(Health-NewsWire.Net, August 30, 2022 ) Ablation Technology Market - Growth Driving Factors
The growing elderly population has also driven the incidence of target conditions and contributed to the demand for effective treatment. However, the reuse and reprocessing of devices in developed countries and unfavorable regulatory scenario are key factors limiting the growth of this market. Product recalls and therapeutic challenges related to the efficacy of ablation products are key challenges faced by industry players in the global ablation technology market.
Challenge: Reuse and reprocessing of devices
As per the FDA and EU guidelines, ablation catheters are labeled as single-use devices (SUDs). However, the high per-unit cost and limited reimbursement have led to reprocessing and reuse in hospitals with budget constraints. The cost incurred by a hospital/surgical center for reprocessing and reuse is less than 10% compared to the cost of a new ablation device, reducing the overall procedural cost by around 50%.
Germany is among the key European countries that allow the reuse of SUDs (including ablation catheters), provided the devices are reprocessed as per regulatory guidelines. Furthermore, the US has also looked favorably on reprocessing SUDs—according to current FDA clearances, fully leveraging single-use device reprocessing can save US healthcare more than USD 700 million (Source: MPO Summit, 2021).
Opportunity: Growth potential in emerging economies
Emerging markets, including India, China, Mexico, and Brazil, offer significant growth opportunities in the ablation technology market, owing to factors such as initiatives undertaken by stakeholders across these countries, low regulatory barriers for trade, continuous improvements in the healthcare infrastructure, growing patient population, the relatively low procedural cost for disease treatment (compared to developed countries), less stringent regulatory policies, low competition, and rising healthcare expenditure. Moreover, these regions have reported growth in the incidence and prevalence of lifestyle diseases such as cardiac diseases and cancer.
