Urinary Incontinence Treatment Devices Market – Snapshot

The global urinary incontinence treatment devices market is driven by high prevalence and rapidly increasing incidence of urinary incontinence across the globe. The global market was valued at US$ 2.21 Bn in 2018 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of 7.5% from 2019 to 2027 to reach US$ 4.20 Bn by 2027. High growth of the market is attributed to increase in adoption, easy availability of electrical vaginal stimulation devices, and rise in demand for minimally invasive or non-surgical products across the globe.

Urinary incontinence is defined as involuntary release of urine due to loss of bladder control. Millions of people across the world are affected by urinary incontinence and women are more likely to be affected than men. Urinary incontinence is highly underreported primarily due to embarrassment to speak about it. Over 500 million people across the globe are affected by the condition and its incidence increases with age. Several factors such as urinary tract infection, weakening of pelvic floor muscles & urethral sphincters, menopause, pregnancy & childbirth, and post radical prostatectomy surgery in men lead to the development of urinary incontinence symptoms.

According to the International Continence Society, around 12% (both men and women) of the global geriatric population is affected by overactive bladder and its incidence increases with age. In the past few years, various treatment devices such as urethral slings, electrical stimulation devices, artificial urinary sphincters, and catheters have been developed and are increasingly used for effective management of urinary incontinence. Rise in demand for minimally invasive surgery and non-invasive treatment devices and new product launches in the electrical stimulation devices segment are projected to accelerate the growth of the global urinary incontinence treatment devices market during the forecast period.

The global urinary incontinence treatment devices market has been segmented based on product, incontinence type, end-user, and region. In terms of product, the market has been classified into urethral slings, electrical stimulation devices, artificial urinary sphincters, and catheters. The urethral slings segment has been bifurcated into female slings and male slings. The female slings sub-segment dominated the urethral slings segment in 2018. The sub-segment is projected to gain market share from 2019 to 2027. The electrical stimulation devices segment has been categorized into implantable and non-implantable.
