A vascular access device (VAD) is a medical device used to provide access to a patient's veins for the delivery of intravenous (IV) medications, infusion therapy, and extracorporeal therapies like apheresis. The various types of VADs include peripheral venous catheters (PVCs), central venous catheters (CVCs), peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs), and implanted ports.
Moreover, these devices can be short-term or long-term, and their choices depend on the duration of medication administration, the patient's anatomy, and the setting. VADs are essential for patients who require prolonged treatment, such as chemotherapy, and can reduce the discomfort and stress of repeated needle sticks.
The COVID-19 pandemic burdened the world economy, increased dependency among nations, and presented challenges to national governments. It caused production challenges and prompted concerns among economies and businesses. The demand for CVCs, particularly antimicrobial ones, surged due to the high need for vascular access in critically ill COVID-19 patients. Thus, this segment witnessed a temporary increase in sales during the COVID. Moreover, the heightened focus on preventing hospital-acquired infections during the pandemic led to a rise in the demand for catheters with antimicrobial properties.
However, COVID-19 affected the need for medical equipment in several ways. While the demand for the devices used to treat COVID-19 patients in intensive care increased, the demand for other devices suffered due to delayed or canceled treatments.
According to the study titled ‘The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on vascular surgery: Health care systems, economic, and clinical implications’ published in the National Library of Medicine in July 2021, in ambulatory care and outpatient clinics, 89.2% of vascular surgeons reported changes to their practice. Clinical volume declined by 96.5%, surgical volume declined by 71.7%, and the daily number of inpatient consultations reduced to just 1.81 per day.
According to the report published by the World Health Organization in 2021, cardiovascular diseases or CVDs are one of the major causes of death across the globe. About 17.9 million deaths or 32% of all deaths worldwide in 2019 caused by CVDs. Out of these deaths, 85% were caused by heart attack and stroke.
According to the World Heart Federation Vision 2030, the number of CVD deaths is projected to rise from an estimated 18.9 million in 2020 to over 22.2 million in 2030 and 32.3 million in 2050.
The number of patients suffering from chronic kidney disease (CKD) is expected to increase in the coming years, with the growing prevalence of diabetes, as diabetes is a major risk factor for CKD. The growing prevalence of these lifestyle diseases, particularly CKD and CVDs, is expected to contribute to the vascular access devices market growth, as tunneled and non-tunneled catheter devices are widely used in dialysis procedures and the treatment of various cardiovascular diseases.
Minimally invasive surgery typically involve smaller incisions or entry points compared to traditional open surgeries. This leads to reduced pain and discomfort for patients, making such procedures favorable.
Several benefits of minimally invasive procedures include few incisions, low risk of infection, and a quick recovery period. However, physicians recommend minimally invasive procedures to treat chronic disorders. Thus, the adoption of these surgeries is increasing. For instance, according to the article published in the Annals of Medicine and Surgery Journal in October 2021, multiple facets of the conventional surgical method have been replaced by minimally invasive surgery (MIS) in recent years, while gaining interest due to improved survival, fewer complications, and rapid recovery. Therefore, an increasing number of MIS is anticipated to propel the market in the coming years.
Vascular access devices are expensive and the price of these devices changes according to the type of vascular access device (VAD) used in a procedure. The price of these devices ranges from USD 150 to USD 900 on average.
The cost to the physician for inserting a VAD range from USD 20 to USD 90 per hour. Vascular access treatments are expensive when a patient is admitted to the hospital, and complications such as occlusions or central catheter bloodstream infections drive up the cost of the procedure significantly.
According to the Canadian Association of Nurses in Oncology, in the US, a central catheter bloodstream infection increases the procedure price to more than USD 25,000. This high placement and maintenance price for vascular access devices (VADs) are expected to restrain the market during the forecast period.
Advances in material science, engineering, and manufacturing techniques have led to the development of vascular access devices with enhanced performance characteristics, such as increased durability, flexibility, and resistance to occlusion and infection.
Innovative design features, such as catheter coatings, antimicrobial properties, and needleless connectors, improve patient comfort and safety by reducing the risk of complications, such as infections and thrombosis, associated with vascular access devices.
Technological innovations enable the use of minimally invasive insertion techniques, such as ultrasound-guided and fluoroscopy-assisted procedures, which result in less trauma, faster recovery times, and reduced healthcare costs compared to traditional insertion methods.
