The Global Disposable Surgical Devices Market Size accounted for USD 7,432 Million in 2021 and is anticipated to reach USD 14,274 Million by 2030 with a CAGR of 7.7% from 2022 to 2030.

A disposable device is any surgical device that is intended to be used only once. Disposable devices are manufactured by medical and surgical device manufacturers all over the world. Applicators, drug tests, bandages and wraps, exam gowns, gloves, face masks, hypodermic needles, suction catheters, syringes, and surgical sponges are some examples. The primary reason for developing disposable devices is to prevent infection. When a single item is used, it cannot spread contagious agents to following patients.

The emergence of a novel coronavirus pandemic has expanded the market for disposable surgical instruments. The COVID-19 strain is highly contagious and can spread quickly. To avoid this transmission, hospitals and clinics have switched from reusable to disposable instruments. As a result of all of these factors, the disposable surgical devices market is expected to grow rapidly during the pandemic.

Market Dynamics

Injection-molded plastic is used primarily in disposable device assembly, which is done through bonding, glueing, radio-frequency welding or ultrasonic welding. Because of the high volume of single-use devices produced, automated assembly in cleanroom is obligatory to reduce human contact. Disposable devices are sterilized before leaving the manufacturing site, as opposed to reusable devices, which are frequently sterilized at the healthcare facility. The device and packaging must be sterilization-compatible.

Because it can save money by reducing medical waste, reprocessing "single use" medical devices has long been a standard procedure in American hospitals. The same FDA specifications as original equipment manufacturers must be met by a third party or hospital reprocessor before medical devices can be properly processed and reused.

Although cost may appear to be the most important consideration in the development of single-use products, disposable medical devices necessitate a careful balance of cost, performance, materials, reliability, and shelf life.

Plastics are frequently used in the production of disposables because they are relatively inexpensive and come in a variety of forms. Because of their strength, polycarbonates are used in devices such as syringes that must withstand extreme pressure. Because of its flexibility, PVC can also be used. Reusable devices, on the other hand, are usually made of more expensive, more durable materials like ceramics or steel.

Market Insights

The four categories of the global disposable surgical devices market are product, application, region, and industry. The segmentation based on the product includes cell surgical sutures & staplers, electrosurgical devices, and handheld surgical devices. Among them surgical sutures & staplers dominated the largest market share in 2021. Surgical sutures are threads that are used to close incisions or repair cuts after surgery or in the treatment of an injury. Surgical staplers, which are more precise than sutures, are also used for wound closure. Surgical stapling is a faster process.

Cardiovascular, plastic & reconstructive surgery, orthopedic, general surgery neurosurgery, obstetrics & gynecology, wound closure, and others are among the application segments included in the segmentation. In terms of application, general surgery will have the largest market share in the coming years. The increasing number of general surgeries is one of the significant factors leading to the potential expansion of the disposable surgical devices market.

Global Disposable Surgical Devices Market Geographical Competition

There are five regions that make up the global disposable surgical devices market: North America, Europe, Latin America, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, and Africa. In 2021, North America held the largest share. Because of the rising prevalence of chronic diseases such as diabetes and obesity in this region, North America held the largest the Disposable Medical Devices Market in 2020. The increasing prevalence of COVID-19, as well as the rising number of chronic diseases, will be critical growth factors. Because of the presence of large aging populations, the disposable surgical devices industry in Asia Pacific is expected to expand rapidly during the forecast period.
