The portable and wearable dialysis devices market size is projected to reach US$ 6.29 billion by 2031 from US$ 3.63 billion in 2022. The market is expected to register a CAGR of 6.3% in 2023–2031. Technological advancements in novel dialysis devices are likely to remain a key portable and wearable dialysis devices market trend.
Kidney dialysis equipment is used in the treatment of patients with chronic kidney conditions. The equipment includes a dialyzer that filters out waste products as well as excess blood fluids when kidneys fail to perform their function adequately. Emerging portable dialysis devices offer a new generation of devices that could provide individuals with kidney failure more options to access a home-based, point-of-care treatment. The growing number of end-stage renal disease patients and the limited availability of organ donors are expected to favor the development of novel portable and wearable devices.
As highlighted by the Nation Kidney Foundation, 22,817 people in America received a kidney transplant in 2020; however, over 100,000 Americans are still waiting for a kidney transplant. Most patients awaiting a kidney transplant are surviving on long and unwieldy dialysis treatments multiple times a week. The limited availability of kidney donors upsurges the adoption and awareness of wearable and portable devices for treating end-stage kidney disease (ESKD).
CKD is associated with a high risk of heart diseases and ESKD and has emerged as one of the most prominent causes of death in recent times. As per an article published in ScienceDirect in April 2022, CKD is a progressive disease affecting over 10% of the population worldwide, representing over 800 million individuals. Dialysis equipment is required to manage patients with impaired kidney function. The wearable and portable hemodialysis devices offer patients an improved quality of life under therapy by allowing them to continue their daily activities. Additionally, the rise in the aging population bolsters the growth of the portable and wearable dialysis devices market.
A paradigm shift from conventional hemodialysis to portable and wearable devices has resulted in increased R&D investments for advancements in dialysis devices. Manufacturers are focusing on adopting growth strategies such as product innovation, product launches, approvals, government funding, and partnerships as their developmental strategies to maintain the competitive environment in the market. For instance, in September 2023, AWAK Technologies had over $20 million in Series B funding. The Singapore-based medical technology company develops regenerative dialysis technology for end-stage renal disease. The proceeds were co-led by Lion X Ventures and Vickers Venture Partners, with the other key investors with multibillion-dollar assets under management in the healthcare sector. The funds will help AWAK complete its clinical trial, improve its product portfolio, and move closer to conducting a pivotal US-based trial before launching in the market. Such investments are likely to bring future opportunities for the Portable and Wearable Dialysis Devices market.
Key segments that contributed to deriving the portable and wearable dialysis devices Market analysis are product type and end user.
The geographic scope of the Portable and Wearable Dialysis Devices Market report is mainly divided into five regions: North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, Middle East & Africa, and South & Central America.
North America has dominated the portable and wearable dialysis devices market. Factors such as the increasing prevalence of ESKD, rising adoption of peritoneal dialysis treatments in home settings, and the presence of leading market players in the region propel regional growth. According to the United States Renal Data System (USRDS) data report, the number of individuals with ESRD peaked at 808,330 in 2019, 107% more than in 2000. It slightly decreased to 807,920 in 2020. Additionally, between 2010 and 2020, the proportion of dialysis patients who received treatment at home increased from 6.8% to 13.3%. Moreover, the market will likely experience growth opportunities in Canada and Mexico due to growing medical tourism and increasing product launches. Asia Pacific is anticipated to grow with the highest CAGR in the coming years.
