Lithotripters market in the Americas

The Americas accounted for around 45% share in the global lithotripters market, with the US being the major contributor.  One of the major factors contributing to the growth of the market is the increasing older population and the growing prevalence of urology disorders, such as urolithiasis, high recurrence and prevalence rates of kidney stones (renal anomalies). These growing incidences of urolithiasis have led to the high adoption of ESWL and ISWL in the US.

According to Barath Palada, a lead analyst at Technavio, specializing in research on urology devices, “The emergence of advanced lithotripters such as Holmium laser, multiple clinical applications of lithotripsy devices, and the availability of private and government-sponsored health insurance in the US will drive the market growth in the US. In addition, the adoption of robotic surgeries and MI lithotripsy procedures in the US will be another factor fueling growth in the market.”

The advances in product design and application and the availability of reimbursements by Medicare have also contributed to market growth in the US. Also, several manufacturers are implementing strategies for product innovations and product line extension to increase their revenues. The evolving guidelines from the American Urology Association (AUA) and Society of American Gastrointestinal and Endoscopic Surgeons (SAGES) have provided the diagnosis and therapeutic tool for treating multiple urinary tract pathologies with better design and techniques, which has increased the demand for lithotripsy procedures in this region. Manufacturers are also focusing on providing MI technologies to provide early diagnosis, early detection of diseases, and effective treatment strategies. They are providing innovative and cost-effective quality products and are establishing direct sales subsidiaries and providing training programs for the healthcare providers. Further, vendors are also focusing to offer value-added services and customer services to increase their customer base.
