BIO-ENGINEERED STENT MARKET ANALYSIS

Global Bio-engineered Stent Market – Life Saving Treatment for Cardiovascular Diseases

Bio-engineered stent plays a major role in modern healthcare as it expands the blood vessel to prevent a blockage of arteries in cardiovascular diseases such as coronary heart disease and ischemic heart disease.

The global bio-engineered stent market size was valued at US$ 2,764.2 million in 2017, and is projected to exhibit a CAGR of 8.7% over the forecast period (2018 – 2026).

Increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases such as coronary heart disease and ischemic heart disease is expected to propel growth of the bio-engineered stent market

Bio-engineered stent is used in treating blockage of coronary and peripheral artery, which is related to coronary heart disease, ischemic heart disease, and other cardiovascular diseases. High prevalence of coronary heart disease, ischemic heart disease, and other cardiovascular diseases is expected to propel demand for bio-engineered stent, which in turn is expected to drive the market growth. According to American Heart Association, in 2018, around 92.1 million people in the U.S. were suffering with some form of cardiovascular diseases or the after-effects of stroke. Moreover, around 836,546 deaths in the U.S. were due to cardiovascular diseases, which accounted for 1 in every 3 deaths in the country. Direct and indirect costs in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases and stroke in the country were estimated to be around US$ 329.7 Million in 2018, which includes both health expenditures and lost productivity.

Similarly, according to World Health Organization (WHO), 2015, cardiovascular diseases are the highest cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, with around 17.7 million cases representing 31% of all worldwide deaths in 2015, of which around 6.7 million were due to stroke and 7.4 million were due to coronary heart disease.

However, availability of alternatives for the treatment of cardiac diseases, product recalls and failure, and stringent regulations for product approvals are expected to hinder the market growth. For instance in November 2017, Abbott recall Class 1 Device Recall Absorb Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffold (BVS) System, a absorbable coronary drug-eluting stent due to elevated rates of major adverse events, specifically, myocardial infraction and scaffold thrombosis when compared to patients treated with the Xience metallic drug eluting stent.

Increasing adoption of bio-engineered stents in North America is expected to bolster the market growth

North America holds a dominant position in the global bio-engineered stent market, owing to rapid growth in geriatric population, increasing incidences of cardiac ailments, coronary and peripheral artery diseases, and high prevalence of obesity in the region. According to World Population Prospects, the number of people aged 80 or over is projected to triple by 2050, from 137 million in 2017 to 425 million in 2050 in the U.S. This age bracket is expected to more than double worldwide, increasing from 962 million in 2017 to 2.1 billion in 2050.

Moreover, key players in the market are focused on receiving regulatory approvals for novel products to reduce the burden of blood stream infections associated with bio-engineered stents. For instance, in September 2018, Biotronik SE & Co. KG received the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for PK Papyrus covered coronary stent system for the treatment of acute coronary artery.
