Global Endoscopy Devices Market Size (2024 to 2029)

The size of the global endoscopy devices market is predicted to be worth USD 51.94 billion by 2028 from USD 37.38 billion in 2024 and is estimated to expand at a CAGR of 6.80% during the forecast period.

Endoscopy is a medical technological solution through which healthcare professionals can examine the inside parts of a human body. In this medical procedure, a long and flexible tube with a light and camera on the end is used to view the inside environment of a human body. Endoscopy helps identify the diseased organ's condition and aids in surgical procedures. Endoscopy is in the usage from across the world as these procedures are minimally invasive and cost-effective. The tube used in endoscopy procedures is inserted either from the mouth or through the anus and can be used to view the body organs such as the stomach, intestines, and other internal organs. Endoscopy diagnoses and treats various diseases such as GI problems, cancer, and others. In some countries, endoscopy procedures are covered by the health insurance provider; in such countries, the adoption of endoscopy is growing consistently. On the other hand, the preference for endoscopy from doctors and patients is increasing.

Global Endoscopy Devices Market Drivers:

The growing patient population suffering from gastrointestinal diseases such as cancer, ulcers, inflammatory bowel disease, and gastroesophageal reflux is one of the key factors propelling the endoscopy devices market growth. An estimated 29.3 million new cancer cases worldwide were recorded in 2020. An estimated 6 million people every year in the United States suffer from peptic ulcers. As per the statistics published by the Centers for Disease Prevention and Control (CDC), an estimated 3.1 million adults have been diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). 20% of the U.S. population has issues with GERD. Using endoscopy, healthcare providers examine the gastrointestinal tract for abnormalities and perform various procedures such as biopsies, removal of polyps, and treatment of bleeding ulcers. The growing prevalence of gastrointestinal diseases is resulting in the rising number of endoscopy procedures and boosting the endoscopy devices market growth.

The rapid adoption of technological developments to develop advanced and effective endoscopy devices is further fuelling the market’s growth rate. With the help of technological advancements, endoscopy devices have seen several developments improved imaging capabilities, wireless endoscopy devices and greater maneuverability. These technological developments have further helped to improve the effectiveness, accuracy, and safety of endoscopic procedures and resulted in the growing demand for endoscopy devices. The growing aging population is accelerating the growth of the endoscopy devices market. The aging population are much more likely to be diagnosed with digestive diseases and other conditions that require endoscopic procedures and resulting in an increasing number of endoscopic procedures.

The growing demand for minimally invasive surgeries is another notable factor contributing to the endoscopy devices market growth. Owing to the reduced trauma and pain to the patient, shorter recovery times, and lower healthcare costs, the number of minimally invasive surgeries is growing significantly. Endoscopic devices play a key role in minimally invasive surgeries as healthcare providers can visualize and access internal organs and tissues using these devices. The growing healthcare expenditure in several countries is boosting the growth of the endoscopy devices market. Several governments and healthcare organizations invest significant amounts in the healthcare industry and medical devices, including endoscopy devices. The rising awareness regarding digestive diseases and the increasing number of screening programs by several governments to detect these diseases early is accelerating the growth of the endoscopy devices market.

In addition, growing preference for outpatient procedures, rising demand for disposable devices, an increasing number of improvements in the healthcare infrastructure in developing countries, and rising adoption of capsule endoscopy are propelling the growth of the endoscopy devices market. Furthermore, rising demand for wireless endoscopy devices, an increasing number of technological advancements in endoscopic accessories and growing usage of endoscopy devices in veterinary medicine are further fuelling the growth rate of the endoscopy devices market.

Global Endoscopy Devices Market Restraints:

The high costs associated with endoscopic procedures are limiting the adoption of endoscopy devices and hampering the global market growth. Poor reimbursement coverage by some insurance companies in certain countries for endoscopic surgeries is another notable factor hindering the market’s growth rate. The availability of alternative diagnostic and treatment options is impeding the market growth. The scarcity of skilled professionals who can operate the devices, interpret results and perform procedures safely is a notable obstacle to the growth of the endoscopy devices market. In addition, concerns about infection transmission, stringent regulatory environment and limited access to endoscopy devices in certain countries are inhibiting the growth rate of the endoscopy devices market.

Impact of COVID-19 on the global endoscopy devices market:

The World Health Organization announced COVID-19 as a pandemic in March 2020. Since then, many countries worldwide have taken measures such as nationwide lockdowns, travel bans, temporary shutdowns, social distancing, and others to curb the spread of the novel coronavirus. However, due to the terrifying situations incurred by COVID-19, priority has been given to addressing COVID-19 patients. All other non-essential medical procedures were kept on hold, including endoscopy procedures, which led to a decline in the market’s growth rate. In addition, due to the announced lockdowns, restrictions on traveling and manufacturing plants resulted in supply chain disruptions and production activities of endoscopes, which negatively impacted the growth of the global endoscopy devices market. As a result, during the forecast period, the usage of endoscopy has been limited to emergency procedures almost in all hospitals.
