Embolic Protection Devices Market Trends

• The growing incidence of cardiac diseases and the adoption of PCI are driving market growth.

Market CAGR for embolic protection devices is driven by the rising prevalence of cardiovascular disorders and neurovascular diseases among people, technological advancements in embolic protection devices, and increasing product launches by key market players in the diagnostic field are some of the prominent factors driving the market revenue growth. In addition, advancing demand for minimally invasive surgeries and growing government initiatives in research and development activities for pre-diagnostics contribute to revenue growth of the embolic protection devices market. Embolic Protection Devices (EPDs) capture blood and luminal debris inside the Saphenous Vein Grafts (SVG), preventing distal embolization during stenting. The most effective evidence-based method for periprocedural Myocardial Infarction and Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events reduction during SVG treatments is to use EPDs. The American College of Cardiology recommends using EPDS where it is physically possible.

Additionally, increasing product launches and investment by key market players and initiatives by federal government agencies in the diagnostic field contribute to market revenue growth. For instance, in June 2022, Conformal Medical, Inc., a medical device firm manufacturing next-generation LAAO technology, announced the beginning of the CONFORM pivotal trial, with the first patients enrolled at two U.S. sites. The Investigational Product Exemption (IDE) research will compare the safety and efficacy of the firm's CLAAS System to commercially marketed LAAO devices to support FDA pre-market approval.

Technological improvements and breakthroughs in embolic protection devices are expected to boost the business outlook over the next ten years. Distal occlusion devices, distal filter devices, and proximal occlusion/flow-reversal devices, among other innovations, are intended to avoid embolic debris during endovascular operations. For instance, Medtronic's Mo. Ma Ultra proximal cerebral protection device uses a double-occlusion balloon system to guarantee proximal embolic protection before passing a carotid lesion. Continuous R&D targeted at enhancing these devices' efficacy, safety, and ease of use will contribute to their increased acceptance.

Government bodies, Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) and educational institutes across various regions are spreading awareness about cardiovascular and neurovascular diseases and their possible treatment by launching awareness programs driving the embolic protection devices market revenue.
