Medical Device Cleaning Market By Device Outlook (Critical, Semi-critical, Non-critical), By Technique Outlook (Cleaning, Disinfection, Sterilization, Autoclaving), By EPA Classification Outlook (High Level, Intermediate Level, Low Level), By End-User (Hospitals, Dental Clinics, Diagnostic Centers, Others): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2021-2031
The global medical devices cleaning market is envisioned to garner $31,248.8 million by 2031, growing from $11,850.9million in 2021 at a CAGR of 10.4% from 2022 to 2031.
Medical devices must be sterile in order to protect patients and prevent infections at the site of wounds and incisions. Medical device cleaning is an integral part of every surgical process. Most medical devices, such as scissors, scalpels, retractors, endoscopes, and forceps, are used in healthcare procedures. To reduce infection among patients and healthcare workers, medical instruments must be disinfected and thoroughly cleaned before being used in subsequent surgical procedures.
The surge in number of surgical procedures performed worldwide, the high incidence of hospital-acquired infections, and the ageing population are driving the growth of the medical device cleaning industry. The number of surgical operations conducted globally has increased significantly over time. In addition, the rise in demand for various surgical operations for various chronic diseases and medical conditions is one of the primary driving forces in the global medical device cleaning market. The surge in prevalence of hospital-acquired infections is expected to be a major factor contributing to the overall market's consistent growth during the forecast period. Increase in physician and patient awareness of the benefits of medical device cleaning is projected to offer attractive opportunities for market development. Furthermore, specialist cleaning solutions have gained popularity across the world due to their ability to aid in the breakdown of certain proteins and lipids.
However, concerns about the safety of reprocessed instruments are expected to limit the market's growth during the forecast period. Concerns have been raised about the safety and performance of reprocessed devices. Inadequate instrument cleaning can lead to the retention of blood tissue and other biological debris in reusable devices, increasing the risk of surgical-site infections (SSIs) in patients. These factors are limiting hospital administrations' and physicians' acceptance of reprocessing.
The Association for Experts in Infection Control and Epidemiology (APIC), the largest association for infection prevention and control (IPC) specialists, formed a strategic partnership with Metrex Research, LLC in August 2021. The APIC Strategic Partner program fosters enduring relationships with business partners who share the objective of reducing infection risk. Thus, the market for cleaning medical devices is expected to expand quickly in the upcoming years. To control hospital acquired infections, manual cleaning and disinfection methods are insufficient. Housekeepers clean only 40% to 50% of the surfaces that need to be cleaned in order to keep the environment sanitary. This could be due to hospitals' inability to adhere to strict guidelines established by regulatory authorities, or it could be due to MDR microbiota's resistance to such stringent cleaning and sterilization processes.
COVID-19 is anticipated to have a positive impact on the medical device cleaning market. Environmental surfaces are more likely to be contaminated with the COVID-19 virus in healthcare settings where certain medical procedures are performed. As a result, these surfaces must be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected to prevent future transmission, particularly in facilities that admit COVID-19 patients. Similarly, this recommendation applies to non-traditional venues for COVID-19 patient isolation with uncomplicated and moderate disease, such as residences and non-traditional facilities, which is expected to promote market growth.
