Ventricular Drainage Sets Market growing rapidly with Raumedic AG introducing Raumed Home ICP for intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring
A ventricular drain (or ventricular
stent) is a surgically placed opening device that is used in the inner chamber
of the heart to remove surplus fluids, usually to relieve arterial blockage
caused by narrowed arteries. Such an opening device can either be internal or
external - with the latter being placed externally (outside the heart).
Although the concept sounds simple enough, it has proved very effective in
various situations. Ventricular drainage sets are widely used in the treatment
of various types of diseases including intraventricular hemorrhage,
neurological disorders, and many more. As per the Alzheimer Association, in
2021, around 6.2 million people in the U.S. aged 65 years and above are living
with Alzheimer’s dementia. As per the National Organization for Rare Disorders
(NORD), around 25 to 35 in 100,000 people in the U.S. are affected by Bell’s
palsy, while 40,000 individuals are diagnosed with the same in the U.S. each
year. External ventricular drain (EVD)
is one the most common and important lifesaving procedures in neurologic
intensive care unit. Hence, such factors can augment growth of the ventricular
drainage sets market.
Over the years, the demand for
ventricular drainage sets has increased in the U.S. since there has been
increased cases of hospitalization due to traumatic brain injury. Such high
demand can potentially stimulate the regional ventricular
drainage sets market in the near future. Asia Pacific seems to be
exhibiting positive signs for the adoption of these devices due to high
prevalence of neurological diseases in the region. Recently, in December 2019,
Raumedic AG, a German medical devices manufacturer, launched Raumed Home ICP
for intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring.
That being said, certain aspects of
this medical device can inhibit further growth. There are some complications
associated with the use of ventricular drainage including infection and
hemorrhage, which is limiting its adoption. Besides, low availability of
skilled personnel to operate these devices can potentially restrict growth of
the ventricular drainage sets market.
External ventricular drainage, also
called an additional ventricular sink, is a surgical device utilized in the
inner chamber of the heart to remove excessive hydraulic pressure and provide
relief from ventricular pressure if the normal supply of cerebrospinal fluids
is obstructed. Such procedures have grown increasingly popular over the past
decade as medical researchers discover a myriad of possible benefits that such
treatments offer to patients suffering from various heart diseases and
conditions. Another key factor contributing to the development of the market is
increasing road accidents worldwide. In many emerging economies including India
and China, road accidents are major concern that lead to traumatic injuries,
which eventually requires ventricular drainage sets. Hence, such factors can
aid in growth of the ventricular drainage sets market.
Nice post. Well what can I say is that these is an interesting and very informative topic on ostomy powder uses
