Handheld Surgical Devices Trends



  • The growing prevalence of chronic disorders, such as cardiovascular, neurological, urological, and infectious diseases fuels market growth


Chronic diseases such as cardiovascular, neurological, urological, and infectious diseases are increasing globally. Heart disorders are becoming more common than other chronic diseases due to a lack of physical activity, being overweight, smoking, poor nutrition, or having a family history. Furthermore, diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia are all risk factors for cardiovascular disease. For instance, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), approximately 20.1 million adults aged 20 and older had coronary artery disease in 2020. People over the age of 60 are at a higher risk of developing diseases such as cardiovascular, orthopedic, and neurological issues. Some people with these conditions or diseases have to undergo surgery. Therefore, an increase in cardiovascular, orthopedic, and neurological issues is expected to boost the demand for handheld surgical devices. The use of high-quality devices by surgeons is a constant priority in order to execute surgeries efficiently and quickly without compromising the health of the patient. Therefore, variables that are causing a surge in the need for handheld surgical devices include the rising prevalence of chronic conditions like cardiovascular, neurological, urological, and infectious diseases.


Handheld Surgical Devices Segment Insights


Handheld Surgical Devices Product Type Insights


The Handheld Surgical Devices Market segmentation, based on product type, includes graspers, retractors, mechanical cutters, suction tips and tubes, irrigation and injection needs, scopes and probes, sutures, forceps, tweezers, and others. The forceps segment held the majority share in the market in 2022. Surgical forceps are grasping-type surgical devices used for clamping, tweezing, and applying pressure during surgeries and other procedures. They can have either tweezer-style handles or ring handles used to hold or grasp tissue, dressings, or other objects. There are two primary types of surgical forceps, including locking forceps and non-locking forceps. Surgical forceps are important handheld surgical devices commonly made of high-grade carbon steel.


Handheld Surgical Devices Application Insights


The Handheld Surgical Devices Market segmentation, based on application, includes orthopedic surgery, ophthalmology, cardiology, wound care, urology and gynecology surgery, plastic surgery, thoracic surgery, neurosurgery and others. The orthopedic surgery segment dominated the market in 2022. There is an increasing number of orthopedic surgeries around the globe. Knee and hip replacements are some of the most commonly performed and effective surgeries around the globe. For instance, according to the American College of Rheumatology, over 450,000 hip replacement surgeries and around 790,000 total knee replacement surgeries are performed per year in the US. These increasing numbers of orthopedic surgeries are creating demand for orthopedic handheld surgical devices worldwide.


Handheld Surgical Devices End User Insights


The Handheld Surgical Devices Market segmentation, based on end user, includes hospitals & clinics, ambulatory surgical centers and others. The hospital & clinics segment dominated the market in 2022. A majority of the people in developing regions such as China and India prefer hospitals & clinics as advanced treatment for various chronic diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, cancer, and others. According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention in 2019, the prevalence of chronic diseases in adults was around 60% globally, and it is reportedly much higher among elderly people. It is estimated that about 70% of adults will die of one or more chronic diseases. Handheld surgical devices are used in various surgical applications for these chronic diseases. The rising prevalence of cardiovascular and other chronic disorders has further driven the growth of the segment.
