Global Vagus Nerve Stimulator Market
Global Vagus Nerve Stimulator Market was valued at USD 555.2 million in 2021 and is expected to reach USD 1195.9 million by 2027, at a CAGR of 12.15% from 2022 to 2027.
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is a medical treatment which involves delivering electrical impulses to the vagus nerve. It uses an implanted device to send an electrical pulse to one’s vagus nerve, which then travels to one’s brain. Vagus nerve stimulators are also called vagus nerve stimulation. Surgeons implant a device near the collarbone and run a wire to the vagus nerve. When the device fires, it stimulates that nerve to send signals to the brain. This increases activity in areas that control mood.
Market Drivers
The rising prevalence of neurological disorders is the key factor expected to drive the global vagus nerve stimulator market growth. Also, increases in investments in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries and in research and development activities will have a positive impact on market growth.
Moreover, growing technological advancements and increase in prevalence of neurological disorders such as epilepsy, depression, anxiety, and others is expected to boost growth of the global vagus nerve stimulators market over the forecast period 2027.
Market Restraints
The lack of skilled professionals is the major challenging factor which is expected to obstruct the global vagus nerve stimulator market growth. High costs associated with neurostimulator devices are also expected to hinder the market growth.
Market Segmentation
The Global Vagus Nerve Stimulator Market is segmented into product, biomaterial, application, end user, and region.
