Coronary Stent Market Size

Coronary Stent Market Analysis

The Coronary Stent Market size is estimated at USD 7.41 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 9.13 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 4.25% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

Due to the high infection rate and lockdown regulations brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, surgical procedures have been affected. Additionally, patients with cardiovascular diseases have experienced delays in diagnosis and treatment as a result of fewer people visiting hospitals and diagnostic facilities, which has affected the coronary stent market. For instance, according to a March 2022 research study published in the National Library of Medicine, there was a 52.7% reduction in adult cardiac surgery volume and a 65.5% reduction in elective cases between February 2020 to January 2021, which indicates the negative impact of COVID-19 on the cardiac surgical procedures. However, as the COVID-19 cases subside, the market started to recover, leading to an increase in the number of surgeries. For instance, in December 2021, a press release published by the Albanian Daily News stated in the 8 months of 2021, the cases treated in cardiac surgery have increased by 11% compared to the same period in 2020, according to data from the monitoring report of the Ministry of Health. Thus, subsiding COVID-19 cases led to an increasing number of heart surgeries which increased the adoption of coronary stents. Similarly, various companies were engaged in new product development which also contributed to the market growth. For instance, in May 2021, amg International GmbH received European CE mark approval for its second fully biodegradable product, the UNITY-B balloon expandable biodegradable biliary stent (BEBS) for endoscopic use. Thus, owing to the product launches and approvals, the market for coronary stents is expected to witness growth as it would increase the availability of advanced products which are expected to increase the adoption and thus fuel the market growth.

The rising incidence of coronary artery diseases (CADs), which occur when there is a buildup of plaque in the artery created a demand for percutaneous coronary intervention treatments using stents which is the main driver anticipated to fuel expansion in the coronary stent market. For instance, according to a report released in February 2022 by the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada, 750,000 people in the country are living with heart failure, 100,000 people are diagnosed with the condition each year, and it is anticipated that by 2030, the healthcare costs related to heart failure in Canada will amount to up to USD 2.8 billion annually. Therefore, the market under study is anticipated to experience rapid expansion throughout the forecast period due to the large number of cardiac patients and the rising economic burden caused by heart failure in the nation. Additionally, it is projected that the increased prevalence of CAD risk factors, such as age, hypertension, diabetes, and others, will support the market's growth throughout the projection period.

Other factors that are projected to significantly impact the growth of the coronary stent market include the expanding older population around the world and the advancement of stent technology and materials. The senior population (defined as people 65 years of age and over) is more prone to various chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), which require surgical intervention procedures to treat the disease since CVDs can lead to plaque buildup in the arteries and obstruct them. For instance, as per the November 2021 report published by the Asian Pacific Observatory on Health Systems and Policies, by 2050, about one-fourth population of the Asia-Pacific region will be 60 years or older due to the decreasing fertility rate in the region, and increasing longevity which is further expected to increase the burden of the cardiovascular diseases and thus creating demand for the effective and advanced treatment procedures that also includes stents implantation and lead market towards growth. Thus, the growing global geriatric population and CVDs are expected to increase the demand for stents in percutaneous coronary intervention procedures and propel the studied market toward growth.

Additionally, it is anticipated that the launch of new products and improvements in stent technology made by the region's leading market participants will accelerate the market's growth. For instance, Transluminal introduced the VIVO ISAR, its most recent dual drug polymer-free coated stent (DDCS), in several foreign regions, including Europe, in April 2022. Therefore, it is anticipated that such product introductions will accelerate market growth throughout the forecast period.

However, the high number of product recalls, and stringent regulatory approval processes for coronary stents are expected to restrain the growth of the studied market over the forecast period.
