Rising number of chronic diseases: a major market driver

Rising number of chronic diseases is one of the major factors driving the global ostomy products market. Chronic diseases such as cancer in the small and large intestine, which is generally known as colorectal cancer, rectal cancer, and bladder cancer, infection in the colon, and inflammatory bowel diseases are increasing across the globe. The incidence of cancer is proliferating in both the developed and developing countries, particularly in the older population.

Americas: largest ostomy products market

The ostomy products market in the Americas will witness a steady growth rate during the forecast period. The increase in the number of colorectal cancer and Crohn’s disease cases led to an increase in the demand for ostomy procedures. This, in turn, has increased the demand for ostomy products such as colostomy and ileostomy bags and accessories. High disposable income in developed countries in the Americas such as the US and Canada increased the adoption of ostomy products.

According to a lead analyst at Technavio for research onorthopedics and medical devices, “Regulatory approval in the US is strict when compared with European countries. But, ostomy fall under Class I medical devices category in the US. As these products come under Class I medical device, it is not necessary for the manufacturers to receive pre-market approval, which accelerates the US FDA approval process. This has allowed manufacturers to gain profit margins and invest in the R&D of innovative ostomy products.”
