CORONARY STENTS MARKET ANALYSIS

Global coronary stents market is estimated to be valued at US$ 11,971.0 million in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 7.93% during the forecast period (2023-2030). A coronary artery stent is a tubular device that is inserted into the coronary artery that supplies blood to the heart and keeps the artery open when treating coronary artery disease. It is used in a procedure called percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Coronary stents are currently used in over 90% of PCI procedures. Stents have been shown to reduce angina pectoris (chest pain), improve survival rates, and reduce the side effects of acute myocardial infarction.

Analysts’ Views on Global Coronary Stents Market:

Increased prevalence of coronary artery disease have raised the demand for coronary stents which is expected to drive the market growth over the forecast period. For instance, in February 2022, according to a report published on Springer Nature, which is a scientific journal, a study was conducted on 3,906 people, the prevalence of coronary artery disease was 17.0%

This is attributed to the increasing adoption of organic growth strategies such as product launches by key players in the region to expand their product portfolio and it is expected to drive the market growth over the forecast period. For instance, in March 2022, Shockwave Medical, Inc., a pioneer in the development of Intravascular Lithotripsy (IVL), to treat severely calcified cardiovascular disease, announced the global commercial availability of the Shockwave M5+ peripheral IVL catheter after receiving both CE Mark and U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clearance.

The European region is expected to be the second largest region over the forecast period, owing to an increasing adoption of growth strategies such as product launches by key players in the region to expand product portfolio is expected to drive the market growth over the forecast period. For instance, in April 2022, Johnson & Johnson Private Limited’s subsidiary Cordis, a worldwide leader in cardiology and endovascular devices announced that it has received European market approval for its Cypher sirolimus-eluting stent for the treatment of newly-diagnosed coronary artery lesions.

Global Coronary Stents Market– Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a highly contagious infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). According to the World Health Organization (WHO) around 40 million people were affected globally, till October 10, 2022.

However, the COVID-19 pandemic had a negative impact on the global coronary stents market due to reduced number of surgical operations during the pandemic period. For instance, in July 2020, according to an article published in the PubMed Central, a biomedical and life sciences journal, a survey was conducted and it was found that the all hospitals have had to sort the urgency of their daily surgical procedures and consider non-surgical methods wherever possible.

Global Coronary Stents Market Segmentation:

The global coronary stents market report is segmented into product type, technology, application, end user, and region

Based on Product Type, the market is segmented into bare-metal stents, drug eluting stents, and bioabsorbable stents.
