Anesthesia Gases Market to Surpass US$ 2,266.9 Mn by 2028

Anesthetic gases are administered as primary therapy for the preoperative sedation and adjunctive anesthesia maintenance to intravenous (IV) anesthetic agents (such as midazolam and propofol) in the perioperative setting. Anesthetic gases (such as isoflurane, sevoflurane, desflurane, halothane, and nitrous oxide), also known as inhaled anesthetics, are often used in the emergency departments and a variety of surgical interventions, and thus, there is an increasing demand for anesthesia gases.

Market Statistics:

The global Anesthesia Gases Market is estimated to account for US$ 1,828.2 Mn in terms of value by the end of 2022.

Drivers:

Increase in demand for anesthesia gases/devices around the world is expected to propel the growth of the global anesthesia gases market during the forecast period. For instance, with the increase in number of surgical procedures, the demand for anesthesia gases/devices is also increasing rapidly. In February 2022, Sedana Medical announced the launch of Sedaconda (isoflurane) in Germany. Sedaconda (isoflurane), delivered via a medical device Sedaconda ACD (Anaesthetic Conserving Device), is the only approved inhaled sedation therapy for use during the intensive care. Since the European DCP approval in July 2021, Sedaconda (isoflurane) has received national approvals in 14 countries and additional applications for marketing approval have also been submitted.

Opportunities:

Increasing prevalence of chronic diseases and increase in geriatric population across the globe is expected to offer significant growth opportunities for players in the global anesthesia gases market. For instance, ageing population tends to have a higher prevalence of chronic diseases worldwide, which in turn has increased the number of surgical procedures worldwide. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), around 85% of older adults in the United States have at least one chronic health condition, and 60% have at least two chronic conditions. Thus, with the increase in number of surgical procedures, the demand for anesthesia gases is also increasing with a rapid pace, driving the growth of the global anesthesia gases market.

Restraints:

Side effects of anesthesia gases and increase in usage of generic anesthesia are some major factors expected to hamper the growth of the global anesthesia gases market. For instance, some potential effects of exposure to anesthetic gases are fatigue, headaches, dizziness, nausea, and irritability, as well as birth defects, miscarriages, sterility, cancer, and liver and kidney disease, among operating room staff or their spouses (in the case of miscarriages and birth defects). Anesthetic gases are not recommended during pregnancy, due to their teratogenic potential and effects on the uterus. Owing to such side effects, the use of inhalation anesthetics in certain surgical procedures has decreased, which in turn is hindering the growth of the market.

Global Anesthesia Gases Market- Impact of Coronavirus (Covid-19) Pandemic:

The outbreak of COVID-19 had a severe impact on the anesthesia gases market due to the decrease in surgical intervention (elective procedures). Due to the rising number of cases of COVID-19 in the early stages of the pandemic, all hospitals around the world canceled all elective procedures. According to the research published in the British Journal of Surgery, more than 585,000 elective procedures were postponed in India alone during the 12-week shutdown, and 23.4 million elective surgeries were likely to be canceled worldwide by May 2020. However, the increasing emergency visits and surgeries are expected to increase the use of anesthesia gases worldwide.
