Global Laparoscopic Devices Market


Wound healing is one of the most important processes, after surgery. Currently, the healthcare industry is facing many challenges with respect to wound healing (the process by which skin or other body tissue repairs itself). To address the same, Laparoscopic surgeries came into light, which is also known as minimally invasive surgery. Laparoscopic surgery belongs to a broader field of endoscopy. In general, laparoscopic surgery is a modern surgical technique where operations are performed through a small incision usually of 0.5 to 1.5 cm anywhere in the body. Laparoscopes (a long fiber optic cable system which allows examine and diagnose disease) are the key element in the laparoscopic surgery. In general, there are two types of laparoscopes: rigid rod lens system which is usually connected to a video camera and digital laparoscopes where the camera is placed at the end of the laparoscopic device. Scissors, probes, forceps, dissectors, retractors, hooks and more are the special surgical instruments used in laparoscopy.


Laparoscopy is used to find problems such as fibroids, adhesions, cysts, and infection. Tissue samples can be taken for biopsy through the tube (laparoscope). The objective is to lessen wound healing time, less pain, no blood loss along with less risk of infection. The laparoscopic surgeries have a number of advantages over traditional (open) surgery. Patients with a critical condition are treated more with laparoscopic procedures. The global laparoscopic devices market has been estimated to be valued at US$ 8,812.4 Mn in 2016 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of 7.5% over the forecast period 2017–2027.


Global Laparoscopic Devices Market Growth Influencer


Increasing cholecystectomy surgeries, growing demand for single incision along with increasing obesity rate is likely to drive the market for laparoscopic devices. Also, increasing preference for minimally invasive procedures and popularity of robot-assisted laparoscopy is fueling the laparoscopic devices market.  Majorly, the laparoscopic surgeries are performed in developed economies such as the US and Europe but the trend is shifting towards developing regions too especially in China, India, and Japan. As the surgery allows surgeons to perform both complex and minor with a small cut in the body. Due to smaller incisions, the surgery allows reduced pain, hemorrhaging, along with shorter recovery time. The other factor affecting the growth of the market the rise in technological advancements, increasing efficiency and safety of procedures, stringent government rules and regulations, rise in disposable income and increasing health awareness is escalating demand for laparoscopic devices. However, lack of skilled surgeons along with high costs of laparoscopic devices & procedures is some of the constraints for the global laparoscopic devices market.
