Needleless connectors are essential devices, which connect to the end of vascular catheters and enable catheter access for aspiration and infusion in patients. Needle-free intravenous catheter controls the access for vascular catheters. The use of needleless connectors reduces needle-stick injuries, which is major side effect of needle connectors and thus lessens the risk of blood borne infectious diseases. Needle-free connectors with extended dwell time can help to prevent intraluminal contamination, as well as device cross-contamination in patients.

 Europe needle-free IV connectors market is estimated to be valued at US$ 246.2 million in 2020 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 8.7% during the forecast period (2020-2027).

Europe Needle Free IV Connectors  | Coherent Market Insights

Europe needle-free IV connectors market is expected to witness significant growth in the near future, owing to increasing needle-stick injuries caused by needle IV connectors. For instance, according to the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work (EU-OSHA) report 2018 estimates, around 1 million needle stick injuries (NSIs) are reported in Europe each year that are caused due to usage of needle connectors.

Moreover, key players in the market are focusing on launching of novel needle-free IV connectors, and launches and approval of such new needle-free IV connectors in the market are expected to support growth of the market during the forecast period. For instance, in September 2018, Amsino International, Inc., a U.S.-based medical device manufacturer, received the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 510(k) approval for its new SURE-LOK needle-free connector, and it is also available in Europe.
