MENA Video Laryngoscope

MENA Video Laryngoscope

A video laryngoscope is a medical device used in the field of anesthesia and critical care. It consists of a handle with a blade that contains a tiny camera and light source. The camera on the blade transmits live video feed to a screen, allowing healthcare providers to navigate the airway more effectively and safely during procedures such as endotracheal intubation. The device is used to obtain a clear view of a patient's vocal cords and airway during intubation procedures.

The MENA Video Laryngoscope Market is expected to grow at a strong CAGR of 18.74% during the forecast period (2023-2030). This is mainly due to the increasing prevalence of respiratory diseases and disorders requiring airway management, and the growing demand for minimally invasive surgical procedures. According to Global Asthma Report, in 2022, The prevalence of asthma in Saudi Arabia (KSA) in the last national study as part of GAN Phase I was estimated to be 10.4%, 13.3%, and 14.2% in children 6-7, 13-14 years and adults. Moreover, expansion of healthcare infrastructure and investments in medical equipment across the MENA region.

This is mainly due to these devices providing clear visualization of the airway anatomy, facilitating successful intubation attempts and reducing the risk of complications. The rigid video laryngoscopes were suitable for managing normal to moderately difficult airways, making them valuable tools in various clinical settings.
• Based on usage type, the market is segmented into reusable, and disposable. Among them, the reusable category held the largest share of the market in 2022. This is mainly due to these devices having great durability, reliability, and long-term cost savings compared to disposable alternatives. Furthermore, the versatility and adaptability of reusable video laryngoscopes make them suitable for a wide range of clinical scenarios and patient populations.
• Based on device type, the market is segmented into cart-based, and handheld. Among them, handheld devices are expected to grow with a significant CAGR during the forecast period (2023-2030). This is mainly due to the surge in demand for hand-held video laryngoscopes is their suitability for use in diverse clinical environments and patient populations. Additionally, the affordability and accessibility of hand-held video laryngoscopes contribute to their growth in the MENA market.
• Based on the end user, the market is categorized into hospitals, ENT clinics and others. Among these, the hospitals held a dominant share of the market in 2022. Hospitals depend on heavily on advanced airway management solutions to ensure optimal patient care standards. They offer several advantages in hospital settings, such as improved visualization of the airway anatomy, higher intubation success rates, and reduced procedure-related complications.
• For a better understanding of the market adoption of the Video Laryngoscope industry, the MENA market is analyzed based on its worldwide presence in countries such as UAE, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Kuwait, and the Rest of the MENA. Egypt is expected to grow with the highest CAGR of the market during the forecast period (2023-2030). The increasing awareness among healthcare providers regarding advanced airway management techniques and the rising prevalence of respiratory diseases. According to the Global Cancer Observatory, in 2022, around 7643 number of lung cancer cases in both sexes. This includes the adoption of video laryngoscopes for improved visualization during intubation procedures which leads to higher success rates and reduced complications. As the demand for advanced airway management solutions continues to rise, Egypt's video laryngoscope market is poised for sustained growth and technological advancements.
