Global Inhalation Anesthesia Market Overview
The Inhalation Anesthesia Market size is expected to reach USD 1.5 Billion by 2032 at 8.3% CAGR during the forecast period 2023-2032.
Inhalational anesthetics are used for the induction and maintenance of general anesthesia as well as sedation. They are usually preferred for maintenance because they allow more precise control of the anesthetic state and do so at low cost.
The increasing geriatric population is one of the key factors driving the inhalation anesthesia market as they are highly prone to degenerative diseases and chronic illnesses, which eventually leads to a rise in surgeries and therapeutics. According to WHO, it is estimated that the world’s population aged 60 years and older are likely to double from 12% to 22% by 2050.
Various other factors such as the rise in surgical procedures, rising prevalence of cardiovascular and respiratory system-related diseases along with technological advancements, and a rise in regulatory approvals drive the growth of the market.
However, the increasing concern about greenhouse gas emissions will hamper market growth over the forecast period.
