Anesthesia Laryngeal Masks Sector: Growth Drivers and Challenges
Growth Drivers
- Increasing Penetration of Laparoscopic Minimally Invasive Surgeries - Anesthesia and laryngeal masks are widely used in intensive care units, operating rooms, and emergency rooms for airway management and maintenance of anesthetic gases/vapours. Increasing use of laparoscopic minimally invasive procedures is also a market trend. Laryngeal masks are used as airway management devices during these procedures because they maintain hemodynamic stability during insertion/removal and reduce postoperative cough, sore throat, and morbidity.
- Increasing Awareness about its Benefits- Nowadays, with the help of social media and campaigns there is a lot of awareness about the importance and benefits of anesthesia laryngeal masks. This further is driving the growth of anesthesia laryngeal masks market in the projected period.
Challenges
- Increasing Competition Leading to Price Fluctuation - There are various limitations and drawbacks to anesthesia inhalation masks, which might limit the market's growth at some point. The main drawbacks of anesthesia laryngeal masks, for instance, are the inability to close the tracheal from the esophagus, the risk of aspiration and the limitation in airway pressure which is caused by inadequate sealing. An alternative to ETT is the use of analgesia laryngeal masks. This growing competition at times leads to price fluctuations by the vendor that can be complex to figure out for the customers. As a result, this is predicted to hamper the market expansion in the upcoming future.
