Urinary Catheters Market Analysis
The urinary catheters market is expected to register a CAGR of nearly 5.5% during the forecast period of 2022-2027.
A profound impact on the urinary catheter market is expected due to the COVID-19 scenario. As the number of cases is still on the rise, the demand for urinary catheters is also expected to increase since urinary catheters are used in some critically ill patients suffering from COVID-19. Thus, this is expected to impact the demand for urinary catheters positively.
The primary factors driving the growth of the urinary catheter market include the rising prevalence of urinary incontinence, the growing geriatric population, and technological advancement in the material used for catheters.
Increasing funding provides support for more innovative product launches in the market. For instance, in December 2020, Ingenion Medical Ltd received about GBP 100,000 funding from the Innovative UK to develop its product CymActive urinary catheter. It is a novel medical device that is designed for treating male patients suffering from urinary retention. Urinary incontinence is an underdiagnosed and underreported condition that is likely to increase with age and majorly affects the elderly population. Furthermore, as per the World Ageing Population report, in 2019, about 702.9 million people living were aged 65 years and above, and this number is expected to reach 1,548.9 million by 2050. Thus, this is expected to fuel the market growth.
