Global gastrointestinal medical technology devices market was valued at $13.7 billion in 2021 and is expected to increase at a 5% rate over the following five years.

Health

Some of the major factors propelling the market’s growth are the rise in GI procedures, the preference for less invasive surgeries, the growing use of single-use devices to prevent cross-contamination and ensure patient safety, the rise in colorectal cancer cases and screening requirements in most healthcare systems, the growing hospital investments in endoscopy facilities, and the advantages of endoscopic procedures.

Gastrointestinal (GI) diseases are disorders of the digestive system that involve a range of vital digestive organs such as mouth, esophagus, stomach, small and large bowels, rectum, anus, and GI connected organs (liver, gallbladder, and pancreas).

The burden of GI diseases such as colorectal cancer, gastroesophageal reflux disease, ulcerative colitis (UC), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and Crohn’s disease (CD) is growing globally and can be attributed to varying environmental factors brought on by changes in diet, industrialization, enhanced sanitation, and the increased use of antibiotics. Medical devices such as endoscopes, laparoscopes/surgical endoscopes, endotherapy devices, and laparoscopic devices play a vital role in the early & accurate diagnosis and treatment of potentially life-threatening GI diseases, which in turn opens up growth avenues for GI MedTech device manufacturers.

The Resurgence of Gastrointestinal Endoscopic Devices Market Post Covid-19 Pandemic

Throughout 2020 and 2021, the Covid-19 virus spread rapidly and relentlessly across the globe and adversely impacted a multitude of industries worldwide. With lockdowns implemented, social distancing mandated, and widespread apprehension – Covid-19 adversely impacted health services internationally and the GI MedTech industry was no different.

Specialties such as gastroenterology were directly affected by Covid-19. The pandemic adversely impacted the workflow and safety of endoscopists, ancillary staff, and patients. Shortages of personal protective equipment (PPE), curtailed patient volume, dearth of testing kits, workforce furloughs, and lockdowns forced units to drastically reduce the volume of the procedures, postpone and even cancel GI procedures in medium- to low-risk cases. The dip in the number of GI procedures resulted in the decline of Gastrointestinal Endoscopic Devices revenue

However, since 2021, the Gastrointestinal Endoscopic Devices is on the recovery path. The market has been driven by the strong performance of GI MedTech companies in Japan, Europe, and North America, increased sales of gastroscopes and colonoscopes, the launch of innovative products, strong performance of the GI MedTech device manufacturers in North America, improving Covid-19 coverage globally and rising number of GI procedures.

 “A price erosion in Gastrointestinal Endoscopic Devices is expected due to consolidation of group purchasing organizations (GPOs) in different markets and demand of discounts by cash-strapped hospitals in high volume purchases especially due to Covid-19 pandemic.” – Senior Director, Leading Endoscope Manufacturer, United States

Technological Advancements is driving the Gastrointestinal Endoscopic Devices Market

The Gastrointestinal Endoscopic Devices market is a technology-driven market and is marked by constant product enhancements/innovations. For instance,

  • In May, 2022, Fujifilm showcased its new endoscopy innovations for the detection, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases at Digestive Disease Week (May 21-24), 2022. The firm showcased its entire portfolio of endoscopic imaging solutions for core gastrointestinal (GI), therapeutic, interventional, and third space endoscopy including ELUXEO® VISION, G-EYE® 700 Series Colonoscopes, El-740D/S Dual-Channel Endoscope, TRACMOTION [Fujifilm’s new device for endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD)]
  • In Feb 2022, Ambu received the 510(k) regulatory clearance of the Ambu® aScope™ Gastro and Ambu® aBox™ 2 in the United States. aScope Gastro is Ambu’s first sterile single-use gastroscope and includes new advanced imaging and design features in a combined solution with next-generation display and processor technology. With HD capabilities, the aBox 2 sets a new benchmark in terms of image quality and is at the centre of Ambu’s endoscopy ecosystem.
