Shock wave lithotripters are non-invasive or minimally invasive treatment devices for kidney stone management. These devices generate shockwaves that are focused on the calculi and can pulverize stones of various sizes. Ureterorenoscope is a type of fiberoptic endoscope used in simultanous visulization and removal of kidney stones in a minimally invasive procedure. It is more reliable with a higher success rate in terms of removal of stones.
Statistics:
The global urolithiasis management devices market is estimated to account for US$ 2,033.6 Mn in terms of value by the end of 2027.
Global Urolithiasis Management Devices Market: Drivers
Increasing prevalence of urolithiasis is expected to propel growth of the global urolithiasis management devices market over the forecast period. For instance, according to the study, ‘Epidemiology of urolithiasis in Asia’, published in the Asian Journal of Urology, in October 2018, the prevalence of urolithiasis increased significantly in the last few decades in most Asian countries, like China (from 4% to 6.4%), Japan (from 4.3% to 9.0%), South Korea (from 3.5% to 11.5%), Thailand (from 1.4% to 16.9%), Saudi Arabia (from 6.8% to 19.1%), Iran (from 5.7% to 8.1%) and Israel (from 1.2% to 9.2%).
Moreover, increasing geriatric population is also expected to boost demand for urolithiasis management devices. For instance, according to the World Health Organization, geriatric population is expected to reach 2 billion by 2050, up from 900 million in 2015.
Statistics:
North America held dominant position in the global urolithiasis management devices market in 2019, accounting for 37.4% share in terms of value, followed by Europe and Asia Pacific, respectively.

Global Urolithiasis Management Devices Market: Restraints
High risk of damage to urinary tract is expected to hinder growth of the global urolithiasis management devices market over the forecast period. Lithotripsy procedure involves generation of shockwaves sent across the body at the particular of kidney stones with high precision. A major side effect of lithotripsy is damage to soft tissues due to shock waves and permanent loss of renal functions.
Moreover, excise tax on medical devices is expected to hinder growth of the global urolithiasis management devices market.
