Smoke Evacuation Device Market Trends

• Increasing developments in minimally invasive surgical equipment

The growth of the smoke evacuation device market is driven by a rising patient preference for minimally invasive procedures, such as capsule endoscopy, laparoscopy, and colonoscopy, among others. As minimally invasive surgeries have shown healthier results than open surgeries and are continuously gaining attention as a reliable and safe method of operation. In addition, these surgeries also help the lasers to produce a tremendous amount of heat for surgical smoke collection. Thus, removing the smoke from a closed environment like surgical rooms and operation theatres is propelling the market growth.

Moreover, according to the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, about 11.4 million cosmetic surgeries were performed globally in 2019, nearly 7.1% higher compared to the preceding year. Thus, effective measures for the evacuation of smoke and aerosols must be taken near infected patients during aerosol-generating procedures to significantly reduce the risk of transmission. Therefore, with the adoption of smoke evacuation devices during the surgical procedure, smoke releases increase the need to be absorbed owing to its harmful toxic compound which in turn propels the growth of the market.

Thus, rising number of plastic surgery and increasing preference to the minimally invasive surgical equipment are bolstering the global evacuation device market.
