The growth of the silicone based catheters market is attributed to the growing prevalence of urinary incontinence and the increasing number of surgical procedures. However, alternative treatment methods for urinary incontinence restricts the market growth.

Market Insights
Increasing Number of Surgical Procedures

The incidence of chronic diseases, such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), cancer, stroke, bladder cancer, prostate cancer, and kidney diseases, is increasing across the world. As per the World Health Organization (WHO), cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of mortality and result in the deaths of ~17.9 million people every year globally. Moreover, according to the International Diabetes Federation's Diabetes Atlas 9th edition 2019, ~463 million adults aged 20–79 years had diabetes in 2019, and the number is projected to reach 700 million by 2045. Also, according to the data published by the Obesity and Metabolic Surgery Society of India in 2020, the number of bariatric surgeries increased by ~86.7% in India during 2014–2018. In addition, as per the study published by the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery, in 2019, ~252,000 weight loss surgeries were performed in the US.

In recent years, there have been considerable developments in the field of medicine. The high prevalence of chronic conditions increases the number of surgical procedures, which propels the demand for urinary catheterization. Silicone based catheters are used to keep the bladder empty during and after the surgical procedure. In urological surgery or other surgery on contiguous structures of the genitourinary tract, the prolonged duration of the surgery, usage of large-volume infusions or diuretics during surgery, and need for monitoring of intraoperative urinary output are the major factors increasing the demand for silicone based catheters.

According to a report published by the Lancet Commission on Global Surgery (2015), ~28–32% of the disease burden can be attributed to surgically treatable conditions globally, and 143 million additional surgical procedures are required to reduce mortality every year. The increasing awareness of the patient population is also driving the demand for surgical procedures to treat sudden unmet medical conditions, which is expected to propel the growth of the silicone based catheters market in the coming years.
