However, challenges persist in terms of maintenance requirements and ensuring compliance with evolving regulatory standards, particularly regarding circuit manufacturing and safety protocols. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year and the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
The increasing number of surgeries and medical emergency cases are notably driving market growth. The increasing incidence and prevalence of various chronic and lifestyle diseases, such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), bone-related diseases, thrombosis, liver diseases, and renal diseases, is increasing the number of emergency visits to hospitals for various diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. In certain cases, surgeries are recommended by physicians as a part of the treatment and management regimen for various medical conditions, such as CVDs, malignant tumors, and cancer.
Moreover, general anesthesia is used while performing heart, joint, lung, brain, and major artery surgeries. It is an essential procedure that is followed by medical practitioners, especially surgeons, to facilitate surgical procedures. The increasing number of surgeries spurs the demand for anesthesia breathing circuits during anesthesia delivery to patients during surgery. Therefore, a growing number of surgeries and emergency cases requiring the delivery of anesthesia is expected to increase the demand for anesthesia breathing circuits, which will boost the growth of the market in focus during the forecast period.
The adoption of latex-free and anti-microbial breathing circuits is an emerging trend in the market. Systematic disinfection of anesthesia breathing circuits is required to ensure that they do not become a vector for the cross-transmission of diseases. As a result, anesthesia breathing circuits that are made of an anti-microbial latex film could prevent pathogenic germs from growing on them. The addition of anti-microbial agents in anesthesia breathing circuits shows a comparable effect on the mechanical properties of natural rubber (NR) latex films. Inorganic metal oxides such as zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NP) may act as both an activator and an anti-bacterial. Therefore, adding anti-microbial agents, especially ZnO NP, might be a superior option to NR latex films.
However, due to the above benefits that they provide, the usage of latex-free and anti-bacterial breathing circuits has gained attention. Products without latex reduce the possibility of allergic reactions, leading to enhanced patient care. Drager, for instance, provides latex-free breathing circuits for the care of adult and infant patients. Therefore, such factors are expected to boost market growth during the forecast period.
The shortage of skilled anesthesiologists is a major challenge impeding market growth. Unlike other forms of anesthesia, including local anesthesia and nerve blocks, general anesthesia always needs to be delivered to patients under the supervision of a specialist anesthetist. This is because administering general anesthesia safely and reliably requires in-depth knowledge, technical skills, and awareness of the patient's vital parameters at the time of delivering anesthesia. In many countries, there is a severe shortage of anesthetists. Therefore, there is a need for adequately trained anesthetists to meet the demand in countries like Africa. For instance, African countries like Somalia and Central African Republic do not have trained anesthesiologists. These countries only have nurses with basic training to anesthetize patients.
Furthermore, access to trained anesthetists is further complicated by the uneven distribution of anesthesiologists in rural areas. The demand for anesthetists is increasing significantly due to the rising number of surgeries and the growing prevalence of chronic diseases and related risk factors. However, the lack of skilled and trained anesthetists is limiting the demand for anesthesia breathing circuits. These factors will hinder the growth of the market during the forecast period.
