到 2030 年腦積水引流裝置市場預測:按產品類型、分流器類型、年齡層、最終用戶和地區進行的全球分析Hydrocephalus Shunt Market Forecasts to 2030 - Global Analysis By Product, Shunt Type, Age Group, End User and By Geography |
根據 Stratistics MRC 的數據,2023 年全球腦積水引流裝置市場規模為 3.222 億美元,預計在預測期內將以 6.1% 的年複合成長率成長,並在 2030 年達到 4.876 億美元。
臨床上用於治療涉及腦脊髓液過多的精神疾病的裝置稱為腦積水儲存腦積水引流裝置。顱內壓因子增大是顱骨的這種狀況的結果。這些設備收集體液有助於減輕大腦的壓力。分流器是一種透過手術植入的裝置,旨在將多餘的腦脊髓液從大腦轉移到身體的另一個位置,通常是腹腔,在那裡它可以被自然吸收。
根據美國生物化學與分子生物學學會2021年3月發表的論文,美國每年約有280萬人遭受創傷性腦損傷(TBI),其中約28萬人需要住院治療。
分流技術的進步
分流技術的進步包括可程式設計和可調節分流系統的開發、使用新材料來提高生物相容性和壽命,以及微創手術技術的引入。可程式設計分流器可在放置分流器後調整流量設置,從而更靈活地管理患者的水腦症。此外,將創新材料納入分流器設計可提高分流器性能並降低感染和閉塞等併發症的風險。
成本限制
水腦症的特徵是腦脊髓液在大腦中儲存,通常需要使用分流裝置進行手術干涉以緩解症狀。與分流創建相關的高昂成本,包括手術、裝置植入和持續維護,給患者和醫療保健提供者帶來了經濟負擔。但有限的保險覆蓋範圍,特別是在醫療保健基礎設施不足的地區,可能會使問題變得更加複雜,並延遲或拒絕獲得基本治療。
微創手術需求不斷成長
與傳統開顱手術相比,微創手術具有多種優勢,包括減少創傷、恢復時間更快、住院時間更短以及感染和出血等併發症的風險最小化。對於水腦症,通常需要植入分流器來管理過量的腦脊髓液儲存,微創方法提供了比傳統方法侵入性更小的替代方案。這些手術通常使用較小的切口、專用器械,有時還會使用內視鏡引導,以幫助外科醫生更精確地放置分流器並最大限度地減少對周圍組織的損害。
獲得治療的機會不足
水腦症指腦脊髓液在大腦中儲存,通常需要透過分流器進行手術治療以緩解症狀。然而,衛生基礎設施的差異,特別是在服務欠缺地區和開發中國家,限制了及時診斷、治療和後續護理的機會。有限的醫療設施、訓練有素的醫務人員和財政限制等挑戰加劇了這項挑戰。因此,許多水腦症患者沒有接受必要的分流手術或延遲手術,導致發病率和死亡率增加。
隨著世界各地的醫療保健系統投入資源對抗這場流行病,包括水腦症手術在內的擇期手術被推遲或取消,以優先考慮 COVID-19 患者並最大限度地降低感染風險。這導致分流器植入和置換的減少,導致市場低迷。此外,對非必要醫療程序的限制以及患者因擔心感染病毒而不願去醫院的情況進一步減少了需求。
預計在預測期內水腦症導管部分將是最大的
在預測期內,水腦症導管細分市場是市場上最大的細分市場,因為導管設計和材料的進步提高了分流系統的有效性和壽命,改善了患者的治療效果並減少了翻修手術的需求。先天性水腦症和正常水腦症等疾病的盛行率不斷增加,刺激了對有效治療方案的需求,導致世界腦積水引流裝置手術的增加。此外,導管製造的創新促進了微創技術的發展,使分流器置入手術更安全、更容易被病人接受。
腦室腹腔分流部分預計在預測期內年複合成長率最高
腦室分流部分預計將在預測期內實現盈利成長,因為它在治療水腦症(一種以腦室內腦脊髓液儲存為特徵的疾病)方面有效且廣泛採用。 VP 分流器提供了一種微創解決方案,將多餘的液體從腦室轉移到腹腔,然後自然吸收到體內。這種方法不僅可以緩解顱內壓,還有助於緩解與水腦症,如頭痛、噁心和認知障礙。
由於神經系統疾病盛行率上升、患者對微創治療方法的偏好、醫療成本上升以及導致分流技術進步的研發力度不斷加大等原因,北美的腦積水引流裝置市場正在成長,這是成長最快且成長最快的市場。 佔估計期間銷售額的最大佔有率。例如,醫療保險和醫療補助服務中心 (CMS) 預測 2022 年美國醫療保健支出將為 7.5%。預計 2023 年支出將首次超過 1 兆美元。
由於該地區醫療基礎設施的改善、手術數量的增加以及與政府擴大醫療設備組合的協議,預計亞太市場在預測期內將實現盈利成長。例如,2022年3月,日本和印度總理核准了一項五年財政計畫和420億美元的投資,以支持醫療設備製造合資企業。由於醫療成本不斷上升,印度醫療保健系統的服務組合正在從護理轉向疾病管理的預防保健。
According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Hydrocephalus Shunt Market is accounted for $322.2 million in 2023 and is expected to reach $487.6 million by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 6.1% during the forecast period. An apparatus used in clinical practice to help treat a mental illness involving excessive cerebrospinal fluid collection is referred to as a hydrocephalus shunt. An expanded intracranial pressing factor is the result of this condition in the skull. The fluid collection caused by these devices helps reduce stress in the brain. Shunts are surgically implanted devices designed to divert excess cerebrospinal fluid from the brain to another part of the body, typically the abdominal cavity, where it can be absorbed naturally.
