Inflation Devices Market Drivers
Increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases
The rising prevalence of cardiovascular diseases such as coronary artery disease and heart failure is driving the demand for angioplasty procedures, which is subsequently fueling the growth of the inflation devices market. According to WHO, cardiovascular disease is the number one cause of death globally, responsible for over 17 million deaths per year.
Favorable reimbursement scenario
The availability of reimbursement for angioplasty procedures is increasing the adoption of inflation devices. Public and private insurance providers are increasingly covering expenses related to cardiovascular treatments due to the risks associated with heart diseases.
Rising minimally invasive surgeries
The shift from traditional open surgeries toward minimally invasive procedures is boosting the adoption of inflation devices used in balloon based surgeries such as angioplasty. Minimally invasive surgeries reduce hospital stays and costs.
Increasing healthcare expenditure
The growing healthcare spending by governments and individuals globally is leading to higher adoption of advanced cardiovascular devices and treatments, thereby driving the inflation devices market. According to CMS, the healthcare spending in the US is estimated to reach USD 6.2 trillion by 2028.
Inflation Devices Market Opportunities
Growth prospects in emerging economies
Rising prevalence of CVDs along with improving healthcare infrastructure in developing nations such as India, China, Brazil, etc. is expected to create significant opportunities for inflation device manufacturers. Favorable regulatory scenario is also attracting key players to emerging markets.
Development of smart inflation devices
Integration of technologies such as IoT, artificial intelligence, and machine learning in inflation devices can help improve patient monitoring and enable data-driven, precise inflation control. Companies are working on developing connected, smart inflation devices.
Increasing adoption of disposable devices
The growing trend of using disposable devices to reduce cross-contamination risks presents lucrative opportunities for market players. Disposable inflation devices eliminate maintenance and sterilization costs.
Expansion of application areas
The widening clinical applications of inflation devices in procedures such as balloon sinuplasty, airway dilation, balloon gastrointestinal procedures, etc. is creating new avenues for market growth.
