“In recent years, the market is witnessing more customers opting for anesthesia disposables especially in the developed nations. This shift is the result of the growing concerns among hospitals about cross-contamination that can happen if reusable products are used. Since disposable masks involve low maintenance costs, help to eliminate the need for product sterilization, and reduce the probability of cross contamination in hospital settings, their demand among the end users will rise rapidly over the next few years,” says Barath Palada, Lead Analyst, Healthcare & Lifesciences, Technavio Research
The laryngeal mask airway (LMA) segment currently dominates the global anesthesia disposables market and is expected to grow at a CAGR of just over 7% by the end of the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to the use of supraglottic airways during general anesthesia procedures. Also, factors such as the vendor’s focus on the development of top quality masks to enhance patient comfort during surgery will also help in the growth of this market segment during the forecast period.
