Urinary Incontinence Market Trends



  • Rising investment in research and development of new drugs to propel market growth


The market for urinary incontinence devices is expanding as urological illnesses become more common and sophisticated incontinence devices are developed. The market for urinary incontinence devices is expanding due to an older population that is more susceptible to urological issues, an increase in the demand for minimally invasive procedures, and other factors. In addition, more individuals with urine incontinence are anticipated to abandon conventional practices soon. The prevalence of associative urological illnesses is rising, which helps the market grow. Thus, this factor is driving the market CAGR.


One of the main variables projected to fuel product demand ly is the rising prevalence of urological illnesses, such as urine retention, cystitis, benign prostatic hyperplasia, urinary incontinence, and kidney stones that cause bladder dysfunction. The market demand for these goods is anticipated to increase due to the growing number of patients who need catheterization for the management and drainage of urine. For instance, according to the National Health Service (NHS) in England, about 34% of women and about 61% of men suffer from disorders affecting the lower urinary tract. According to Phoenix Physical Therapy, 200 million people ly are reportedly impacted by UI. Thus, the need for urinary catheters for post-operative convenience has increased due to the rising incidence of urological dysfunctions and associated procedures. During the anticipated time frame, this is anticipated to fuel market expansion. The causes of urinary retention are more frequent neurological disorders, posterior urethral strictures, and bladder-neck obstructions. When the essential requirements for reimbursement are satisfied, intermittent catheterization is reimbursed by Medicare and Medicaid. The Medicaid program pays a patient for 120 intermittent catheters per month. While the Medicare program only permits reimbursement for up to 200 sterile and single-use intermittent catheters per month, the reimbursement includes straight, code, catheter kits, and various brands with hydrophilic & antimicrobial coatings. Thus, it is anticipated that this aspect will accelerate Urinary Incontinence market revenue ly.

Indwelling catheters are not recommended in favor of these devices because they frequently cause UTIs. The segment is partly expanding because these catheters are covered by Medicaid and Medicare programs, hence contributing in the growth of the urinary incontinence market.
