Medical Suction Device Market Trends

• Rising incidences of respiratory diseases boosts market growth.

Rising cases of respiratory illnesses are increasing the demand for medical suction devices across the globe. Chronic respiratory diseases are among the most common non-communicable diseases across the world. The most common chronic respiratory diseases are Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), occupational lung diseases, asthma, and pulmonary hypertension. According to WHO, asthma affected an estimated 262 million people in 2019 and caused 461,000 deaths. It is also estimated that COPD affects over 200 million people around the globe, 65 million of whom have moderate or severe airway disease. According to data from the Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (ODPHP), more than 25 million people in the US suffered from asthma in 2020, and approximately 14.8 million adults were diagnosed with COPD. Thus, the rising incidences of respiratory diseases are expected to drive the growth of the global medical suction devices market during the study period.
