Intubation Accessories: Introduction
- Intubation is a process, in which an endotracheal tube (ET) is inserted through the mouth and then into the airway. This procedure is done so that a patient can be placed on a ventilator to assist with breathing during anesthesia, sedation, or severe illness. The tube is then connected to a ventilator, which pushes air into the lungs and helps the patient to breath.
Key Drivers of Global Intubation Accessories Market
- Rise in prevalence of respiratory diseases and increase in the geriatric population propel are projected to drive the demand for intubation accessories during the forecast period
- The American Academy of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology estimated (2012) that over 100 million people will suffer from asthma across the world by 2025. According to the U.S. Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, Europe reported the highest prevalence of cystic fibrosis in 2012.
- According to the World Health Organization, the global geriatric population was around 524 million in 2010 and is anticipated to reach 1.5 billion by 2050. Moreover, the world is aging at a rapid pace, especially the developed countries such as the U.S., Germany, and Japan.
Supraglottic Devices Segment to Dominate Global Market
- In terms of product type, the global intubation accessories market can be divided into supraglottic devices, infraglottic devices, resuscitators, laryngoscopes, and others. The supraglottic devices segment can be split into oropharyngeal devices, naspharyngeal devices, laryngeal airway devices, and others. The infraglottic devices segment can be segregated into endotracheal tubes, tracheostomy tubes, and others.
- The supraglottic devices segment dominated the market in 2019 owing to high patient safety and easy accessibility
Anesthesia Segment to Lead Global Market
- Based on application, the global intubation accessories market can be divided into anesthesia, emergency medicine, and others
- The anesthesia segment dominated the market in 2019 due to high preference for these devices by surgeons and anesthesiologists during the surgical procedures
Hospitals to be Highly Attractive Segment
- In terms of end-user, the global intubation accessories market can be classified into hospitals, homecare, and others
- The hospitals segment is expected to account for major share of the global intubation accessories market by 2030 owing to increase in hospitalization for surgical procedures where anesthesia is administered. In these procedures, endotracheal tubes are used to maintain a patent airway and protect the lungs from aspiration.
North America to be Highly Attractive Market
- In terms of region, the global intubation accessories market can be segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa
- North America dominated the global market in 2019 due to rise in prevalence of respiratory diseases, increase in popularity of portable devices, and surge in preference for home health care devices and services
