Safety Lancet Market Analysis

Global Safety Lancet Market Overview

Safety Lancet Market Size was valued at USD 2.89 Billion in 2023. The Global Safety Lancet industry is projected to grow from USD 3.23 Billion in 2024 to USD 5.45 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.56% during the forecast period (2024 - 2032).

A safety lancet is a small piece of medical equipment that is used for capillary blood sampling; it looks like a scalpel attached to a double-edged needle or blade. Lancets are a single user device and can be used for punchers, as for example finger sticks in order to obtain small blood specimens. A safety blood lancet is basically disposable.

The lancet market is a vital and dynamic component of the healthcare industry. The rise in developments in the devices of the healthcare industry such as treatment and prevention of several diseases and diagnosis is the major factor contributing to the growth of the safety lancet market. All the components of the health care industry play an important role in the safety lancet market size.  The increasing chronic diseases such as dyslipidemia, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia, and the increasing incidents of homecare diagnosis are some other major factors contributing to the growth of the safety lancet market.  Moreover, the high demand for the use of disposable blood lancet for pain-free diagnosis of hemoglobin, fat level, blood sugar level, and other important blood components are lily to propel the growth of the safety lancet market. The disposable lancet decreases the risk of the transmission of infection and blood transfusion which is again contributing to the growth of the global blood lancet market.

In December 2023, the country of India. Medtronic Private Limited, a business fully owned by Medtronic plc (NYSE: MDT), has introduced the Symplicity™ Spyral renal denervation system (RDN) for the treatment of hypertension. RDN, or Renal Denervation, is a less invasive therapeutic procedure that specifically focuses on nerves next to the kidneys, which may become hyperactive and result in hypertension. Medtronic has just received permission from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for a system that has been developed over the course of 10 years of clinical research and development. This system has also been approved by regulatory authorities in India. 

The Symplicity SpyralTM blood pressure method has shown clinical effectiveness in decreasing elevated blood pressure, thereby minimizing significant health hazards. This treatment is minimally invasive and specifically targets the nerves surrounding the kidneys that can become hyperactive and lead to high blood pressure. Following sedation, the physician creates a small cut and introduces an extremely slender tube (catheter) into the artery that leads to the kidney. Subsequently, the physician employs the catheter to alleviate the heightened activity of the nerves linked to the kidney. The tube is extracted, without leaving any implant in place.

And a detailed analysis of the global safety lancet market forecast is also included in the report.

November 2022: Owen Mumford (Oxford, UK) showcased a range of advanced medical products, including safety pen needles, a venous blood collection kit, and capillary blood sample tools. The Unifine SafeControl device is a component of the company's range of safety pens used for administering insulin injections. Its purpose is to provide protection to medical personnel while ensuring a satisfactory degree of control. The Unistik Touch safety lancet by Owen Mumford incorporates comfort zone technology to minimize the discomfort associated with capillary blood sampling. The objective of the development of the Unistik Touch safety lancet was to simplify the procedure of obtaining capillary samples.  Users can activate the gadget by simply touching it on the designated area, causing the device to immediately power on. By implementing an automatic retraction mechanism, the device minimizes the chances of contamination, damage, and unauthorized reuse of the needle.

In June 2022, the CAES procured the Defense Logistics Agency's (DLA) Qualified Manufacturers List Class V (QML-V) rating for the cross-point switch. The customers of the company can be certain that these switches succeeded in going through the hardest trials and toughest test standards, thus making them suitable for use in the aerospace and defense industry.

In May 2021, Owen Mumford will add a capillary blood sampling device to their Unistik® Touch Portfolio, which will handle capillaries when very high amounts of blood are needed. This new contact-activated safety lancet (Blade: 2.0mm x 1.5mm) was created to provide a single-touch means of collecting capillary blood samples of up to 500 μl of blood. Unistik® Touch has one-touch activation to achieve simple capillary blood sampling procedures. There are various sizes of Unistik® Touch that cater to different volumes of blood that can be drawn employing Comfort Zone Technology® (CZT®). CZT®, on the other hand, is made up of several surface pressure points situated at the end closer to the patient on this safety lancet, which improves comfort while pressing against the site where a sample is being taken from during phlebotomy.
