MARKET DRIVERS

“The introduction of technologically advanced surgical stapling devices is estimated to fuel the demand for surgical staplers market around the globe”

Technological advances in the surgical staplers and associated staples have predominantly impacted the adoption of surgical stapling devices among healthcare providers. The major players are focusing on reducing the diameter of the surgical stapling device to facilitate internal as well as external incision closure. Additionally, varying nob size and angle of the surgical stapling device enables the healthcare professional to perform laparoscopic surgeries with ease. These benefits are anticipated to boost the acceptance of surgical stapling devices compared to traditional suturing methods.

The introduction of powered surgical stapling device has facilitated to reduce the incision closure time after surgery leading to lower blood loss and further complication. It also enables the surgeon to reduce mechanical pressure during wound closure.

For instance, the powered surgical stapling device supports the patient during trauma injuries, where immediate wound closure is required to prevent blood loss. Clinically, the powered surgical stapling device has performed better in healing time and lower pain. These technological benefits offered by the surgical stapling devices are expected to drive the market growth.

“The increasing number of chronic diseases and surgeries are expected to drive the surgical stapling devices market growth”

Over the past decade, the developed and developing countries have witnessed a huge growth in the number of surgical procedures performed. The number of visits to ambulatory surgical centers has also experienced a hike over the past few years owing to increasing prevalence of chronic diseases like cancer.
