Global Electrophysiology Market Value to Almost Double by 2020, as Arrhythmia Incidence Continues to Grow
M2 - Tue Mar 04, 3:40AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/szcgxs/medipoint) has announced the addition of the "MediPoint: Electrophysiology - Global Analysis and Market Forecasts" report to their offering. Global Electrophysiology Market Value to Almost Double by 2020, as Arrhythmia Incidence Continues to Grow The global electrophysiology (EP) market, consisting of ablation catheters, diagnostic catheters and lab systems, is set to experience rapid growth in value over the coming years, climbing from approximately $1.56 billion in 2013 to $2.93 billion by 2020, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 9.5%, says research and consulting firm The authors. The company's new report* forecasts that standard diagnostic catheters will achieve the largest revenue in the EP market by 2020, with a share of $2,493 million, followed by advanced diagnostic catheters and standard ablation catheters, with shares of $1,223 million and $575 million, respectively. According to the authors, this rapid EP industry growth is due to an increasing incidence of arrhythmia, along with rising market penetration of diagnostic and ablation catheters in the Asia-Pacific and South American regions. Rob Littlefield, MSc, Senior Analyst covering Medical Devices, says: Medical centers that support ablation are increasingly desirable as the global occurrence of cardiac dyssynchrony continues to rise. While atrial fibrillation and ventricular fibrillation are the most common indications for treatment, heart failure, diabetes and obesity can all contribute to ongoing rhythm management concerns. The authors states that the current EP market is extremely competitive and dominated by several key players, which must continue to innovate in the face of mounting price pressure and strict regulation, as new entrants battle to gain market share. Up-and-coming technologies in development, including alternative forms of energy such as cryo-, ultrasound- and laser-ablation, as well as advanced mapping and navigation technologies, promise to increase product sales and new account openings. Meanwhile, industry standards continue to develop in relation to ablation strategies for treatment, therefore improving patient outcomes, Littlefield concludes. This report provides a comprehensive analysis of the global electrophysiology market, including development and sales of ablation catheters, diagnostic catheters and lab systems in the US, Germany, Italy, Spain, the UK, France, China, India, Japan and Brazil.

Concise Analysis on the International Surgical Robot Market - Forecasts to 2019
M2 - Fri Jan 31, 5:29AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/wlnv2r/surgical_robot) has announced the addition of a new report "Concise Analysis on the International Surgical Robot Market - Forecasts to 2019" to their offering. Existing open surgery can be replaced in large part by robotic minimally invasive surgery (MIS). Minimally invasive robotic surgery, new robotic radiation treatment, and emerging robotic surgical approaches complement existing surgery techniques. Soon, all surgery will be undertakes with at least come aspects of robotic surgery replacing or complementing open surgery. During a robot assisted surgical procedure, the patient-side cart is positioned next to the operating table with the electromechanical arms arranged to provide access to the initial ports selected by the surgeon. When a surgeon needs to change an instrument the instrument is withdrawn from the surgical field using the controls at the console. This is done many times during an operation. The companies that get an early foothold in the market have significant strategic advantage. The robotic surgical technique benefits hospitals by reducing the length of patient stays, thereby enabling better cost management. This factor is driving demand for surgery robot systems. Since robotics provide surgeons with a precise, repeatable and controlled ability to perform procedures in tight spaces, they are increasingly in demand. Hospitals are adopting robotic surgical devices to improve their outcomes numbers. Hospitals are measured on outcomes, robots for surgery, when used by a trained physician are improving outcomes significantly. Surgical robot device markets at $3.2 billion in 2012 are anticipated to reach $19.96 billion by 2019 as next generation devices, systems, and instruments are introduced to manage surgery through small ports in the body instead of large open wounds.
