Sample Request Link: https://www.imarcgroup.com/hernia-repair-market/requestsample Market Growth Factors The growth of the global geriatric population has driven the market. The WHO estimates that by 2030, one in six people in the world will be aged sixty years or over to amount to one point four billion people. Inguinal hernias are more common in adults, specifically the elderly. This is due to weakened abdominal muscles and tissues because of aging. Older adults have a higher need for surgeries, such as hernia repairs. Market growth should occur because these procedures are happening more often. Contributing to market growth are MI hernia repair instruments which provide less pain after surgery, faster recovery, and reduced complications compared with open surgery. This is accomplished through specialized adjunct devices, imaging, and smaller ports that allow for less intrusive, lower trauma, and more accurate repairs than can be accomplished with open surgery. For instance, the W. L. Gore & Associates GORE SYNECOR Intraperitoneal Biomaterial provides high levels of vascularity and strength for complex hernia repairs. Global healthcare infrastructure improvements also drive this market. Increased government funding for healthcare in the global market results in increased availability and capacity of hernia repair products. In the United States, the country's healthcare expenditure rose from 18.3% GDP in 2021 to 19.7% GDP in 2022, and this creates an increase in healthcare provision, making quality healthcare access easier which can promote the acceptance of new technologies in hernia repair surgery and their common use. Market Segmentation By Product Type: - Hernia Mesh: Comprises synthetic mesh (made from polypropylene or polyester supporting damaged tissues) and biological material mesh. Mesh biomaterials aid in closing hernia defects.
- Hernia Fixation Devices: Include sutures, absorbable and non-absorbable tack fixation devices, glue applicators, and endoscopy equipment. These devices secure hernia mesh during surgeries and support long-lasting repairs.
By Surgery Type: - Open Tension Repair Surgery: Traditional method using sutures to close hernia after pushing back protruded tissue, which may cause discomfort and higher recurrence.
- Tension-Free Repair Surgery: Uses mesh to bridge the hernia defect, regarded as the gold standard by the American College of Surgeons for lower recurrence and less pain.
- Laparoscopic Surgery: Minimally invasive with small incisions and use of a laparoscope to repair hernia from behind the abdominal wall, enabling faster recovery and less postoperative pain.
By Hernia Type: - Inguinal Hernia: Protrusion in the groin/scrotum area caused by tissue through a weak groin point, often requiring surgery.
- Ventral Hernia: Occurs along the anterior abdominal wall away from the umbilicus, commonly postoperative muscle weakness; surgery is prescribed for symptomatic cases.
- Femoral Hernia: More prevalent in women, near the groin crease, requiring early repair to avoid complications.
- Umbilical Hernia: Bulge near the belly button where tissues/intestines protrude through weak stomach muscles; surgery advised if it doesn’t heal.
- Hiatal Hernia: Stomach protrudes into the chest through the diaphragm, causing heartburn and indigestion; treated with medication, lifestyle changes, or surgery.
By End-User: - Ambulatory Surgery Centers: Outpatient facilities conducting same-day surgeries without overnight stay, driving growth due to the rise in minimally invasive procedures.
- Hospitals and Clinics: Provide comprehensive hernia repair products and services, benefiting from innovative products and advanced healthcare infrastructure.
By Region: - North America: Dominates due to advanced healthcare infrastructure, higher healthcare spending, and strong presence of key industry players.
- Europe: Second largest market driven by aging populations and sedentary lifestyles.
- Asia Pacific: Rapidly expanding with large patient populations and rising adoption of advanced treatments in countries like China, India, and Japan.
- Latin America: Market characterized by the presence of major players and improving healthcare infrastructure, with notable markets in Brazil and Mexico.
- Middle East and Africa: Gradually growing market aided by increasing healthcare investments and adoption of modern hernia repair technologies.
Regional Insights North America leads the hernia repair market due to its sophisticated healthcare infrastructure, substantial healthcare expenditure, and a significant presence of key market players like Medtronic Plc and Ethicon Inc. The region benefits from high hernia prevalence and continuous technological advancements. Europe and Asia Pacific also contribute significantly, with Europe driven by aging demographics and Asia Pacific experiencing rapid market growth fueled by large patient populations and advanced treatment adoption. Recent Developments & News - In 2021, Houston Methodist introduced a minimally invasive robotic-assisted transversus abdominis release (TAR) technique, reducing recurrence and complications, especially benefiting obese patients.
