Compression Therapy Market Dynamics and Trends

The global compression therapy market growth is driven by the rise in the incidence of vein disorders such as deep vein thrombosis, leg ulcers, and blood clots and extensive usage of these products in sports medicine is driving the global compression therapy market during the forecast period.

The presence of a large target patient population is driving the market growth in the forecast period  

The target population for compression therapy products includes patients suffering from lifestyle-related diseases and vascular diseases, such as obesity, diabetes, lymphedema, DVT, and varicose veins. The rising geriatric population across the globe is considered a major factor supporting market growth as geriatric individuals are more susceptible to various health conditions. These factors are driving the demand and adoption of various treatment procedures, including compression therapy, among patients. Moreover, compression therapy products are increasingly being preferred as the first line of treatment for major target indications and for post-surgery rehabilitation. In addition, the rising launch of compression therapy devices is also expected to drive the growth of this market over the forecast period. For instance, in May 2020, AIROS Medical, Inc., a medical technology manufacturer specializing in compression therapy products that treat cancer-related lymphedema and venous complications, launched an updated AIROS 6 sequential compression therapy device and arm plus garments following multiple regulatory approvals. Such launches in the market will lead to increased adoption by the sportspersons and others, driving the market growth.

The lack of universally accepted standards for compression products will hamper the growth of the market in the forecast period

The US FDA does not have any set standards for compression garments. Currently, the pressure exerted by stockings is determined by manufacturers on the basis of their laboratory measurements due to the lack of uniform standards for graduated compression stockings worldwide. In addition, factors such as the elasticity and stiffness of stocking material and the size and shape of a patient’s legs can affect the overall pressure exerted by the garment. Considering the lack of uniform standards in the market, a wide range of products are offered at different price points with varying levels of medical efficacy. These factors will hamper the growth of the market in the forecast period.  

COVID-19 Impact Analysis on Compression Therapy Market

Covid-19 has significantly impacted the compression therapy market growth due to the increase in venous disorders in hospitalized patients because of being in on position for a  long time during their hospital stay. For instance, according to the study published in Plos One, titled 'Upper extremity deep vein thrombosis (UEDVT) in COVID-19, incidence and correlated risk factors in a cohort of non-ICU patients' in January 2022, despite sufficient prophylaxis, UEDVT can develop in COVID-19 patients, particularly those who use helmet continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) ventilation. This will lead to increased adoption of compression therapy in hospitalized patients, thereby expected to drive the market growth during the pandemic.

The majority of the athletes said the CGs had a beneficial effect on them. CGs were utilized more during athletic involvement than afterward. This will further drive the growth of compression garments during the adoption of compression garments in sports activities and after the injuries.
