed oxygen, and oxygen gas mixture. The liquid oxygen segment is expected to hold the largest share of the market during the forecast period, owing to its low cost, light weight, and high purity.
