Market Synopsis
The global healthcare games and simulation market share is considered to grow exponentially during the forecast period (2018-2027) owing to the increasing mortality rate, asserts Market Research Future (MRFR). Healthcare simulation is referred to as the advanced methodology for training and education of the healthcare professionals using advanced educational technology. Healthcare games helps to enhance the productivity of the patients and improve the grasping power, interpersonal skills, and intellectual among people. These simulations are useful to improve responses for children suffering from autism or other disorders. It is also useful for nursing & medical students in order to enhance their knowledge regarding patient care, disease, and drug responses. Healthcare games also helps to bridge the gap between real-life clinical experience and classroom learning.

Drivers and Constraints Impacting the Market
The global healthcare games and simulation market is driven by several factors. With new technological advancements, ever-rising population, augmenting focus on patient safety, benefits of simulation over traditional learning, and increasing mortality rate are some of the major factors considered to propel the global healthcare games and simulation market during the assessment period. The increasing adoption of healthcare IT technology in developed as well as in the developing countries are presumed to stimulate the market growth. Moreover, the simulation techniques have major advantage for kids, patients, and healthcare professionals which is further driving the growth of this market. Additionally, the augmenting demand for healthcare games, expanding healthcare IT sector, and extensive use of software solution in healthcare are some of the other major factors contributing to the growth of the market. Healthcare simulation also leverages virtual, haptic, and reality technology. Haptic technology uses of the sense of touch by applying vibration, forces, and motions in order to aid multisensory and realistic learning. It assists surgeons to learn surgery sans actual patients.
On the flip side, the high cost of healthcare simulators coupled with limited allocation of fund resources are considered to dampen the market growth during the appraisal period.
