Infusion Pump Market Growth Factors

Growing Prevalence of Chronic Diseases to Boost Market Growth

Infusion pumps provide important advantages over the manual delivery of fluids like the ability to administer the fluids in a very small dosage and at accurate programmed rates. In many cases like cancer and diabetic conditions, these pumps are used to deliver the medication to maintain drug level in the bloodstream at a steady state.

• According to the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2018, cancer was estimated to be the second most prominent cause of death globally and is responsible for about 9.6 million deaths. Cancer patients require chemotherapy which is to be delivered to the patients in a continuous manner which can be achieved by using the pump.


• Moreover, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in 2020, the prevalence of diabetes was estimated to be around 463 million cases worldwide and in the U.S., 34.2 million adults have diabetes which is 10.5% of the total population.

The insulin pumps are increasingly being preferred in the management of type 1 diabetes. These patients necessitate user friendly self-controlled pumps to achieve continuous medication delivery. Together, these factors are surging the infusion pump market growth across all regions.

Growing Demand for Ambulatory Pumps to Propel the Market Growth

Ambulatory pump is a significant means of drug delivery in a wide range of medical situations. They play a vital role in supplying analgesics, chemotherapy, TPN infusion, and other infusions to patients in both hospitals and home care settings.

Also, ambulatory infusion pumps are portable devices intended for patients requiring continuous infusion therapy, allowing them to maintain mobility while receiving treatment. Patients may wear a pump in the pouch or attach it to their clothing so that they can move on the hospital floor while being treated. These infusion pumps are frequently used during patient transport and home infusion therapy.

• For instance, as per the data provided by Elite Biomedical Solutions, LLC in December 2021, ambulatory pumps are lightweight and provide mobility for patients needing continuous IV infusions.

In developed countries, the shift to site of care management of chronic diseases for the reduction of cost burdens associated with hospitals-based management is likely to increase demand for portable pumps in near future.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

Stringent Regulations for the Production of Pumps to Restrain Market Growth

Increasingly stringent regulations regarding the production and incorporation of pumps slow down the approval process for new products. This factor is anticipated to restrain the market growth.

Moreover, increasing product recalls due to product errors are restricting the market growth. Also, the U.S. FDA has made a statement regarding the infusion pump recall. According to the FDA, more than 50,000 units of the Model 4000 syringe pumps received product recall for correction. These infusion pumps were distributed from November 2010 to July 2023.

• In August 2019, for example, Fresenius Kabi recalled Vigilant Agilia drug library and Volumat MC Agilia infusion pump due errors to an infusion alarm, low priority keep vein open (KVO), and multiple errors associated with software.
