BLOOD DIALYZER MARKET ANALYSIS

The process of hemodialys is the popular renal replacement therapy in most countries, worldwide. From past few decades, there has been an increasing interest in understanding the needs of hemodialysis patients. Various risk factors, such as failures, adverse reactions, and poor outcomes of older dialysis methods are setting path for higher demand for blood dialyzers, thus propelling the overall market growth over the forecast period.

Blood dialyzers, also called hemodialyzers, are mainly used for the removal of excess fluid accumulated in kidney. Excess fluid is removed by creating a pressure gradient across two compartments of dialyzer. Three primary methods commonly used to gain access to the blood during hemodialysis are: intravenous catheter, arteriovenous fistula (AV), and synthetic graft. The type of access to these methods is determined by factors such as the expected time course of a patient's renal failure and the condition of vasculature of patient.

Global blood dialyzer market size is valued at US$ 6,241.9 million in 2022 and is expected to witness a CAGR of 6.3% over the forecast period (2022 – 2030).

Increasing use of cellulose membrane in blood dialyzer due to its compatibility is expected to drive growth of the global blood dialyzer market over the forecast period.

Increasing use of cellulose membrane in blood dialyzer due to its compatibility is expected to drive growth of the global blood dialyzer market. For instance, on January 26, 2022, National Center for Biotechnology Information published a report on Influence of Dialysis Membranes on Clinical Outcomes: From History to Innovation, which reported that The cellulose triacetate (CTA) dialysis membrane is the most biocompatible in cellulosic membranes, Cellulose membranes were enhanced through the chemical masking of the hydroxyl groups such as by their acylation with acetate groups. These modified membranes are composed of cellulose acetate, cellulose diacetate (CDA), and cellulose triacetate (CTA), which were named according to the amount of acetate groups in each of the cellulose units. The structural adjustments decreased the majority of free hydroxyl groups on the membrane surface that could bind to complement receptor C3b, the major factor that triggers the complement activation and the cause of adverse events.

Increasing product launches by key market players is expected to boost the global blood dialyzer market growth over the forecast period.

Increasing product launches by key market players is expected to drive the global blood dialyzer market growth. For instance, on March 29, 2022, Nipro Medical Corporation, a healthcare manufacturing company, announced the commercial launch of SURDIAL DX Hemodialysis System in the U.S. SURDIAL DX is a hemodialysis system designed to create an optimal dialysis treatment experience for patients and clinicians. Manufactured in Japan. SURDIAL DX was developed with key input from clinicians to offer patient-focused features for optimal performance, efficiency, and ergonomics.

Global Blood Dialyzer Market – Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic

Since the COVID-19 virus outbreak in December 2019, the disease has spread to over 100 countries across the globe and the World Health Organization had declared it a public health emergency on January 30, 2020.The sudden outbreak of COVID-19 has bought the world to a standstill. The whole world is fighting this pandemic with increased burden on hospitals and healthcare professionals.

Whereas covid-19 had a negative impact on kidney disease management. For instance, on April 27, 2022, according to the reports published in journal of clinical medicine, which reported that in Romania, The COVID-19 pandemic influenced renal disease management, affecting fragile patients and worsening their outcomes. The number of CKD (chronic kidney disease) patients admitted to the department decreased, to minimalize their exposure and the risk of infection.

Thus COVID-19 has hindered growth of the global blood dialyzer market during the pandemic.

Global Blood Dialyzer Market: Key Developments

• Increasing product launches by key market players is expected to boost growth of the global blood dialyzer market over the forecast period. For instance, on May 26, 2022, Medtronic plc, a medical device company and DaVita Inc., a healthcare company, announced the intent to form a new, independent kidney care-focused medical device company to enhance the patient treatment experience and improve overall outcomes. The company would focus on developing a broad suite of kidney care products and solutions, including home-based products, to make different dialysis treatments more accessible to patients.
• Increasing partnerships between key market players is expected to drive growth of the global blood dialyzer market over the forecast period. For instance, on September 2021, Fresenius Medical Care, a healthcare company, announced a strategic distribution partnership with JMS Co. Ltd, a manufacturer of medical devices and pharmaceuticals, in Japan. Under the agreement, JMS Co. Ltd. would distribute Fresenius Medical Care’s home dialysis therapies in the Japanese market, providing patients with dialysis choices. Home dialysis allows patients to have treatment in the familiar surroundings of their own home, where they can take an active hands-on role in their own care, while avoiding the need to travel to a clinic and therefore enjoy more flexibility to work, study and/or socialize
