EXTRACORPOREAL MEMBRANE OXYGENATION SYSTEM MARKET ANALYSIS

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) system is a life supporting system providing cardiac and respiratory support to the patients suffering from severe respiratory failure. ECMO circuit comprises cannulas, pump, blender and oxygenator, which oxygenates the blood and remove carbon dioxide through extracorporeal gas exchange device referred to as membrane oxygenator. Potential indications for which ECMO is used includes severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), acute hypercapnic respiratory failure, bridge lung transplantation, primary graft dysfunction post-lung transplantation, and pulmonary hypertension with right ventricular failure.

Global extracorporeal membrane oxygenation system market is estimated to be valued at US$ 316.5 million in 2022 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 5.3% during the forecast period (2022-2030).

Global Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation System 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 COVID-19 pandemic had a positive impact on the global extracorporeal membrane oxygenation system market, owing to its use in patients infected with the COVID-19 infection, experiencing difficulty in breathing. For instance, in April 2020, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had issued guidance to provide a policy to help expand the availability of devices used in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy to address the novel coronavirus (COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2) public health emergency. ECMO systems are used for long-term respiratory/cardiopulmonary failure and provide assisted extracorporeal circulation and physiologic gas exchange of the patient’s blood for more than six hours. The technology can oxygenate a severely sick COVID-19 pneumonia patient's blood without the need to transfer oxygen through fluid filled lungs. Thus the COVID-19 pandemic had a positive impact on the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation system market

Global Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation System Market: Key Developments

In May 2022, LivaNova PLC, a global medical technology company, acquired ALung Technologies, Inc., the leading provider of low-flow extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) technologies for treating patients with acute respiratory failure

In January 2021, Braile Biomedica, an advanced manufacturer of medical-surgical and hospital products, launched SOLIS System, a product against COVID-19 in partnership with the Eldorado Institute, a non-profit research, development and innovation institution,  and Embrapii, a social organization. The system consists of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), a form of extracorporeal breathing.
