The global automated endoscopy reprocessor market size was valued at US$ 845.3 million in 2017 and is expected to witness a robust CAGR of 6.7% over the forecast period (2018–2026).
Increasing adoption of endoscope reprocessors in healthcare settings to augment the market growth
Increasing adoption rate of endoscope reprocessors in hospitals for infection prevention and control is expected to fuel the global automated endoscopy reprocessor market revenue. AERs can enhance reliability and consistency of endoscope reprocessing by standardizing several important reprocessing steps, thereby reducing the possibility of human error. The use of AERs reduces exposure of personnel to harmful chemical germicides, thereby minimizing health problems attributed to reprocessing of endoscopes.
Moreover, rising government concerns pertaining to patient safety and increasing healthcare infrastructure are factors contributing to rise in global automated endoscopy reprocessors market size. For instance, in 2015, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) requested the Healthcare Infection Control Practices Advisory Committee (HICPAC) to issue guidelines for improvement of facility-level training to ensure competency for endoscope reprocessing devices.
Increasing focus on product innovation is expected to support growth of the market
Various changes required in AER and endoscope design will facilitate to further reduce the risk of transmission of infections related to endoscopy.
