Market Trends of South Africa Neurology Devices Industry
This section covers the major market trends shaping the South Africa Neurology Devices Market according to our research experts:
Sacral Nerve Stimulation Devices is the Segment under Neurostimulation Devices that is Expected to Grow Fastest during the Forecast Period
The sacral nerve stimulation devices are mostly used for patients for whom drug therapy or other types of medications are not successful. It is performed with the help of a small device, which is capable of sending electrical impulses to the targeted sacral nerves located in the lower back region. These devices are found to be successful in treating bladder problems. Hence, with increasing incidences of overactive bladder, the sacral nerve stimulation devices segment is expected to grow during the forecast period.
Sacral nerve stimulation devices are an effective and safe treatment for patients suffering from fecal and urinary dysfunction. Increasing demand for minimally invasive therapy, rising prevalence of urinary bladder diseases, and technological advancements such as the introduction of novel coatings and engineering strategies are the main factors driving the growth of the market.
In South Africa, Medtronic Plc offers "The InterStim II System" the neurostimulator for bladder and bowel control which delivers sustained improvements in quality of life for people with overactive bladder (OAB), non-obstructive urinary retention, and chronic fecal incontinence (FI).
