Medical Gases And Equipment Market Research, 2032
The global medical gases and equipment market size was valued at $14.3 billion in 2022 and is projected to reach $28.9 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 7.6% from 2023 to 2032. Medical gases and equipment are tools and supplies used in healthcare facilities for various medical purposes. Medical gases are used for therapeutic, diagnostic, or anesthesia purposes, such as oxygen, nitrous oxide, helium, carbon dioxide, and others. Medical gases are supplied to the patients through various delivery systems, including gas cylinders, central pipeline systems, and liquid oxygen systems. Medical gas equipment refers to the devices and systems used to administer and monitor medical gases, such as oxygen, nitrous oxide, and others. Some common types of medical gas equipment include cylinder, regulator, outlet, valve, alarm system, and others.
Market Dynamics
The medical gases and equipment market share witnessed growth owing to a rise in prevalence of respiratory diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), emphysema, and asthma that further increased the demand for medical gases and equipment. For instance, according to National Center for Environmental Health 2023, in U.S., 25,257,138 number of people were suffering from asthma in 2020. Out of the 25,257,138 asthma patients, 4,226,659 number of person were below the age of 18 years, and 21,030,479 number of person above the age of 18 years.
In addition, oxygen therapy is used in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases such as heart failure and angina. Supplemental oxygen can help increase the oxygen supply to the heart and reduce the workload on the heart, improving symptoms and preventing complications. Thus, rise in prevalence of cardiovascular diseases such as heart failure and angina, further increases the demand of medical gases and equipment and drives the growth of medical gases and equipment market share. For instance, according to world health organization (WHO) June 2021, an estimated 17.9 million people died from cardiovascular diseases and, representing 32% of all global deaths.
Moreover, oxygen therapy is the standard treatment for carbon monoxide poisoning, as it helps to displace the carbon monoxide from the blood and restore the oxygen supply to the body. Thus, the rise in incidence rate of carbon monoxide poisoning drives the growth of the medical gases and equipment industry. For instance, according to centers for disease control and prevention (CDC), 2023, every year, at least 420 people die in the U.S. from accidental CO poisoning. According to same source, more than 100,000 people in the U.S. visit the emergency department each year due to accidental CO poisoning. Hence, such factors drive the growth of medical gases and equipment market size.
Furthermore, rise in technological advancement in medical gases & equipment and increase in geriatric population suffering from heart disease & respiratory diseases, such as COPD and dyspnea, are anticipated to drive the growth of the medical gases and equipment industry during the forecast period. For instance, according to article “Aging and Respiratory Diseases” published in December 2020, dyspnea is highly prevalent in the elderly, and is reported by approximately 30% of individuals greater than 65 years of age suffering from dyspnea. Thus, the global geriatric population is expected to grow significantly in the coming years, which will drive the growth of the medical gases market during the forecast period.
