Smart Wearable Kidney Monitor Market Report 2025

The smart wearable kidney monitor market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $0.91 billion in 2024 to $1.07 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rising investments in nephrology-focused digital health startups, increasing government initiatives, expansion of clinical trials, growth in home-based healthcare services, and the proliferation of digital health startups.

The smart wearable kidney monitor market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.1 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing healthcare expenditures, rising prevalence of chronic kidney diseases, expanding penetration of e-commerce platforms, growing incidence of diabetes and hypertension, and a higher number of kidney transplant procedures. Major trends in the forecast period include integration with telemedicine, adoption of artificial intelligence, miniaturization of sensors, and advancements in biosensor technology.

The rising number of kidney transplant procedures is expected to propel the growth of the smart wearable kidney monitor market going forward. Kidney transplant procedures involve surgically placing a healthy donor kidney into a patient with kidney failure to restore normal renal function. The number of these procedures is increasing due to the growing prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD), as more patients progress to end-stage renal failure requiring transplants. Smart wearable kidney monitors support post-transplant care by providing continuous, non-invasive monitoring of kidney function, allowing early detection of complications, reducing hospital visits, and enabling personalized treatment. For instance, in January 2025, according to the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, the number of kidney transplants in the U.S. reached 27,759 in 2024, marking a 1.6% increase from 2023. Therefore, the rising number of kidney transplant procedures is driving the smart wearable kidney monitor market.

Companies in this market are developing advanced biowearable sensors to enhance kidney disease management. Biowearable sensors are compact, non-invasive devices that continuously track key biomarkers related to kidney function, such as creatinine and urea, through sweat or interstitial fluid analysis. For example, in April 2024, Metyos, a France-based biowearable technology company, launched a wrist-worn biosensor that monitors critical kidney biomarkers in real time. Using nanotechnology and AI-driven analytics, the device detects early signs of kidney dysfunction, reduces the need for frequent blood tests, and syncs with a mobile app to provide personalized health insights and alerts for abnormal biomarker levels, enabling proactive care.

In December 2023, Alio Inc., a U.S.-based medical technology company, partnered with Al Redwan Medical Services Company, a Saudi Arabia-based dialysis equipment provider, to launch the SmartPatch kidney monitor in the GCC region. This collaboration aims to improve remote monitoring for dialysis patients and facilitate early detection of critical health indicators.

Major players in the smart wearable kidney monitor market are Cardinal Peak Inc., KidneyX, Alio Inc., Nephria Bio Inc., Vivance Technologies Inc., GFR90 Inc., Kite Medical Ltd., Metyos SAS, Proton Intelligence Inc., Kalium Health Ltd., WearTech Applied Research Center.

The regions covered in smart wearable kidney monitor market report are Asia-Pacific, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, North America, South America, Middle East and Africa. The countries covered in the smart wearable kidney monitor market report are Australia, Brazil, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Japan, Russia, South Korea, UK, USA, Canada, Italy, Spain.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

The fast surge in U.S. tariffs and the trade tensions that followed in spring 2025 are heavily affecting the medical equipment sector, particularly for imported imaging machine components, surgical-grade stainless steel, and plastic disposables. Hospitals and clinics resist price hikes, pressuring manufacturers’ margins. Regulatory hurdles compound the problem, as tariff-related supplier changes often require re-certification of devices, delaying time-to-market. Companies are mitigating risks by dual-sourcing critical parts, expanding domestic production of commoditized items, and accelerating R&D in cost-efficient materials.

A smart wearable kidney monitor is a non-invasive device worn on the body to continuously track kidney function and related health parameters, including hydration, electrolyte levels, and blood pressure. Utilizing advanced sensors, wireless connectivity, and AI, it provides real-time data for early detection and remote management of kidney-related conditions. The device supports proactive disease management and enables early detection of kidney dysfunction, particularly for patients with chronic kidney conditions.

The main types of smart wearable kidney monitors include patch-based, wristband, belt, and other monitors. Patch-based monitors are small adhesive sensors that attach to the skin and continuously measure biomarkers such as creatinine or electrolytes via sweat or interstitial fluid. These devices are distributed through both online and offline channels and are applied in chronic kidney disease monitoring, dialysis monitoring, post-transplant monitoring, and other applications. End users include hospitals, clinics, home care settings, ambulatory surgical centers, and others.
