Medical Tubing Market - Global Insights, Trends, Growth, Size, Share and Analysis, 2018-2026
Medical tubes are usually a small plastic tube inserted into the body through the mouth, nose or through any cut in the skin. These tubes are used to deliver oxygen, anesthesia, drugs or any other fluid into the patients’ body. Owing to the increasing number of minimally invasive surgeries and usage of medical devices that requires medical tubing. Hence, the manufacturers are focusing on the advancement of tubing functionality such as the number of lumens, deflection capability, and steerability. For instance, according to American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) statistics, there were 17.1 million surgical and minimally invasive cosmetic procedures performed in the U.S. in 2016. Moreover, medical tubing is mostly used for respiratory and fluid management process in a patient’s body.

The structure of the tube becomes more complex with decrease in size of the tube. Therefore, to satisfy the demand for medical tubing in various applications, the medical tubes are available in a variety of shapes and sizes. The manufacturers are also focusing on advancement of the materials that are used for the preparation of medical tubing, as it varies with application and chemical nature of the drug. The materials used for the preparation of medical tubes include polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), polycarbonate (PC), bioabsorbable polymers, polyester, thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), and thermoplastic elastomers (TPE). Moreover, if the material used for medical tubing is incompatible, it can lead to number of problems such as chemical alteration of drugs and medicines. Also, incompatible tube materials might lead to the binding of chemical or drug to the wall of medical tube resulting in failure of drug delivery to the patient.
Medical Tubing Market Dynamics:
Rising number of admissions in the intensive care units is expected to boost the market growth. Drug delivery through medical tubes for patients who cannot take the drugs orally also foster growth of medical tubing market. According to the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC), in 2015, it was estimated that acute injury and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD) are major disorders responsible for ICU admissions. According to the results of Burden of Obstructive Lung Disease (BOLD), in 2014, a multinational study to find prevalence of COPD reported that the prevalence of COPD in Germany was 5.9%, 19.1% in South Africa, and 11.9% in Mexico City of the total country’s population.
