Japan Minimally Invasive Surgery Devices Market - Growth, Trends, COVID-19 Impact, and Forecasts (2022 - 2027)
The Japan minimally-invasive surgery devices market is expected to register a CAGR of 5.5%, over the forecast period. The major factors for the growth of the Japan minimally-invasive surgery devices market include increasing prevalence of lifestyle-related and chronic disorders, along with rising geriatric population in Japan and technological advancements.
Minimally-invasive surgeries (MIS) cause less post-operative pain, and patients receive smaller dosages of pain killers. As there are minimal cuts or stitches involved, the hospital stay is relatively shorter, and patients need not visit the hospital frequently. Moreover, advantage of minimally-invasive surgeries (MIS) over the traditional open surgeries include it produces a better and magnified image of the organs or body parts being operated and higher precision due to video-assisted equipment.
According to the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare of Japan, in Japan, in 2018, about 162 men per 100,000 population died from heart diseases, an increase from around 135 men per 100,000 inhabitants in 2007. Heart diseases, excluding hypertensive heart diseases, were the leading cause of deaths among the male population in the country in 2018 after malignant neoplasms. Therefore the growing burden of chronic diseases is expected to increase minimally invasive surgical procedures and drives market growth in near future.
Key Market TrendsGastrointestinal Segment, under Application, is expected to be the Fastest Growing Segment over the Forecast Period.The major factors driving the growth of the gastrointestinal segment is due to rising incidence of gastrointestinal diseases in the young, adult, and geriatric groups. Dyspepsia, irritable-bowel syndrome, and constipation are some of the examples of gastrointestinal disorders. Minimally-invasive surgery has gained popularity for benign diseases, and has proved its safety and efficacy over traditional methods, owing to which, it has gained substantial attention in the past several years.
According to a research study by Yurika Kawamura et al., published in Springer Journal 2019, in Japan, the prevalence of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-C) and functional constipation (FC) was 4.97% and 8.76%, respectively. Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-C) caused more severe symptoms than functional constipation (FC), resulting in impairment of quality of life (QOL) among the population of under 70 years old. Thus, owing to above mentioned factors it is expected to show significant growth over the forecast period.
