Moreover, the devices are also utilized during cardiovascular and neurovascular surgeries.

Micro Catheter and Micro Guidewires Market Overview

Among the most prevalent CVDs are aortic aneurysms, heart failure, stroke, rheumatic heart disease, and peripheral artery disease. A few major contributing factors to the rising prevalence of CVDs worldwide include the adoption of poor diets, tobacco use, sedentary lifestyles, and drunkenness. The World Health Organization (WHO) states that cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death worldwide. Additionally, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) projected that, in the US, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) account for one death every 36 seconds on average in 2020. Furthermore, the nation reports an estimated 850,000 incidents of heart attacks annually, per the same study.

Furthermore, 121.5 million adults in the US—roughly half of the adult population in the US—struggle with cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), according to American Heart Association (AHA) 2019 estimates. In addition, 0.6 million fatalities in the UK were attributed to cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), as per research released by the British Heart Association in 2020. The same study also indicated that the country's total mortality from CVDs was primarily attributable to chronic rheumatic heart disease and diseases of the circulatory system. The European Cardiovascular Disease Statistics 2019 report that over 1.8 million fatalities in the European Union (EU) and 3.9 million deaths in Europe are attributed to cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) annually. Additionally, a 2020 study that was published in the Journal of Lancet Public Health estimates that CVDs account for almost 4.0 million deaths in China annually. The rising global prevalence of CVDs significantly increases the number of cardiac operations performed. For example, a 2020 study by the Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) found that TAVR surgeries are significantly increasing in the United States.

Micro Catheter and Micro Guidewires Market Drivers and Opportunities

Increasing Incidence of Neurovascular Diseases Boosting Demand for Micro Catheter and Micro Guidewires

The constant flow of nutrients and oxygen, provided by arteries and veins, is vital to the neurovascular system. Any flaw in the system can hinder the brain's ability to operate and might potentially be fatal because the brain depends on oxygen and nutrients to function. Brain tumors, ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke, brain aneurysms, and vascular malformations are a few common neurovascular illnesses, diseases, or disorders.

The prevalence of neurological illnesses has dramatically increased in recent years. One example of a neurovascular disease is cerebral aneurysm. Globally, this condition is becoming far more common. As a result, its prevalence has sharply increased worldwide. Every year in the United States, brain aneurysm rupture affects around 30,000 people. Every eighteen minutes, a brain aneurysm ruptures. In the nation, there are roughly 8–10 cases of brain rupture for every 100,000 persons annually. Thus, the market for microcatheters and microguidewires is growing as a result of the increased incidence of cerebral aneurysms.

Growing Number of Product Approvals and Launches – An Opportunity in Micro Catheter and Micro Guidewires Market

Micro catheter and micro guidewire demand is increasing as a result of new devices' expanded functionality and technological advancements. The CE approved Transit Scientific's XO CrossQ Microcatheter platform in March 2021. Better functioning is provided by the innovative non-tapered design of the new microcatheter. Better torque responsiveness, trackability, and additional pushability levels are also provided by the new platform during a surgical process. Moreover, Baylis Medical declared in January 2021 that the JLL electrophysiological microcatheter would be available in the European market. With the advent of the catheter, doctors can now access difficult-to-reach places within the heart.  Additionally, Insight Lifetech's TruePhysio Rapid Exchange FFR microcatheter was granted CE clearance in June 2020. For precise treatments, the recently introduced catheter works with any 0.014" guidewire. Additionally, Sniper K-tip microcatheter under sniper balloon occlusion microcatheter was introduced by Embolx, Inc. in May 2019. This recently released microcatheter is specifically made for the process of arterial embolization. Additionally, the FDA approved Scientia Vascular's Zoom Wire 14 guidewire in August 2020. The novel gadget has the ability to enter the nervous system during ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes, as well as other related vascular procedures. Therefore, throughout the forecast period, the increasing number of product releases and approvals is anticipated to present profitable prospects for the growth of the micro catheter and micro guidewires market.
