Intra-Abdominal Pressure Measurement Devices Market Size & Share Analysis - Growth Trends & Forecasts (2024 - 2029)

Intra-Abdominal Pressure Measurement Devices Market Analysis

The intra-abdominal pressure measurement devices market is anticipated to register a CAGR of about 8.6% during the forecast period.

• COVID-19 significantly impacted the abdominal pressure measurement devices market during the initial phases since the import, export, and approvals of medical devices were restricted or delayed due to the pandemic. However, since the restrictions were lifted, the sector bounced back well. Over the last two years, increased intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) measurement devices, new product launches, and a high abdominal compartment syndrome prevalence have contributed to the market recovery.
• Certain factors driving the market's growth include the increasing prevalence of intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH), abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS), and technological advancements. According to the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) 2021 report, the number of people who had undergone kidney transplantation in 2021 in the United States was 24,670. In addition, there were 90,483 persons on the kidney transplant waiting list. 
• According to an article published in February 2022 in PubMed, elevated IAP was highly prevalent after kidney transplantation and was independently associated with delayed graft function, postoperative complications, and absence of renal function recovery. IAP measurement needs bladder catheterization, which is a simple, standardized method. 
• Since patients who have undergone kidney transplantation need monitoring of IAP to detect further complications and considering the number of kidney transplantations, the demand for IAP measurement devices is likely to rise, thereby boosting the market growth. 
• According to a January 2022 publication in Critical Care Medicine, ACS was detected more frequently in trauma centers (TC) than in non-trauma centers (NTC). As per the same source, ACS is more likely secondary to fluid overload in non-NTC, while it is anticipated to be secondary to shock in TC. Furthermore, increased research activities relating to IAH and ACS will likely promote the market during the forecast period since these will likely increase demand for IAP devices. 
• According to an article published in September 2022 in the Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) Journal, IAH is associated with a poor prognosis and an increased need for surgical interventions with associated morbidity and mortality. In addition, trauma patients with ACS have more complications, mechanical ventilation, organ failure, and extended stay. IAH and ACS develop in the presence of tense abdominal distension. The rise in IAP causes tissue hypoperfusion which can lead to multiple organ dysfunction syndromes and impair the function of nearly every organ system. 
• IAP monitoring has proven to significantly improve patient survival among patients in the Intensive Care Unit with IAH and/or ACS. Hence considering the importance of IAP monitoring, the intra-abdominal pressure measurement devices market will likely witness growth over the forecast period. Given the rising prevalence of IAP hypertension and the importance of IAP monitoring, the intra-abdominal pressure measurement devices market will likely witness growth over the forecast period. However, less utilization of IPMDs in general surgery and false negative results will likely restrain the market growth over the forecast period.

Intra-Abdominal Pressure Measurement Devices Industry Segmentation

As per the scope of the report, intra-abdominal pressure measurement devices aid in the measurement of intra-abdominal pressure that is used to identify children at risk ofIAH and ACS.

IAH and ACS are most likely to occur in major fluid resuscitation, severe gut edema, intraperitoneal or retroperitoneal bleeding, or ascites. Patient groups may include trauma, burns, septic shock, and post-abdominal surgery. 

The intra-abdominal pressure measurement devices market is segmented by product (disposables and equipment), type (muscle and abdomen), end user (hospitals, trauma centers, other end users), and geography (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and Rest of the World). The report offers the value (in USD million) for the above segments.
