What Key Factors and Trends Are Driving The Growth Laryngeal Mask Market?
The anticipated surge in medical surgical operations is set to fuel expansion of the laryngeal mask industry. When referring to surgical procedures, these involve medical activity where incisions are carried out with surgical instruments to either treat illness or restore function in the human body. Laryngeal masks are widely used as a temporary mechanism to secure an open airway during surgeries which necessitate the use of general anesthesia. They are either employed to facilitate the administration of anesthesia or as a critical emergency device for patients presenting with airway issues. As an illustration, the Aesthetic Society, a group of board certified aesthetic plastic surgeons based in the US, reported that the total count of surgical procedures rose by 2.9% between 2022 and 2023 in July 2024. Consequently, the escalating number of surgical procedures is the impetus behind the growth of the laryngeal mask industry. The prevalence of respiratory ailments on the rise is another significant driver expected to boost the expansion of the laryngeal mask market. Diseases affecting the respiratory system constitute a wide range of conditions impacting the organs and tissues that facilitate breathing. Laryngeal masks are pivotal in the management of respiratory diseases as they offer temporary airway support and enhance oxygen supply, particularly in patients with fluid accumulation in their lungs. To exemplify, the US government agency, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, disclosed a rise in tuberculosis cases from 8,320 in 2022 to 9,615 in 2023 in March 2024, an upswing of 1,295 cases. Therefore, the burgeoning number of respiratory conditions is one major factor propelling the laryngeal mask market.
