Surgical Instrument Market by Product (Surgical Sutures & Staplers, Handheld Surgical Equipment, and Electrosurgical Devices), by Application (Neurosurgery, Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, Cardiovascular Surgery, Urology Surgery, Orthopedic Surgery, Gynecological Surgery, Ophthalmic Surgery, Laparoscopic Surgery, and Others), by End User (Hospitals, Ambulatory Surgical Centers, and Clinics) – Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2023–2030
The Surgical Instrument Market size was valued at USD 13.40 billion in 2022, and is predicted to reach USD 25.52 billion by 2030, with a CAGR of 7.9% during the forecast period, 2023–2030.
The rising aging population across the globe is one of the significant factors that create immense growth opportunities in the surgical instrument market. However, the stringent regulations imposed by the regulatory bodies make it difficult and time-consuming to bring new products to market. This, in turn, is expected to restrain the growth of the market during the forecast period. On the contrary, the growing cases of chronic diseases, such as heart disease, cancer, and diabetes, are becoming common and often require surgery. This factor is expected to create ample opportunities for the market in the coming years.
