Surgical Staplers Market Size, Industry Analysis Report,
Regional Outlook from 2017 to 2024.: Global Market
Insights Inc.
Growing number of surgical procedures owing to increasing prevalence of chronic
diseases will drive Surgical Staplers Market over the forecast period. Increasing demand
for minimally invasive procedures owing to the associated decreased recovery and
hospitalization period will fuel growth. Staplers permit surgeons to endoscopically
secure internal wounds without the need of an open operative procedure. Sutures
which were traditionally used for wound closure were prone to leaks and separation,
therefore increasing preference of staplers over sutures will propel demand. Moreover,
issues pertaining to healing of sutures paved the way for surgical stapler development.
Benefits provided by surgical staplers such as higher speed and accuracy along with
evenness of wound closure will serve to be a high impact rendering factor. The
technique is also associated with a lower risk of infection and tissue reaction than
sutures. Technological advancements such as development of products which provide
real-time feedback and automated response to real-time data will escalate adoption.
The devices are used in various procedures such as general, thoracic, colorectal,
abdominal, cosmetic, gynecology and pediatric surgeries. Broad spectrum product
applications and product availability in various shapes such as circular, curved, linear
for performing specific operations will stimulate demand. However, high cost associated
with the device may restrain industry growth to some extent. Availability of alternative
wound closure technologies and advanced products such as sealants, hemostats, glues,
and anti-adhesives would impede growth. Complications associated with product use
include stapler failure or misfire, improper formation, separation of suture lines and
device becoming stuck in patient’s tissues.
Disposable surgical staplers held significant revenue share. The disposable devices are
generally made from plastic and are fitted with disposable cartridge for use on a single
patient. Increasing preference of medical professionals for using one-use devices owing
to their advantages such as low cost, lack of maintenance and higher safety will
stimulate demand. Disposable staplers are pre-sterilized and disposed after use
preventing the occurrence of infection in the case of improper re-sterilization.
