Market Insights and Analyst View:

A stent is a tiny mesh tube usually used to open bodily passageways, such as weak or constricted blood arteries. The coronary arteries provide the heart with blood that is rich in oxygen, and constriction in these arteries is frequently treated with stents. Stents can also treat a constricted lung airway and an aneurysm, a protrusion in the arterial wall.

Stenting is a minimally invasive treatment, which means that it is not regarded as major surgery and does not necessitate a large, open incision in the body. Patients might need specific tests or medications before receiving a stent to get ready for the surgery. Stents can be composed of silicone, cloth, metal mesh, or a mix of these elements. Coronary artery stents are typically composed of metal mesh and occasionally have an additional covering. Larger arteries like the aorta are treated with fabric stents, sometimes known as stent grafts. Silicone is frequently used to make stents in the lungs' airways.

Growth Drivers and Opportunities:

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and other significant health issues that require constant monitoring and intensive care are increasingly common in the senior population. A few main risk factors for CVD are age, ethnicity, and family history. Using smoke, having high blood pressure (hypertension), having high cholesterol, being obese, being inactive, having diabetes, having a poor diet, and drinking alcohol are additional risk factors.

As a result, the world's aging population is expected to drive the cardiac output monitoring device market over the estimated period. According to World Health Organization (WHO) projections, by 2031, there will be 1.4 billion persons over 60 worldwide. With age, people become more susceptible to mobility limitations, as a result of which they require medical assistance or aid to avoid dependence on other individuals. The global population is aging rapidly, and the number of older adults is expected to increase significantly in the coming years. According to the 2021 Census, in the US, the population aged 65 and above surged nearly five times faster than the population growth during 1920–2021. In 2021, 55.8 million Americans, i.e., 16.8% of the total population, were aged 65 and above. Further, 13% of Brazil's population—more than 30 million seniors—is aged 60 or more; this population is expected to reach ~50 million by 2031, i.e., 24% of the country's population. Thus, the increasing geriatric population prone to CVD is a significant driver for the growth of the stents market.

On the other hand, the stringent regulation for approval presents a significant challenge hindering the growth of the stents market. Coronary stents are implantable devices placed percutaneously in one or more coronary arteries to maintain the patency. The various stages of the regulation of the stents require examination at each stage. The clinical evaluation of the drug-eluting stents aims to validate their safety and usefulness; the study design should fulfill both. The endpoints study for the other settings of coronary drug-eluting stents clinically important to the meaningful endpoints is strongly recommended. The information gathered in the post-marketing period is very important. The long-term (5-year) post-approval clinical follow-up is very important and recommended. Stringent regulations are required for the coronary stents for the proper functioning and accuracy of the coronary stents for treatment. These are likely to hamper the market growth soon.

Report Segmentation and Scope:

The “Global stents market” is segmented based on the product, material, type, end-use, and region. By product, the market is broadly segmented into vascular and non-vascular. The market is classified based on material, such as metal and polymer. The type segment of the market is broadly segmented into self-expandable and balloon-expandable stents. The market is classified into hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, and others based on end-use. The stents market based on geography is segmented into North America (US, Canada, and Mexico), Europe (Germany, France, Italy, UK, and Rest of Europe), Asia Pacific (Australia, China, Japan, India, South Korea, and Rest of Asia Pacific), Middle East & Africa (South Africa, Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Rest of Middle East & Africa), and South & Central America (Brazil, Argentina, and Rest of South & Central America).

Segmental Analysis:

Based on the product, the stents market is segmented into vascular and non-vascular. In 2022, the stents market revenue was mostly attributed to vascular stents, which had the largest share. The aging demographic base will contribute to the market's growth. For Instance, a report by the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs estimates that 727 million people worldwide will be 65 or older in 2021. Additionally, as people age, their hearts and blood arteries alter, raising their risk of heart attacks, heart failure, and coronary heart disease. This adds to the market share. Additionally, the segmental outlook will improve with the growing use of vascular stents in such treatments and illness treatment solutions.

The stents market is segmented into metal and polymer based on the product segment. The demand for metal stents rises due to their benefits, which include reduced rates of stent fracture, biocompatibility, and flexibility. This adds to the market's growth. In addition, incorporating biodegradable polymers into metal stents to address the drawbacks of traditional goods will contribute to the segment's growth and support market projections.

Based on type, the stents market is classified into self-expandable stents and balloon-expandable stents. Expandable stents are projected to receive more regulatory approval, accelerating segmental expansion. Unlike stainless steel with a closed cell design for tight scaffolding, the balloon-expandable is made of cobalt-chromium struts. Following coronary angioplasty, these stents are frequently utilized to prevent coronary restenosis. Additionally, the advantages of balloon-expandable stents—such as increased radial stiffness and comparatively more precise placement, which is crucial in bifurcation lesions—will increase the market's sales of stents.

Based on the end-use segment, the stents market is segmented into hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, and others. It is well known that hospitals have created infrastructure with the modern medical equipment needed for successful stent treatments. Stents are regarded as vital medicinal supplies and are frequently utilized in minimally invasive surgical treatments. Because hospitals have highly qualified doctors and nurses who can provide efficient post-surgery care, patients receive superior care there. Additionally, it is anticipated that the frequency of stenting procedures will rise in response to an increasingly sedentary lifestyle, poor diet, and unhealthy habits, including drinking alcohol, smoking, and using tobacco products. Additionally, it is anticipated that the Stents market would generate revenue due to the growing emphasis on modernizing the healthcare infrastructure, which includes hospitals.
