Furthermore, on the basis of volume, the global surgical drains market was estimated at 75.5 million pieces in 2020, and is projected to reach 95.5 million pieces by 2030, registering a CAGR of 2.0% from 2021 to 2030.

The overall impact of COVID-19 remains negative on surgical drains market, owing to decline in number surgeries. Surgery requires routine use of reusable equipment with close contact with patients. This increases the risk of disease transmission. In addition, guidelines issued by governments to provide surgical services to patients who require urgent attention and postpone surgeries if not urgent, which lead to decline in demand for surgical drains products, which are used post-surgery. For instance, report from Hong Kong in 2020, based on experience with SARS, showed that the risk of infection is 5% for physicians, 4% for nurses, and 8% for healthcare assistants. It emphasized the importance of practicing strict isolation, infection control measures, and adherence to use of personal protective equipment (PPE).

Surgical drains are implants that allow removal of fluid and/or gas from a wound or body cavity. Surgical drains are tubes placed near surgical incisions in the post-operative patient, to remove pus, blood or other fluid, preventing it from accumulating in the body. They are active drains that maintain a negative pressure gradient. Drains can help the healing process by removing inflammatory mediators, bacteria, foreign material, and necrotic tissue. Drains can relieve pressure that can impair perfusion or cause pain, thereby decreasing morbidity and reducing inflammation, they enable monitoring for potential complications by allowing easy sampling of fluid during healing; and they can be used to address complications associated with dead space after a pathology report has determined that neoplasia resection is complete and margins are adequate. The type of drainage system inserted is based on the needs of patient, type of surgery, type of wound, amount of drainage expected and surgeon preference. Surgical drains are composed of a variety of substances, such as latex or plastic and are used in a wide variety of different types of surgery such as breast surgery (to prevent collection of blood and lymph), orthopedic procedures (associated with greater blood loss), and chest surgery (the associated risks of raised intrathoracic pressure and tamponade).

Growth of the surgical drains market size is majorly driven by rise in chronic diseases and increase in incidences and prevalence of chronic diseases (such as cancers and cardiovascular diseases including heart diseases, strokes, and type II diabetes) which have resulted in rise of cardiovascular surgeries and cancer-related surgeries, for instance, cardiovascular disease is one of the leading causes of deaths across the globe. According to the World Health Organization, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death globally. An estimated 17.9 million people died from CVDs in 2019, representing 32% of all global deaths. Of these deaths, 85% were due to heart attack and stroke. Out of the 17 million premature deaths (under the age of 70) due to noncommunicable diseases in 2019, 38% were caused by CVDs which are the key factors that propel growth of the surgical drains market.

Furthermore, increase in geriatric population and technological advancements made in the field of surgical drains and focus of manufacturers on developing advanced and innovative tubes are the key factors driving the growth of surgical drains market size.

However, factors such as increase in number of minimally invasive processes, complications associated with usage of the systems and increase in chances for infection are expected to hamper the growth of the market up to some extent during the forecast period.
