In 2023, Japan had a certain number of paediatric ICU beds (not provided in the forecast data set). Forecasts for the years 2024 to 2028 show a gradual and consistent increase in the number of beds from 124 to 130. This denotes a steady year-on-year percentage growth, reflecting an increasing focus on healthcare capacity for children. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the forecast period remains moderate.

Future trends to watch for include technological innovations in healthcare, changes in population demographics, policy shifts, and emerging healthcare needs that could influence further adjustments in ICU capacity planning.
