Cardiac rhythm management refers to a process of monitoring functioning of the heart throughdevices. Cardiac rhythm management devicesareused to provide therapeutic solutions to patients suffering from cardiac disorderssuch as cardiac arrhythmias, heart failure, and cardiac arrests. Cardiac disorders lead to irregular heartbeat. Technologicaladvancementsand rise in the number of deaths due to increasing incidences of heart diseases and increasing aging population are some of the major factors driving the cardiac rhythm management market. Heart disease is one of the primary causes of death in the U. S. Excess of alcohol consumption; smoking, high cholesterol levels, and obesity are some of the major causes of heart diseases. Cardiac rhythm management is conducted through two majordevices: implantable cardiac rhythm devices and pacemakers. Implantable cardiac rhythm devices treat patients with improper heartbeat. Based on device, the cardiac rhythm management market can be segmented into defibrillators, pacemakers, cardiac resynchronization therapy devices, implantable defibrillators, and external defibrillators. Pacemakersare used to treat patients with slow heartbeat. Based on end user, the cardiac rhythm management market can be segmented intohospitals, home/ambulatory, and others.

Brain monitoring devices refer to the medical devices that measure the activities inside the brain. These devices measure the short wave's activities inside the brain and help to detect if anything abnormal in the brain. Brain monitoring devices market is growing at a significant rate due to increase in the incidence cases of neurological disorders and growing awareness for different types of treatments available in the market. Intracranial pressure (ICP) monitor refers to a medical device that is placed inside the brain and is used to measure pressure inside the brain. Intracranial pressure monitors sense the pressure inside the skull and send recordings to the recorder for better analysation. This test is performed in cases with severe head injury or if there is some brain or nervous disease. Intracranial pressure monitoring is done to remove tumor if any or to check for any blood vessel injury post surgery, which may lead to swelling if left untreated. Intracranial pressure monitors market is increasing at a significant rate due to increasing prevalence of brain injury or brain or nervous disease cases.

The growth of the crop can be affected by fungal infection. Fungicides are chemical compound used to kill fungi or fungal spores. Triazole is most widely used fungicides due to their different uses and efficacy against a number of fungal diseases. Triazole is highly effective against many different fungal diseases include rusts, leaf-spotting fungi and powdery mildews. Triazole is used on field crops, fruit trees and vegetables. Repeated use of triazole can be avoided, especially under high disease pressure or against rapid cycling diseases such as rust to avoid fungicide resistance. Ever-increasing population, changing consumer preferences for food, results in the high production of food. These factors motivate farmers to utilize optimum-quality fungicides for crop protection in order to ensure higher yields. Triazole prevents and cures diseases that can have ill effects on crop yield and quality. The triazole fungicides market can be segmented on the basis of crop type: cereals and grains, fruits and vegetables and others.

Well stimulation is the process of well intervention performed on oil and gas well. The main purpose of well stimulation is to increase the productivity of oil and gas industry by improving the flow of hydrocarbons (organic compound consisting entirely of hydrogen and carbon such as alkanes, alkenes, cycloalkanes and alkyne-based compounds) from drainage area to the well bored for the extraction of oil and gases. As the oil well become old, their productivity decreases in such case well stimulation materials are useful in improving the productivity of the oil, helping in the overall reduction of crude oil price in the global market.

Steam generator is a device which is used to create steam by boiling water. Steam generators are also referred as heat exchangers used to convert water particles into steam from heat produced in a nuclear reactor plant. Nuclear steam generator is used in high pressure water reactor having primary loop (piping system that contains coolant) and secondary loops (have separate piping system, here water is converted to steam to rotate turbines which generate electricity) attached to the water reactor. The primary loop is usually at very high temperature and pressure. Nuclear steam generator is a device which is used to transfer heat between the two loops from primary loop to the secondary loop attached to the generator. Nuclear steam generator which is attached between the primary and secondary loop generate electricity from the nuclear plant. Water flowing between the primary and secondary loops never mixes with each other. Materials which are used to manufacture turbine and piping system of a nuclear steam generator have special features to withstand heat and radiation of the reactor. Normal nuclear plant steam generator take the dimension up to 70 feet (approximately 21 meter) in length and around 800 tons in weight.

Thermoformed plastic products can be produced by heating a plastic sheet to a pliable forming temperature, shaping it as desirable, and trimming it to create a usable end product. Plastics can be thermoformed through various processes which include vacuum snapback, plug assist forming, and thick and thin gauge thermoforming. Different raw materials used for manufacturing thermoformed plastic products include acrylics, bio-degradable polymers, polycarbonates, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polystyrene (PS), and poly vinyl chloride (PVC). Thermoformed plastic products are usually lighter in weight and relatively-stronger compared to traditional packaging materials such as glass and woods. Thus, they are most-widely used in different packaging applications in electronic, healthcare, and food packaging industries .

Smart cards are small-sized cards with embedded chips, which can receive, transmit, and process information as and when required by end users.

Sodium reduction is reduction of salt content from the food products. Sodium reduction ingredients are used for reducing salt content from the food products either by replacing the salt from the food or partially reducing the excess salt from the food products. Sodium reducing ingredients plays vital role in food additives industry. Sodium is an essential nutrient that our body requires for proper functioning. However, excess amount of sodium intake can lead to high blood pressure (hypertension). High blood pressure can lead to stokes, heart and kidney diseases. According to Federal, Provincial and Territorial (FPT) governments people in Canada eat more than required amount of sodium, almost double than what our body requires. Average sodium requirement of the body for proper functioning is 2300 mg of sodium per day.
