Global Market for Intravenous Therapy & Vein Access to Reach $27.2 Billion in 2019
BCC Research anticipates that increasing competition, patent expirations, and evolving customer needs will influence research and development (R&D) spending in the intravenous (IV) therapy and vein access market over the next 5 years.
IV therapy is a critical component of the treatment of various diseases and is widely used in both surgical and non-surgical patients. It involves the administration of medication through a needle or catheter and is commonly prescribed for patients whose condition cannot be treated effectively by oral medications, or who require re-hydration.
Out of the major components of the IV therapy and vein access market, the IV infusion pumps segment is projected to record the greatest five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.2% from 2014 to 2019. During the past 40 years, the programming capabilities and the safety features of the infusion pumps have continued to be improved. In 2013, the total global IV therapy and vein access market reached $19.3 billion annually, and is forecast to reach $20.3 billion in 2014.
“Some of the factors that are influencing the advancement of this market include the rise in critical care therapies generated by the aging population, the changing mix of healthcare services between hospitals and alternate sites, the expanding product demand in developing markets, and technological improvements that will increasingly affect how therapies are managed, delivered and documented,” says BCC Research analyst Mary C. Patton.
Infusion therapy might also be referred to as parenteral therapy, since the term “parenteral” refers to a substance that is taken into the body or administered in a manner other than through the digestive tract, such as by IV or intramuscular injection.
