Urinary incontinence (UI) is the most common problem affecting a substantial global population. It results in occasional or minor leaking or uncontrolled chronic urination, in worse cases. The growing prevalence of obesity; the increasing geriatric population; and the rising incidence of chronic diseases such as prostate cancer, diabetes, kidney diseases, and multiple sclerosis are among the prime risk factors for UI. Medical conditions such as spinal cord injuries, cerebral palsy, prostate enlargement, multiple sclerosis, and cancer, among others, may lead to UI in the geriatric population.

The economic burden of UI on healthcare systems grows with the surging elderly population across the world. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the total population aged 60 and above was 1 billion in 2020, and it is expected to reach 1.4 billion by 2030. As per an article published by Mayo Clinic Health System in 2022, the uncontrolled leakage of urine is a common symptom that affects almost 50% of the elderly population. The prevalence of this condition increases with age, and it affects more women than men of any age; up to 75% of women over 65 suffer from urine leakage. Intermittent urinary catheters are inserted into the bladder of individuals through the urethra several times a day to carry urine out of their body; it is kept in the bladder for just long enough to drain it before removing it. By catheterizing themselves, people can gain better control over their bladder. Once the catheter is removed after the bladder is emptied, people can continue their daily activities without any hindrances or awkwardness. Thus, the rising prevalence of UI is driving the growth of the intermittent catheters market.

By Product, Intermittent Catheters Market-Based Insights

Based on product, the intermittent catheters market is bifurcated into coated intermittent catheters and uncoated intermittent catheters. The coated intermittent catheters segment held a larger market share in 2023 and is anticipated to register a higher CAGR during 2023–2031. Coated catheters are intended to improve lubricant and facilitate insertion, perhaps reducing trauma and urinary tract infections. Gel- and hydrophilic-coated catheters are available in the market. Hydrophilic coating is the most prevalent coating type. Hydrophilic coated catheters meant for single use can help avoid some of the most common catheter-related problems, such as urethral damage and catheter-associated UTI.

By Indication, Intermittent Catheters Market -Based Insights

By indication, the market is segmented into urinary incontinence, general surgery, spinal cord injuries, Parkinson’s disease (PD), multiple sclerosis, and others. The urinary incontinence segment held the largest intermittent catheters market share in 2023. The general surgery segment is anticipated to register the highest CAGR during 2023–2031. Urinary incontinence, i.e., involuntary urination, is a medical condition that causes uncontrolled leakage of urine. This is a symptom associated with various other health-related problems. UI is more common among women than men. Three major types of urinary catheters are utilized for managing urinary incontinence: Foley catheters, intermittent catheters, and suprapubic catheters.

By Category, Intermittent Catheters Market -Based Insights

By category, the intermittent catheters market is divided into female length catheters, male length catheters, and kid length catheters. The female length catheters segment held the largest market share in 2023 and is anticipated to register the highest CAGR during 2023–2031. Urinary catheters are designed by considering the average bladder sizes of people. Female urinary catheters are short due to the short length of bladders. These catheters are inserted into the urethral meatus to drain urine from the bladder. The catheterization process is more complicated in women due to the varying layouts of the genitalia. Female catheters are majorly used for bladder retention, urinary incontinence, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, or other specific medical conditions that affect the normal function of the bladder. Female catheters are offered in slightly more size options, ranging from 15 cm to 30 cm (6–12 inches).

By End User, Intermittent Catheters Market -Based Insights

By end user, the market is segmented into hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, home care settings, and others. The closed intermittent catheters systems segment held the largest intermittent catheters market share in 2023 and is anticipated to register the highest CAGR during 2023–2031. Hospitals serve a major role by providing extensive medical services to patients suffering from various diseases. These are the prime healthcare centers where surgeries are performed on a frequent basis. They have technologically advanced infrastructures and integrated facilities, which enable them to perform complex procedures. In addition, owing to the availability of favorable reimbursement policies, a large number of surgical procedures are performed in these facilities, which require intermittent catheters during or post operations.
