Urodynamic equipment and consumables market Outlook - 2027
Urodynamic testing or urodynamics is a study that assesses how the bladder and urethra are performing their job of storing and releasing urine. Urodynamic tests are usually performed in Urology, Gynecology, OB/GYN, Internal medicine, and Primary care offices. Urodynamics will provide the physician with the information necessary to diagnose the cause and nature of a patient's incontinence, thus giving the best treatment options available. Urodynamics is typically conducted by urologists or urogynecologists. The tests are most often arranged for men with enlarged prostate glands, and for women with incontinence that has either failed conservative treatment or requires surgery. Probably the most important group in whom these tests are performed are those with a neuropathy such as spinal injury. In some of these patients (dependent on the level of the lesion), the micturition reflex can be essentially out of control and the detrusor pressures generated can be life-threatening. Symptoms reported by the patient are an unreliable guide to the underlying dysfunction of the lower urinary tract. Urodynamic studies should assess both the filling and storage phase, as well as the voiding phase of bladder and urethral function. In addition, provocative tests can be added to try to recreate symptoms and assess pertinent characteristics of urinary leakage.
Covid-19 Scenario analysis:
The coronavirus COVID-19 is affecting 213 countries and territories around the world. COVID-19 has created new challenges that are requiring manufacturers to innovate at speeds they never have before. Supply chain disruptions, social distancing on high-touch assembly lines, limited ability to travel, and the need for oversight add significant complexity to today’s processes. The outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has created a global health crisis that has had a deep impact on the manufacturing market there is a shortage in supply of raw materials from Chinese manufacturers which has resulted in a severe demand-supply gap. The manufacturers are further expected to be stranded on raw material orders owing to the logistics industry being significantly impacted due to lockdown amid COVID-19. This has all affected the market adversely causing a slowdown in the Urodynamic equipment and consumables market due to shortage of supply and manufacturing.
Top impacting factors: Market Scenario Analysis, Trends, Drivers and Impact analysis:
Drivers:
Technological advancements:
Technological advancements have been made recently in the urodynamics field. Indeed, urodynamic testing has been the gold standard for assessing the lower urinary tract for more than 30 years. While there have been important innovations to the instruments that are used during these assessments, and clinical knowledge of conditions that affect the lower urinary tract has improved, there are still issues surrounding this practice that should be resolved if urodynamics is going to remain relevant. The history of urodynamic testing begins with noninvasive uroflowmetry, where the characteristics of a patient’s urine stream are studied. Next, pressure flow studies were introduced which involved invasive catheterization. Since that time, few changes have been made. The most recent technological advancement has been the use of fluoroscopy for noninvasive videourodynamics. Over the past 30 years, innovations such as air charged bladder and rectal catheters (which overcome the limitations of water charged catheters), electromyography electrodes, and automated puller systems have improved data acquisition during urodynamic tests. Thus the research and advancement in the testing will boost market.
High incidence rates of urological disease-related health risks:
The urinary tract is the body’s drainage system for removing wastes and extra water. The urinary tract includes two kidneys, two ureters, a bladder, and a urethra. Blood flows through the kidneys, and the kidneys filter out wastes and extra water, making urine. The urine travels down two narrow tubes called the ureters. The urine is then stored in a muscular, balloon-like organ called the bladder. The bladder swells into a round shape when it is full and gets smaller as it empties. When the bladder empties, urine flows out of the body through the urethra. The purpose of urodynamics is to provide objective confirmation of the pathology that a patient's symptoms would suggest. Urodynamic testing is any procedure that looks at how well the bladder, sphincters, and urethra are storing and releasing urine. Most urodynamic tests focus on the bladder’s ability to hold urine and empty steadily and completely. Urodynamic tests can also show whether the bladder is having involuntary contractions that cause urine leakage. A health care provider may recommend urodynamic tests if symptoms suggest problems with the lower urinary tract. For example, a patient complaining of urinary urgency (or rushing to the toilet), with increased frequency of urination can have overactive bladder syndrome. The cause of this might be detrusor over activity, in which the bladder muscle (the detrusor) contracts unexpectedly during bladder filling. Urodynamics can be used to confirm the presence of detrusor over activity, which may help guide treatment. An overactive detrusor can be associated with urge incontinence. Urodynamics are a means of evaluating the pressure-flow relationship between the bladder and the urethra for the purpose of defining the functional status of the lower urinary tract. The ultimate goal of urodynamics is to aid in the correct diagnosis of lower urinary tract dysfunction based upon its pathophysiology. The detection is thus necessary to figure out any existing urinary problems and thus the market will boost.
Restrains:
High cost of equipment’s is the main market restrain.
Regional analysis:
North America holds the largest market for the urodynamic equipment and consumables due to rising number of the urological diseases and the adoption of the technologically advanced equipment. Asia pacific is expected to be the fastest growing market for the urodynamic equipment and consumables due to the rising geriatric population which is more prone to the urological dysfunctions. The introduction of the new technological advance product may enable the growth of the urodynamic equipment and consumables market in coming future.
