Additionally, increased spending on health from public and private sectors will bolster industry demand. In the next five years, firms will be threatened by greater taxes on their main products, but overall revenue will still rise.

This industry primarily researches, develops and produces medical, surgical, ophthalmic and veterinary instruments and apparatus, such as syringes, anesthesia apparatus, blood transfusion equipment, catheters, surgical clamps and medical thermometers. The

industry does not manufacture electromedical and electrotherapeutic apparatus, laboratory instruments, X-ray apparatus, nonmedical thermometers or ophthalmic goods.
