For instance, in the U.S., more than 375,000 patients are opting for sclerotherapy per year.
Treatment Mode Takeaway
In terms of treatment segmentation, the global varicose veins treatment devices market split into injection sclerotherapy, endovenous ablation, and surgical ligation/stripping. Among the above-mentioned segmentation, endovenous ablation accounted for significant revenue share and is anticipated to expand at a substantial CAGR over the forecast period. Treatment of lower extremity chronic venous disease has been done through an endovenous laser ablation technique. This technology adoption rate by the physician for minimally invasive laser treatment is growing at a rapid rate. Along with a high adoption rate, a rising number of ABVLM-certified physicians is expected to fuel the growth of the segment for the varicose veins treatment devices market across the globe.
End-use Takeaway
Based on end-use the market is categorized into hospitals, clinics, and ambulatory centers. Among the aforementioned segments, the hospitals segment accounted for relatively high revenue share and is projected to show lucrative growth over the forecast period. The growth is attributed to fair reimbursement for procedures, availability of highly developed healthcare infrastructure, and growing incidences of varicose veins disorder. However, the ambulatory center segment is expected to show the highest growth among all the above mentioned end-use segments. The growth of the ambulatory centers segment is increasing inclination for patient-friendly minimal invasive surgery coupled with the growing number of ambulatory centers across the globe.
Regional Takeaway
The topographical segmentation of the global varicose veins treatment devices market includes North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. In terms of value, North America varicose veins treatment devices market leads the global industry. The demand for the market in the region is attributed to the prevalence and increasing incidences of varicose veins across the region. According to the Vascular Disease Foundation, at least 25 to 30 million Americans have varicose veins and the number is increasing. Thus, the rising number of people affected by this condition will fuel the product demand, driving industry growth.
Furthermore, increasing prevalence of obesity in the U.S. with high healthcare spending is anticipated to create a huge impact on North America varicose veins treatment devices market over the forecast period.
On the contrary, Asia Pacific is projected to expand at a substantial growth rate in near future. The growth in the region owing to increasing preference for technologically advanced in the healthcare industry, patient-friendly procedures, and increasing elderly population.
