Sales Analysis of General Surgery Devices Market from 2015 to 2022 Vs Market Outlook for 2023 to 2033.

The global sales of the market are anticipated to rise at a CAGR of 6.4% between 2023 and 2033, owing to the rising of colorectal and bariatric surgeries.

The global market holds around 52.6% share of the overall global surgical equipment market with a value of around USD 22.9 Billion, in 2022.

The spike in demand for minimally invasive treatments as a result of the many benefits given by the less invasive surgeries is one of the main drivers driving market expansion in the next years.

Advanced surgical technologies like laparoscopic surgery (keyhole surgery) are widely adopted in general surgeries. For instance, single use incision laparoscopy is such a technique which lowers the post-surgical pains compared to the traditional method.

The adoption of robotics and artificial intelligence in the field is aiding the lucrative market growth as it offers high precision surgery. The increased precision of surgical robots allows for a less intrusive treatment, which has a number of advantages, including faster recovery periods and less surgical problems.

Heavy investments in surgical equipment owing to technical improvements have resulted in high surgical device cost. The expense of purchasing modern surgery instruments is quite high, as it also raises the maintenance cost for them. This restrains market expansion, particularly in developing and undeveloped areas.

Owing to the above-mentioned factors, the global market is expected to grow at a prominent pace, and reach a valuation of around USD 23.8 Billion during the year 2033.

What are the Key Market Drivers in the Global Market?

The market is anticipated to expand due to high prevalence of obesity and colorectal diseases. Obesity is a prominent health burden in almost every country of the world. Obesity rates have progressively increased globally during the previous three decades.

  • According to the WHO 2022 census data, more than one billion individuals worldwide are overweight or obese, including 650 million older people, 340 million young people, and 39 million children.

The advantages associated with post-bariatric surgery are also grabbing the attention of obese people.

  • For instance, according to the study “Long-term all-cause and cause-specific mortality for four bariatric surgery procedures” published in The Obesity Society 2023, patients who underwent bariatric surgery had a lower death rate from cardiovascular disease (29%), cancer (43%), and diabetes (72%), when compared to the subjects who had not undergone bariatric surgery. As a result, the number of bariatric surgeries are rising which fuelling the general surgery devices market.

The incidences of colorectal cancer are rising worldwide which necessities the disease screening and endoscopic surgeries. According to WHO’s recent estimates, nearly 2 million cases of colorectal cancer were detected in 2020, making it the third most prevalent cancer form globally.

The advanced screening techniques and surgical procedures exists are reducing the number of death from this disease. For instance, robotic surgery has revolutionized the surgical management of colorectal cancer, and this technique is gaining popularity in the field of colorectal surgery as it provides accuracy and minimally invasive procedure.

What are the Factors Restraining Demand within the Global Market?

Lack of skilled professionals for emergency robotic surgeries is a key factor hampering the market.

  • According to a recent World Society of Emergency Surgery (WSES) 2022 study of 415 surgeons from 67 different countries, only 28.7% of respondents used laparoscopy for primary emergencies in more than 50% of patients. The reason for the less adoption was analysed as the lack of training sessions and less experience for the procedures.

High surgical site infections incidence (SSI) with high morbidity rate is also hampering the market growth. As per the Centre of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), SSI continue the significant cause of the illness, lengthy hospitalization and decease.

  • Around 3% rise in the SSI’s associated to all NHSN surgical procedures compared to the prior year was recorded in 2021, according to the HAI data findings for 2021 published in the National Healthcare Safety Network’s HAI Progress Report.

Country-wise Insights

What Makes the USA a Large Market for General Surgery Devices?

The USA dominates the global market with a total share of around 28.3% in 2022 and is expected to continue the same growth trend throughout the forecast period.

The rising prevalence of gynecologic cancer in the country is aiding the market's growth. For instance, cervical cancer is the most common cause of cancer-related death in American women. However, there has been a significant drop in the death rate due to the advanced surgical procedures in the country.

The use of laparoscopic surgery for cervical cancer treatment has grown in the United States, owing primarily to the benefits of faster recovery, fewer wound issues, and a higher quality of life. Therefore, the general surgery devices market is being driven by the country's increasing acceptance of laparoscopy procedures.

What is the Scenario of China within the General Surgery Devices Market Space?

China held market share of 49.7% in 2022 in the East Asia general surgery devices market, owing to the increased adoption of remote surgeries. Innovations in medical technology is sky rocketing in the country leading to the adoption of remote surgery and robotic surgical treatments resulting in the market growth.

  • For instance, according to the report by Robotic Report, surgeons from Beijing Jishuitan Hospital used Telecom’s 5G to remotely operate a surgery on a patient from Yantai to Shandong Province, which is some 316 miles southeast of the Chinese capital.

Similar to this, in 2019, a thoracic remote surgery was performed in China at a distance of 13 km from two different hospitals, according to the same source.

What Makes United kingdom a Highly Lucrative Market for General Surgery Devices?

United kingdom holds a share of around 21.3% in the European market in 2022 owing to the rising road injuries or accidents in the country. Each year, around one in ten people in the United Kingdom, receives a surgical treatment.

Postoperative mortality is declining steadily as surgical techniques become more precise in the region.

  • According to the Department of Transport's report titled "Reported roadway injuries in the United Kingdom, provisional estimates: year ending June 2021," there were a total of around 24,530 fatal or serious injury (KSI) casualties and 1,19,850 casualties of all severity in the year ending June 2021

As the frequency of injuries and accidents rises, the need for surgical equipment is predicted to rise, boosting the growth of the studied industry.
