However, complications related to catheters and the presence of substitutes may hinder the growth of the market.

Market Overview:

Catheters are medical devices that can be injected into the body to treat illness or perform a surgical procedure. By changing and modifying the way catheters are manufactured, it is possible to adapt catheters for cardiovascular, urologic, gastrointestinal, neurovascular, and ophthalmic applications. Catheters are made from different materials and, therefore, can be left in place for many weeks. Various polymers are used in the manufacture of catheters, including silicone rubber, nylon, polyurethane, polyethylene terephthalate (PET), latex, and thermoplastic elastomers. Silicone is one of the most popular implantable options because it is inert and will not react to body fluids and a variety of medical fluids that it may come into contact with. Catheterization is a basic, common procedure performed along with various other medical procedures such as angioplasty, cardiac electrophysiology, and neurosurgery that use catheters. There are different types of catheters on the market, including cardiovascular catheters, neurovascular catheters, urinary catheters, intravenous catheters, and specialty catheters. In addition, among the catheters mentioned above, the cardiovascular catheter is the most commonly used.

Market Driver:

Rising Number Of Cases of Chronic Ailments Drive Global Catheters Market

According to the Brain Aneurysm Foundation, as of March 2021, approximately 500,000 deaths are caused by brain aneurysms worldwide each year, and half of these individuals are 50 years old or younger. The annual rupture rate is about 8-10 people per 100,000 or about 30,000 people in the United States. Therefore, with the increasing prevalence of neurovascular diseases, the demand for neurovascular catheter devices is also expected to increase. Cardiovascular, urological, and neurological diseases have been among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality rates worldwide over the past three decades. People who perform sedentary jobs are more likely to develop chronic conditions such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), urological diseases (including end-stage renal disease or end-stage renal disease), and other diseases. According to the American Heart Association, around 19 million deaths worldwide were attributed to cardiovascular disease in 2021. Furthermore, it was estimated that 244 million people were living with ischemic heart disease (IHD) worldwide in 2021. The rise in cardiovascular disease will increase the number of hospitalizations and medical procedures, which in turn is expected to drive the adoption of catheters.

One of the most serious impacts of this trend is kidney failure, which is most commonly caused by chronic diseases such as high blood pressure and diabetes. Urinary tract infections, lupus, polycystic kidney disease, glomerulonephritis, and other kidney abnormalities are the most common causes of kidney problems. Poor lifestyle choices, including inadequate physical exercise, excessive alcohol consumption, smoking, obesity, and inconsistent dietary habits, are some of the causes of the increase in cardiovascular and neurovascular diseases. As these diseases spread, more and more people will need to use catheters, increasing demand over the forecast period. Hence, the rising number of cases of chronic ailments is driving the global catheters market growth.

Segmental Analysis:

Based on type, the catheters market is segmented into cardiovascular catheters, intravenous catheters, urology catheters, specialty catheters, and neurovascular catheters. The cardiovascular catheters segment held a larger market share in 2022. However, the market for urology catheters segment is anticipated to register a higher CAGR during 2022–2031 owing to the use of urological catheters increases due to the increasing prevalence of end-stage renal disease, kidney problems, and urinary tract infections.

The significant market share of cardiovascular catheters is due to several advantages that the catheters offer for chronic diseases. The catheters provide minimally invasive access to the vascular systems, reducing the need for open surgical procedures. The cardiovascular catheter segment is divided into electrophysiology catheters, percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty balloon catheters (PTCA), intravascular ultrasound (IVUS catheters), percutaneous transluminal angioplasty catheters (PTA), and others include guide catheters, angiography catheters, and pulmonary artery catheters. Cardiovascular catheters help with diagnostic purposes, such as angiography, in which a contrast agent is injected through the catheter to visualize blood vessels and assess blood flow. This allows healthcare professionals to diagnose and treat a wide range of cardiovascular diseases, improving patient outcomes and reducing the need for more invasive surgical procedures.

In addition, the urology catheter segment is divided into dialysis catheter and urinary catheter. The dialysis catheter segment is divided into hemodialysis catheter and peritoneal catheter. The urinary catheter segment is divided into a Foley catheter, an intermittent catheter, and an external catheter. The urinary catheters were used for surgical purposes, and the demand was partly affected by the temporary postponement of various elective surgeries. In addition, according to the study titled "Prevalence and associated factors of urinary incontinence among women living in China: a literature review," published in October 2021, approximately 43-349 million Chinese women were suffering from urinary incontinence (UI). The rising prevalence of urinary incontinence and the increasing number of surgical procedures are the major factors driving the demand for urology catheters, thereby fueling the growth of the segment.

Regional Analysis:

The most developed market for catheters is in North America. Chronic diseases are becoming more common, government policies are supporting them, awareness is developing, competent, qualified doctors are available, and there are well-established healthcare facilities, all contributing to regional growth. In addition, increasing private research funding for innovative device R&D activities has a positive impact on the market expansion of this region. Other factors driving market expansion include a well-established healthcare infrastructure and an increase in lifestyle-related chronic diseases. The market rise in North America is partly due to an increasing number of patients undergoing surgical procedures and greater awareness of minimally invasive catheterization techniques.

Europe is the second largest region. Europe's robust healthcare system has transitioned from inpatient to outpatient care due to the increase in companies offering catheters. The market growth is expected to be largely influenced by the growing demand of the senior population for better healthcare facilities and the increasing interest of patients in less invasive procedures. The rapidly growing older population in this region is predicted to suffer from chronic diseases such as incontinence, peripheral vascular disease, and heart problems, and Europe's population is highly reliant on publicly supported health services.

The fastest-growing region is Asia Pacific. This is because kidney and cardiovascular problems are more common, medical facilities are better, and insurance policies are available. The key growth engines in Asia Pacific are China and India, while Japan's population is aging rapidly. Furthermore, China and India are projected to grow the fastest during the forecast period. However, a shortage of nephrologists and cardiac surgeons could hinder the industry's growth.
