Current Scenario Of The Global Hemodialysis Catheters Market

Hemodialysis is a medical procedure to remove fluid and waste products from the blood and correct electrolyte imbalances. It is also called an artificial kidney. Hemodialysis is used to treat both acute and chronic kidney failure. Hemodialysis catheters are artificially indwelling transcutaneous conduits used to access the intravascular space or the intraperitoneal space for renal replacement therapy (RRT). There are two types of catheters non – tunneled and tunneled. The non – tunneled catheters are used for short – term extracorporeal renal replacement therapy, it is inserted with the help of ultrasound guidance. 

MARKET DRIVERS

The growing incidence of ESRD and an increasing number of chronic kidney disorders are majorly expanding the global hemodialysis catheters market growth.

The global hemodialysis catheters market growth is attributed to the increase in the prevalence of end-stage renal diseases (ESRD) and rises in the number of patients suffering from chronic kidney disorders. Also, rising awareness about blood infections is driving the Hemodialysis catheter market globally. The growing number of patients suffering from diabetes and hypertension is more likely to globally fuel the chronic hemodialysis catheter market. In addition, Technological advancements in hemodialysis catheters and dialysis equipment and the rise in demand for hemodialysis amongst chronic kidney disorders further improve the market growth.Furthermore, the demand is expected to grow due to a lack of available kidney donors for transplantation and technical advancements in dialysis equipment. Hemodialysis catheters are designed to fulfill the health needs of patients undergoing hemodialysis, infusion, apheresis, central venous pressure control, and those receiving high-pressure contrast injections. However, the insertion of intravascular products, especially catheters, is the leading cause of health-care-associated bloodstream infections, which is expected to push the market for hemodialysis catheters. According to many clinical trials, optimal placement of the catheter tip inside the right atrium improves the efficiency and stability of hemodialysis catheters.In addition, the scarcity of kidney donors raises the need for hemodialysis from CKD patients all over the world. As a result, the demand for hemodialysis catheters grows. According to the American Kidney Fund's kidney disease estimates, more than 31 million people in the United States, or 10% of the adult population, have chronic kidney disease. With age, the chances of developing CKD increase. Rising R&D expenditure for developing new hemodialysis products and the rise in preference for home hemodialysis (HHD) treatment, and increasing investments by government and private organizations encourage market growth.The death rate due to kidney diseases is increasing across the world. According to WHO, around 10 million people die every year from kidney disease. Changes in lifestyle and rise in several obesity cases, hypertension, and diabetes patients propel the market growth. An increase in the awareness about the benefits of dialysis products is boosting the hemodialysis catheters market growth. There is continuous development in technology related to dialysis. 

MARKET RESTRAINTS

Some of the patients experience side effects such as low blood pressure, anemia, muscle cramps, and sleep problem, which is a significant factor hampering the market growth.

Lack of proper knowledge over the latest technologies, especially in underdeveloped countries, further impedes market growth.Shortages hamper the market's development in medical coverage for dialysis procedures in developed countries and a rise in the risk of blood poisoning and thrombosis. Low blood pressure, anemia, muscle cramps, and sleep problems are among the side effects of certain patients, which is a major factor impeding business development. Market growth is further hampered by a lack of proper awareness of the latest technology, especially in developing countries.