According to an article published by the American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology in March 2021, in the United States, about 2.8 million people sustain a traumatic brain injury (TBI) every year, with some 280,000 resulting in hospitalizations.
Advancements in shunt technology
The advancements encompass a wide range of improvements, including the development of programmable and adjustable shunt systems, utilization of novel materials for improved biocompatibility and longevity, and the introduction of minimally invasive surgical techniques. Programmable shunts offer the ability to adjust flow settings post-implantation, providing greater flexibility in managing patients' hydrocephalus symptoms. Additionally, the integration of innovative materials into shunt designs enhances their performance and reduces the risk of complications such as infection and blockage.
Cost constraints
Hydrocephalus, a condition characterized by an accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain, often requires surgical intervention with shunt devices to alleviate symptoms. The high cost associated with shunt placement, including surgery, device implantation, and ongoing maintenance, poses financial burdens for patients and healthcare providers alike. However, limited insurance coverage, particularly in regions with inadequate healthcare infrastructure, further exacerbates the issue, potentially delaying or denying access to essential treatment.
Growing demand for minimally invasive surgical procedures
Minimally invasive techniques offer several advantages over traditional open surgeries, including reduced trauma, faster recovery times, shorter hospital stays, and minimized risk of complications such as infection and bleeding. In the context of hydrocephalus, where patients often require shunt implantation to manage excess cerebrospinal fluid buildup, minimally invasive approaches provide a less invasive alternative to traditional methods. These techniques typically involve smaller incisions, specialized tools, and sometimes even endoscopic guidance, allowing surgeons to place shunts with greater precision and minimal disruption to surrounding tissues.
Inadequate access to care
Hydrocephalus, a condition characterized by an accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid within the brain, often requires surgical intervention with shunts to alleviate symptoms. However, disparities in healthcare infrastructure, particularly in underserved regions and developing countries, limit access to timely diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up care. Factors such as limited healthcare facilities, insufficient trained medical personnel, and financial constraints contribute to this challenge. Consequently, many individuals with hydrocephalus lack access to essential shunt surgeries or experience delays in receiving them, leading to increased morbidity and mortality rates.
As healthcare systems worldwide redirected resources to combat the pandemic, elective surgeries, including those for hydrocephalus, were postponed or canceled to prioritize COVID-19 patients and minimize transmission risks. This led to a decrease in shunt implantations and replacements, resulting in a downturn in the market. Moreover, restrictions on non-essential medical procedures, coupled with patients' reluctance to visit hospitals due to fear of contracting the virus, further dampened demand.
The Hydrocephalus Catheter segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period
Hydrocephalus Catheter segment commanded the largest share of the market over the projection period as advancements in catheter design and materials have improved the efficacy and longevity of shunt systems, enhancing patient outcomes and reducing the need for revision surgeries. The increasing prevalence of conditions such as congenital hydrocephalus and normal pressure hydrocephalus is fueling demand for effective treatment options, leading to a rising number of hydrocephalus shunt procedures worldwide. Moreover, technological innovations in catheter manufacturing have allowed for the development of minimally invasive techniques, making shunt placement procedures safer and more accessible to patients.
The Ventriculoperitoneal Shunts segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
Ventriculoperitoneal Shunts segment is poised to witness profitable growth during the overcast period due to its effectiveness and widespread adoption in treating hydrocephalus-a condition characterized by the accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain's ventricles. VP shunts offer a minimally invasive solution by diverting excess fluid from the brain's ventricles to the peritoneal cavity, where it can be naturally absorbed by the body. This approach not only relieves intracranial pressure but also helps alleviate symptoms associated with hydrocephalus, such as headaches, nausea, and cognitive impairment.
Because of the rising prevalence of neurological disorders, patients' preference for less invasive procedures, rising healthcare costs, and improved research and development efforts leading to advancements in shunt technology, the hydrocephalus shunts market has grown most rapidly in North America, accounting for the largest revenue share over the extrapolated period. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), for instance, projected that in 2022, health spending in the United States would be 7.5%. The first time that spending is expected to surpass $1 trillion USD is in 2023.
Because of the region's improved healthcare infrastructure, rising number of surgeries, and government agreements to expand the medical device portfolio, the Asia Pacific market is expected to grow profitably over the projected period. For instance, the prime ministers of Japan and India approved a five-year financial plan and an investment of USD 42 billion in March 2022 to support a joint venture in medical equipment production. Due to rising healthcare costs, India's healthcare system is witnessing a shift in its service portfolio from nursing care to preventative care for disease control.
