Vaginal Slings Market Trends



  • Rising number of elderly women is driving the market growth


The market for vaginal slings is anticipated to increase in the future due to the rising number of elderly women. The senior population (65 years and over) is referred to as the female geriatric population. Vaginal slings are used to treat and control stress urine incontinence (SUI), which affects a section of the expanding female geriatric population. For instance, women made up 55% of the population aged 65 or over in October 2020, according to World Population Ageing 2020 Highlights, issued by the United Nations, a US-based intergovernmental organization. They currently account for 62% of those who are 80 or older. According to predictions, the proportion of elderly persons in the population would increase from 9.3% in 2020 to 16.0% in 2050. Therefore, the market CAGR for vaginal slings is expected to develop in the future due to the rising number of elderly women.


The creation of technologically sophisticated vaginal slings is a crucial trend that is becoming more and more popular in the vaginal sling market. To maintain their position in the vaginal sling industry, major firms are creating vaginal slings that are technologically advanced. For instance, US-based Caldera Medical, a maker of medical equipment, debuted Desara One in May 2020. It is a blue one incision sling system with completely integrated mesh for female stress urine incontinence that helps to reduce mesh roping, twisting, and ripping while maximizing connection strength. This innovative device is streamlined with an anchor-mesh transition that is made to lay flat under the urethra and is intended to lessen tissue injury and dissection. Thus, driving the vaginal slings market revenue.


Vaginal Slings Market Segment Insights


Vaginal Slings Method Insights


The vaginal slings market segmentation, based on method includes Retropubic Method, Transobturator Method and Others. The transobturator method segment dominated the market due to their lower risk of causing significant blood vessel, bladder, or intestine damage, ease of use, and effectiveness comparable to tension-free vaginal tape slings. For instance, single-incision mini-slings are a secure and reliable treatment for female urodynamic stress incontinence, according to a Pubmed article from November 2021. According to this study, the Solyx single-incision slings outperformed the MiniArc due to their better objective cure rate and lower chance of surgical failure. Transobturator sling benefits will therefore spur market expansion in the future.


Vaginal Slings Type Insights


The vaginal slings market segmentation, based on type, includes Tension-Free Vaginal Tape Slings and Others. The tension-free vaginal tape slings category generated the most income due to manufacturers' increasing interest in creating items like vaginal mesh and vaginal micro slings to address urine incontinence. Additionally, tension-free vaginal tape slings are widely used since they are secure, less invasive, and quick to complete.
