Pneumatic Tourniquets Market Analysis
The pneumatic tourniquets market is anticipated to witness a CAGR of nearly 7.1% during the forecast period (2022-2027).
COVID-19 has created a global public health emergency that has affected almost every business and industry. The long-term effects are projected to have an impact on the industry growth during the forecast period. Limitations on elective surgical procedures and disruption of the supply chain during lockdown have affected the market for surgical procedures worldwide and impacted the market negatively.
An article published in December 2021 titled 'WALANT technique versus locoregional anesthesia in the surgical management of metacarpal and phalangeal fractures: Lessons from the Covid-19 crisis, the Covid-19 pandemic' mentioned that Wide Awake Local Anesthesia No Tourniquet (WALANT) is an anesthetic method that enables the use of a local injection of anesthetic and epinephrine, avoiding the use of a tourniquet. This WALANT proved to be a safe and effective method in hand fracture surgery, ensuring access to surgical care in the Covid-19 perspective. To avoid the spread of the virus, care centers have approached alternatives that impacted the studied market negatively.
However, the increasing number of orthopedic and plastic surgeries performed, the surge in accidental injuries and falls, and the subsequent rise in the prevalence of degenerative bone diseases have driven the studied market growth in recent years. For instance, 'Hospital Accident & Emergency Activity, 2020-21', provided by National Health Services (NHS), states that in the year 2020-21, there were 14.4 million attendances in Accident and Emergency (A&E) departments in NHS hospitals. This increasing burden of accident emergency admissions is anticipated to increase the demand for wound care surgeries, hence driving the demand for pneumatic tourniquets for bloodless and dry surgical procedures. This is expected to boost the growth of the studied market.
Furthermore, pneumatic tourniquets are routinely and safely used in limb surgeries throughout the world. The application of these tourniquets alters normal physiology. The use of these tourniquets is a common practice in orthopedic and plastic surgeries. The increase in plastic surgery and other augmentation procedures is anticipated to drive intravenous regional anesthesia (IVRA), driving the growth of the studied market.
Moreover, recent acquisitions and strategic steps taken by major players are increasing the demand for pneumatic tourniquets. For instance, in 2020, Dessillions & Dutrillaux acquired Electro Concept Medical to pool the skills of research and development, production, and distribution. These strategic activities by major players in anticipated to drive the growth of the studied market.
However, the lack of skilled professionals to handle the systems during the surgery is anticipated to hinder the market growth over the forecast period.
