Surgical staplers or surgical staples are medical devices that can be used in surgery or other medical procedures in place of sutures both internally and externally. They are widely used to close surgical wounds or incisions that are too big or complex to close with traditional stitches. Surgical staplers are used to close wounds in areas where the skin is tight against bone and are often used in minimally invasive surgery. Currently, staplers are preferred over sutures as these are faster, easier, consistent, and accurate to use as compared to hand sutures. Modern staplers are either reusable that are made of stainless steel or disposable that are made of plastic. There are a number of benefits to using medical staples.
Market Statistics:
The global surgical staplers market is estimated to account for US$ 4,286.6 Mn in terms of value by the end of 2022.
Drivers:
Increasing frequency of surgeries and surging demand is expected to propel the growth of the global surgical staplers market during the forecast period. For instance, with the increase in the number of surgical procedures, the demand for surgical staplers is also increasing with a rapid pace. In August 2021, Panther Healthcare announced the launch of the Smart Powered Stapler platform that offers intelligent and automatic control over tissue compression, transection and resection for gastrointestinal, oncology, colorectal, thoracic, gynaecologic, and other open and laparoscopic surgical procedures.
Opportunities:
Applications in the treatment of chronic diseases and age-related conditions are expected to provide significant growth opportunities for players in the global surgical staplers market. The prevalence of chronic diseases as well as the geriatric population is increasing rapidly around the world. For people aged 65 years and older, the prevalence of having one or more chronic diseases is higher than those aged 45 to 64 years. Around 85% of older adults have at least one chronic health condition, and around 60% have at least two chronic diseases, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). As a result, there is an increasing demand for surgical staplers across the globe.
Restraints:
Increased risk of infections and other adverse events and stringent safety regulations are major factors expected to hamper growth of the global surgical staplers market. For instance, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is working on measures to help reduce risk associated with surgical staplers and implantable staplers. In October 2021, the FDA announced several actions related to surgical stapler and staple regulation and safety. Furthermore, in March 2019, the FDA released a letter to healthcare providers to point out such risks and to offer updated recommendations for the devices.
