by Airway management devices refer to the medical tools and equipment used during anesthesia and emergency care to maintain a patient’s airway and ensure adequate oxygenation and ventilation during procedures. A few common airway management devices include laryngeal mask, endotracheal tubes, laryngoscopes, tracheostomy tubes, and oral/nasal airways. These devices assist in maintaining a patent airway, delivering oxygen, removing secretions, and supporting mechanical ventilation. The rising prevalence of respiratory diseases worldwide has significantly increased the demand for emergency airway management. Growing cases of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, lung cancer, and others are driving the utilization of these devices.
The global Airway Management Devices Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 1949.53 Mn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 7.5% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market Dynamics
The growing prevalence of respiratory diseases and the rising number of emergency procedures requiring airway management devices are expected to fuel market growth over the forecast period. As per the World Health Organization (WHO), respiratory diseases are among the leading causes of death globally. The increasing pollution levels, growing tobacco consumption and aging population are key factors aggravating respiratory illnesses. Thus, higher demand for temporary airway devices, endotracheal tubes and laryngeal masks is witnessed among healthcare facilities. Furthermore, technological advancements in airway management, introduction of portable and disposable devices, and growing investments by market players to expand their product portfolios are some other drivers accelerating the market expansion.
Segment Analysis
The airway management devices market is dominated by the endotracheal tubes sub-segment, which holds around 60% share of the market. Endotracheal tubes are more commonly used in hospitals as they are the primary mode of airway management during surgery or intensive care. They provide a direct access to the lungs and are inserted through the mouth or nose down into the trachea.
