Market Dynamics
The major factors driving the growth of this market are rising innovations in new product launches and growing adoption rates of monopolar electrosurgery. And continuous development of surgical instruments is key factors driving the growth of the monopolar electrosurgical instruments market.
The rising innovations in new products launches will drive the market
One of the biggest enemies of minimally invasive surgery is bleeding. The ongoing desire to improve hemostasis and its efficacy has led to the rapid evolution of electrosurgical technology. In monopolar electrosurgery, tissue is cut and coagulated by completing an electrical circuit that includes a high-frequency oscillator and amplifiers within the ESU, the patient, the connecting cables, and the electrodes. Monopolar electrodes come in various shapes and forms; those with narrow or bladed tips are usually designed for cutting. Those with the larger surface in the form of grasper or ball tips produce outputs suitable for desiccation and hemostasis. Insufficient contact with patient plate could result in high current density and severe burns, so proper use of gels to enhance conductivity and reliable electrode monitoring systems is vital.
Recent advancements in electrosurgical devices include argon enhancement systems that have enabled a new element of precision and control in electrosurgical applications with benefits that include quick and efficient coagulation, a thinner, minor charring, and less tissue damage. In addition to argon-enhanced coagulation systems, Medtronic started offering the Valleylab argon gas delivery system II, which offers argon-shrouded cut and creates less surgical smoke than conventional electrosurgical cutting and enhances surgical visibility.
Growing adoption rates of monopolar electrosurgery
Electrosurgical ESUs, are becoming more popular with both routine and sophisticated veterinary procedures. Electrosurgical procedures help to reduce the time for anesthesia. In addition, less time is required for post-surgical healing.
Monopolar electrosurgery is the most commonly used electrosurgical modality. Adopting monopolar electrosurgery instrument for use in laparoscopic surgeries is likely to drive demand for these instruments in the future. The effectiveness and versatility of monopolar electrosurgery make it the most commonly used option. This type of electrosurgery offers a variety of electrosurgical waveforms that have different tissue effects. Monopolar electrosurgery uses a single pointed probe to carry electrical current from the power generator to the surgical site.
It requires an indifferent electrode, typically a large metal plate or flexible metalized plastic pad placed on skin distant from the surgical site and current passes from the tip of the probe through the patient to an indifferent electrode and completes the circuit by returning to an electrosurgical generator. All these characteristics of monopolar electrosurgery will rise its adoption rate in the market.
Risks involved in using monopolar electrosurgical instruments are some of the factors that will hamper the market
Monopolar electrosurgical energy is the most commonly used energy source during laparotomic and laparoscopic surgery. Alternate site burns during laparotomic application were the most common complication seent (i.e., ground point burns and dispersive electrode burns. Burns during laparoscopy because of insulation failure and capacitive coupling, the technological advancements introduced to eliminate these risks in patient.In recent times, insulation failure and capacitive coupling are the most common reasons for electrosurgical injury during laparoscopic procedures. However, even with long experience in the use of electrosurgery, the risks and complications are still present despite incorporating various security measures.
In Closed claims' American analysis, burns in patients from fires in the operating rooms account for about one-fifth of legal cases. More than 500 surgeons surveyed at a meeting of the American College of Surgeons (ACS) were asked if they had ever "seen or heard of insulation degradation on monopolar electrosurgical probes." Seventy-one percent of respondents answered "yes."
COVID-19 Impact On Monopolar Electrosurgical Instruments Market
Although COVID-19 is not primarily a surgical disease, it has significantly affected surgical practice in multiple ways. Several organizations have released recommendations and guidelines for addressing the COVID-19 pandemic. All the surgical procedures, as well as manufacturing of medical devices for these surgeries, were put on hold during COVID-19.
On March 1st, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommended rescheduling elective surgeries and shifting elective inpatient surgical procedures to outpatient settings when feasible. To guide the decision-making process, surgical societies have established criteria for triage and prioritization.
Monopolar Electrosurgical Instruments Market Segmentation Analysis
The hand instrument segment dominated the market
Monopolar hand instruments are the perfect extension of the surgeon's hands. The smooth, curved handles of these laparoscopic hand instruments are designed specifically to reduce fatigue and nerve damage associated with conventional surgical instruments in laparoscopic and open surgeries. The extra comfort enables multiple hand positions while grasping, cutting, dissecting and coagulation in various laparoscopic procedures.
In October 2019 a company Apyx Medical Corporation received the U.S. FDA approval to market Apyx Plasma/RF Handpiece, a single-use monopolar device.
The General Surgery segment will dominate the market in the forecast period
With the increase of diseases and geriatric population worldwide, the general surgery segment will see a rise in the market. Studies have estimated that approximately 53% of all surgical procedures are performed on patients over the age of 65. Studies estimate that approximately half of the population over the age of 65 will require surgery once in their lives. In 2019 there were almost 1.5 million surgeries in the US.
The hospital segment dominated the market
The increased adoption of technologically advanced products, patient care and focus on positive medical outcomes in hospitals will dominate this market. Monopolar electrosurgery is the most commonly used mode in surgery for cutting, fulguration and desiccation. It is usually represented by the Bovie pencil (single small probe).It has an active electrode located at the surgical site. The electrical current flows from the active electrode through the patient's body to the patient return electrode and then back to the generator. A high current density is produced at the tip of the probe, which results in thermal heating and localized destruction.
The return electrode, located on the patient's body away from the surgical site, has a large surface area and low current density. This is necessary to complete the circuit and prevent alternate burn sites as the high-frequency AC current leaves the patient's body. For optimal and safe use of this device, a healthcare professional must handle it in a hospital setting.
