Market Definition

An airway management device is a collection of medical procedures used to keep patients' airways clear. This device maintains an open pathway in patients, allowing gas exchange between the lungs and the atmosphere. Various products, such as oropharyngeal airways, nasopharyngeal airways, laryngeal mask airways, and tracheal incubation, are used in hospitals to provide airways in patients undergoing anaesthesia. These devices are used in a variety of settings, including anaesthesia, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, emergency medicine, neonatology, and many others. It has applications in neonatology for managing airway in babies, and the increasing incidence of preterm birth may necessitate the need for airway management.

Airway Management Device Market Scope and Segmentation

Airway Management Device Market Dynamics

Drivers

• The rise in the demand for emergency and intensive care

Patients with infectious, chronic, or cardiac conditions frequently have airway complications that necessitate immediate treatment. Similarly, people in a car accident or other traumatic injuries may require quick airway clearance to ensure their safety. Because of the high number of such cases, the global demand for airway management devices is increasing.

• Increasing prevalence of respiratory diseases

One of the key factors driving the market is the rising prevalence of respiratory diseases. Furthermore, as the number of surgeries increases, so does the use of anaesthesia. This, together with the numerous advantages of airway management devices, such as high efficiency in airway clearance and the maintenance of proper ventilation and patient safety during operative procedures, is also contributing to market growth.

• Regulatory Compliance

Maintaining compliance with medical reforms and regulations raises the demand for these solutions.

• Government investments for healthcare interoperability

The federal government's increased funding to drive the adoption of these solutions has further influenced the market. Furthermore, the increase in healthcare spending, advancements in healthcare infrastructure, and a high demand for expanded care delivery all benefit the airway management device market.

Opportunities

The COVID-19 pandemic has increased the use of single-use airway management devices in healthcare facilities as they strive to meet infection-control guidelines. COVID-19 patients who require ventilation are frequently intubated using single-use endotracheal or tracheostomy tubes. The rising prevalence of COVID-19 has increased global demand for airway management devices. This point to lucrative growth opportunities for market participants.

Restraints/Challenges

Endotracheal intubation, tracheostomy, and cricothyrotomy procedures all necessitate highly skilled anaesthetists and trained nurses. A lack of knowledge about the best immediate treatment can have a negative impact on the patient's condition, lengthen recovery time, and increase direct and indirect costs. In an emergency, incorrect diagnosis and treatment of serious injuries can result in deformities, dysfunction of the injured area, or patient death. The shortage of anaesthetists and paramedics has emerged as a major concern for countries all over the world. The scarcity has directly impacted the efficiency and capabilities of healthcare settings to provide surgical and emergency care, further limiting demand for airway management devices used in these procedures.

Covid-19 Impact on Airway Management Device Market

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in an increase in patient admissions to emergency departments and intensive care units. Patients with severe infections frequently experience respiratory failure or low oxygen saturation, necessitating the use of positive air pressure devices such as ventilators. As a result, there is a greater demand for airway management devices, particularly single-use devices. The number of patients requiring intubation via invasive airway management procedures has increased, as non-invasive procedures pose the risk of viral particle aerosolization. Healthcare practitioners providing airway management care to COVID-19 patients and other patients in healthcare facilities are at high risk, which has increased the demand for single-use devices.
