Video Laryngoscope Market

Video Laryngoscope Market Research, 2031

The global video laryngoscope market was valued at $123.9 million in 2021, and is projected to reach $204.6 million by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 5.1% from 2022 to 2031. Video laryngoscope refers to an instrument with a video camera attached with a blade tip that provides a clear image of the larynx. A monitor displays the video data while illuminating the larynx. Video laryngoscopy procedure examines the vocal cords, throat, and other laryngeal anatomical aspects. During a laryngoscopy, a strobe light is utilized to offer the physician a clearer view of glottis and information about the voice box. Tissue removal typically happens after an anesthetic is given.

The COVID-19 pandemic is predicted to have a positive impact on the growth of the global video laryngoscope market. During the pandemic, technique for visualizing the endotracheal pathway became more and more popular among healthcare workers due to enhanced visualizations that enable intubation and prevent direct contact between patient and healthcare practitioner.

The market is expanding as respiratory diseases are becoming more common. Due to rapid rise in incidence of respiratory diseases, video laryngoscopy is becoming more and more common globally. The need for video laryngoscopes is anticipated to increase as robot-assisted intubation becomes more popular. Manufacturers have created cutting-edge solutions as a result of advancements in intubation that give medical personnel additional support and precision. By relieving the burden on anesthesiologists and enhancing all aspects of patient care, robot-assisted technologies contribute to the automation of anesthetic treatment. Robotics are being investigated by numerous manufacturers and researchers for usage in a variety of laryngoscopy techniques. 

In addition, open/invasive surgeries are less desired than minimally invasive ones, the need for minimally invasive laryngoscopic technologies is anticipated to rise in the future years. Higher patient satisfaction, financial viability, a comparatively shorter hospital stay, and fewer postoperative problems are further factors that have contributed to the shift toward minimally invasive surgeries. Video laryngoscope is anticipated to fuel market expansion due to its reduced surgical risks and quicker recovery time. In addition, laryngoscopy is a relatively safe procedure. Thus, less surgical complications and less time required for recovery boost the video laryngoscope market growth.

Furthermore, global manufacturers of video laryngoscopes are increasing their production units in developing nations. Unmet medical facilities and rise in demand in developing economies are the factors which drives the video laryngoscope market opportunity. However, the dearth of qualified medical professionals, certified experts, and laryngoscopists, particularly in developing and underdeveloped countries, restrains the video laryngoscope industry growth.
