U.S. Market for Peripheral Vascular Devices and Accessories Executive Summary: By 2020, the U.S. market for peripheral vascular devices will be worth over $6 billion
M2 - Tue Nov 11, 6:43AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/3rwwd3/u_s_market_for) has announced the addition of the "U.S. Market for Peripheral Vascular Devices and Accessories (Executive Summary)" report to their offering. The peripheral vascular device market includes stents, percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) balloon catheters, atherectomy devices, chronic total occlusion devices, stent grafts, surgical grafts, arteriovenous (AV) access thrombectomy devices, inferior vena cava filters, catheters, guidewires, introducer sheaths, vascular closure devices and transcatheter embolization devices. These devices can be used for treating either coronary arterial or peripheral arterial disease (PAD), but only those devices used for peripheral procedures are included in this report. Older individuals and those who are obese have a higher risk of developing PAD. As result of a general increase in peripheral procedures and the development of new lower-limb treatments, the market for products such as stents and stent grafts will grow rapidly in the U.S. over the forecast period. Peripheral artery disease (PAD) remains a significantly under treated condition in the U.S and PAD is the leading cause of leg amputation. These factors will continue to drive growth in the peripheral vascular device market. In particular, the peripheral stent market is projected to grow over the forecast period. However, intense competition has led to price erosion and market penetration has moderated this once high growth segment. The launch of new technologies, including drug-eluting stents, will generate marginal revenues and only one company has sought FDA approval. In contrast, significant investments and acquisitions have taken place in the efforts of bringing the first drug-eluting balloon to the market, with Medtronic and C. R. Bard in a tight race to gain approval.

M2 - Fri Oct 31, 5:59AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/zk3lqw/global_continuous) has announced the addition of the "Global Continuous Glucose Monitoring Market 2014-2018" report to their offering. The Global Continuous Glucose Monitoring market to grow at a CAGR of 14.74% over the period 2013-2018 Continuous glucose monitoring is the measurement of glucose levels at regular intervals from a diabetic patient. Continuous glucose monitoring systems allow to gain insight into the trends of glucose levels between fingersticks, resulting in improved glucose control. Continuous glucose monitoring system comprises of a glucose sensor that is placed subcutaneously to provide the reading of glucose levels in tissue fluid. A transmitter sends information about the glucose levels using radio waves from the sensor to a receiver display. Continuous glucose monitoring system also offers additional information about HbA1C levels and fructosamine levels. The report covers the present scenario and the growth prospects of the Global Continuous Glucose Monitoring market for the period 2014-2018. In terms of component, the Global Continuous Glucose Monitoring market is divided into three segments: Transmitters and Receivers, Glucose Sensors, and Insulin Pumps. One key trend emerging in the market is the use of artificial pancreas technology in continuous glucose monitoring systems. The artificial pancreas is a closed-loop insulin delivery system that mimics the functions of a healthy pancreas in the human body by continuously monitoring glucose levels and automatically adjusting insulin delivery with minimal or no patient interaction. According to the report, one of the main drivers in this market is the rise in the incidence of diabetes across the population worldwide. Diabetes is also a cause of co-morbidities such as heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, blindness, and other debilitating diseases. The demand for continuous glucose monitoring has increased as diabetics look for ways to gain control over their glucose levels and manage them better. Further, the report states that one of the major challenges in the market is the presence of alternative methods of glucose monitoring. Blood glucose meters, test strips, and lancets, which are widely used in glucose monitoring products, can pose a hindrance to the adoption and growth in the popularity of continuous glucose monitoring systems.

M2 - Thu Oct 30, 9:31AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/kdcwwv/global) has announced the addition of the "Global Coagulation Testing Market 2014-2018" report to their offering. Coagulation tests help in measuring the clotting ability of blood. Clotting is the process of blood converting from liquid into gel form. Coagulation tests are performed to analyze clotting disorders such as hemorrhage and thrombosis. Coagulation tests include complete blood count, factor V assay, fibrinogen level, prothrombin time, platelet count, thrombin time, and bleeding time. Coagulation testing analyzers play a major role in improving patients' quality of life. An expansion of some of the economies in the APAC region is one of the main trends seen in this market. Governments in emerging countries are making efforts to improve healthcare infrastructure, which has benefited the Coagulation Testing market. According to the report, one of the major drivers in the market is the increase in the prevalence of cardiovascular disease. CVD deaths occur almost equally in men and women and it is predicted that by 2030 almost 23.6 million people will die from CVD. An increase in the prevalence of CVD has led to the development of coagulation testing products, and thus, the growth of the market. Further, the report states that one of the major challenges in the market is the high cost incurred in R&D activities. Many big vendors are facing the frequent elimination of coagulation testing analyzer products because of rapid developments with respect to the technological aspects of coagulation testing analyzers. The Global Coagulation Testing market can be segmented into the revenue generated from end- user application such as: - Point-of-Care Coagulation Testing - Home Diagnostics Key Vendors - Abbott Laboratories - Danaher - F.
