What Is Covered Under Intravascular Catheters Market?

An intravascular catheter is a device typically comprised of a hollow fiber through which blood flows and an immunoisolating membrane that separates the transplanted cells from the blood. The intravascular catheters are used for the administration of fluids, medication, blood products, and nutrition, which typically go into a large vein in the arm or chest. The main intravascular catheter products include short PIVC and integrated/closed PIVC. Short peripheral intravenous catheters (PIVC) are less than or equal to 3 inches in length and are used for intravenous medication and are predominantly inserted in general wards. The different intravascular catheter applications include oncology, gastroenterology, renal disease, infectious diseases and other applications which are used by end-users including hospitals, clinics, ambulatory surgical center and homecare.

What Is The Intravascular Catheters Market Growth Forecast?

The intravascular catheters market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $15.15 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing demand for infection-resistant devices, rising adoption of homecare infusion therapies, expansion of chronic disease management programs, growing focus on patient safety protocols, increasing use of advanced catheter designs.

What Is The Driver Of The Intravascular Catheters Market?

The rising hospitalization rate owing to the high prevalence of chronic diseases is driving the growth of the intravascular catheters market. Globally, the prevalence of chronic illnesses and ailments is rising. Intravascular catheters are used for taking samples for tests and for fluids, nutrients, and blood intake during the treatment of chronic diseases. For instance, in November 2024, according to the American Journal of Managed Care, a U.S.-based peer-reviewed healthcare journal focused on managed care and health policy, the weekly hospitalization rate reached a peak of 13.5 per 100,000 (range 1.1–10.2) in early February 2025. Therefore, the rising hospitalization rate owing to the high prevalence of chronic diseases is expected to propel the growth of the intravascular catheters industry over the coming years.
