Global surgical clips market was valued at USD 367.5 Million in 2020. It is expected to grow at a compound annual rate (CAGR of 26.7%) between 2021 and 2028. Market growth is being driven by the increasing use of minimally invasive surgical techniques, which are able to speed up recovery times, reduce hospital stays, minimize post-surgery complications, as well as the ease of care for elderly patients. In minimally invasive surgery, ligating clips have been shown to reduce incisions and prevent blood and bile leakage. B. Braun, Boston Scientific, Grena, Ltd. and Grena, Ltd. developed ligating clip technology to speed up and accurately place surgical instruments during operations. They also prevent clips from slipping at the point of attachment. Aneurysm clips are a key tool in the treatment of cranial aneurysms. They can be used as a part of surgical procedures, which is one of the most common treatment options for neurological disorders. The market has grown due to technological advancements and the affordability of surgical clips.
The market has been negatively affected by COVID-19. Due to the reduction in elective surgery and decreased surgeon capability to perform them, this has had a negative impact on the market. These surgeries can spread COVID-19 infections to the operating rooms, posing a risk to patients and surgeons. The pandemic was also marked by the inability to find surgical staff and patients' willingness to have surgeries. The shortage of surgical instruments also slowed market growth as manufacturing facilities were closed. The pandemic will be reduced if there are specific guidelines for each specialty that provide safe and effective surgical care.
Market growth will also be affected by the impact of COVID-19's raw material sector. The strict regulations regarding the production, disposal, and use of polymer-based medical products may also hinder new market players. It is expected that the current slowdown in raw materials supply will increase the replacement rate for other materials such as Stainless Steel and alloys by advanced polymer products.
In 2020, titanium surgical clips accounted for 82.6% of the total revenue. Titanium surgical clips have many advantages, including durability, lightness, non-reactivity and high tensile strengths. Its remarkable compatibility with imaging modalities such as CT, Xrays and MRI makes it an excellent choice for surgical equipment. This allows for segment growth.
A polymer is a great material for surgical clips because it resists axial pull, radiolucency, and inertness. The polymer's non-conductive properties resist thermal spread, preventing tissue necrosis and saving nearby organs. Hem-o–lok is a non-absorbable, polymer clip that is commonly used. It has a higher tissue holding power and better resistance to arterial pressure (up 800 mmHg), than titanium clips. It has many additional advantages over metal clips, including excellent tactile feedback and no spillage. Many market players have developed absorbable polymers that can be used to reduce the need for surgical clips after recovery. Advanced surgical clips are being introduced to the market and will replace other materials such as tantalum, stainless, and alloys.
In 2020, general surgery accounted for 87.5% of the total. Surgery clips are needed for general surgery, including vascular, urologic and gynecological procedures. Surgical clips have many advantages over sutures, including a lower infection rate, quicker healing times, reduced scar visibility and patient satisfaction.
The automated/robotic-assisted surgery segment is still in the initial growth phase. Its market share is limited due to a lack of infrastructure, financial aid, skilled personnel, and insufficient evidence regarding automated surgery. This surgery is now more popular in economically developed countries due to its lower human error rate and better efficiency.
Due to its large volume of procedures and preventive surgeries, the hospitals segment accounted for 78.8% of the total market share in 2020. In developed countries, insurance agencies will reimburse medical bills that contain ligature expenses. This is due to an increase in surgical procedures such as abdominal laparoscopy and neurosurgery, as well the rising incidence of trauma. This resulted in a rise in the number of surgical procedures that were performed at hospitals using clipping equipment, which has positively impacted segment growth.
Ambulatory Surgical Centers are expected to experience the highest growth rate at 28.6% over the forecast period. This is due to lower out-of pocket costs, improved patient access, and reduced facility costs. While most countries in Asia and the Middle East lack the infrastructure and economy to establish ambulatory centers to reduce the burden on hospitals, they are working hard to do so.
In 2020, ligating clips accounted for 78.2% of the total revenue. Ligating clips offer many benefits, including structural and dimensional stability, compatibility to open and endoscopic clip applicers, tactile feedback that allows surgeons to ensure precise locking, biocompatibility and the ability to prevent biofluid leaching (such as blood and bile) after surgery. They are a popular choice for surgicalligature. Hem-o-lok, and Hemoclip are the most popular ligating clips. You can find them in a variety of sizes, from small microchips to large clips, depending on how big your ligature is.
Dissolvable surgical clips are being developed to stop the clip from moving away from the area of application and prevent it from being removed after recovery. The market for aneurysm clips is expected to grow in the future. The market has seen positive growth due to increased use of the aneurysm-clipping technique.
Asia Pacific accounted for 27.8% of the global market share in 2020. It is expected to experience the fastest growth during the forecast period. Regional market growth is fueled by a high patient population and large number of surgeries. The region's growing healthcare infrastructure and medical tourism market are attracting international market players. Local market players can enter the market by offering competitive products and pricing due to the absence of reimbursement policies.
North America will grow at a rate of 28.4% over the forecast period. This is due to factors like the growing number of preventive surgery, the adoption of technologically advanced devices and the growing preference for minimally invasive procedures. The United States is home to the majority of market players, making it the center of the market.
The forecast period for Europe is expected to see a lot of growth. This growth can be attributed in part to the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, high adoption and use of advanced technologies, large geriatric populations, rising reimbursements for surgical procedures and growing demand for minimally invasive techniques over traditional ones.
Due to the existence of local sellers and manufacturers in many regions, the market is fragmented. These clips are available in a variety of sizes and styles from major players, and they are only sold for certain applications. Customers consider affordability and strong marketing to be key factors in determining their purchasing decisions.
