Surgical Procedures Volume Market to Rise to 2.2 bn by 2023, Gynecology Procedures to Show Highest Growth Rate Transparency Market Research has published a new market report titled, “Surgical Procedures Volume Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast 2015 2023.� According to the report, the global surgical procedures volume market stood at 1.3 Bn procedures in 2014 and is estimated to reach 2.2 Bn procedures by 2023 at a CAGR of 5.6% from 2015 to 2023.
Technological advances have not only expanded the surgical market by offering innovative medical devices, but have also made the treatment process easier for surgeons. Minimallyinvasive surgeries entail shorter hospital stay, minimal incision, less post-surgery complications, and shorter recovery time. These advantages increase the number of patients opting for minimally-invasive surgeries. For instance, usage of MEMS is a growing trend in the cardiac pacemaker market. MEMS-built pacemakers are less invasive and cheaper. In April 2014, da Vinci Xi Surgical System, developed by Intuitive Surgical, Inc., would also support the growth of the Minimally-invasive surgeries. Outpatient minimally invasive surgery (MIS) techniques have increased rapidly in the U.S. MIS are less expensive as compared to open surgery, and it eliminates hospital stay and reduces risk of complications. The global surgical procedures volume market has been broadly segmented into cardiovascular, orthopedic, neurosurgery, ophthalmic, gynecology, and other procedures such as urology and dental. Based on procedure type, the ophthalmic procedures segment dominated the global surgical procedures volume market in 2014. Rising global geriatric population is a major factor driving the ophthalmic procedures segment. Ophthalmic procedures are further segmented into cataract surgery, refractive surgery, and glaucoma surgery. Cataract surgery held the largest share in the ophthalmic procedures segment.
