Pulmonary Embolism Drugs Market size was valued at USD 1.76 billion in 2024 and is set to cross USD 3.85 billion by the end of 2037, expanding at more than 6.1% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2025-2037. In the year 2025, the industry size of pulmonary embolism drugs is estimated at USD 1.84 billion.
The growth of the market can be attributed to the increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases owing to the malfunction of arteries. Cardiovascular diseases are associated with blood vessels or the heart. It is a medical condition in which the circulation of blood to the brain, heart, and body is reduced owing to blood clots. Based on the data provided by the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2019, around 17.9 million people were observed to be suffering from cardiovascular disease.
In addition to these, global market trends such as, rising awareness of healthy lifestyles promoting the importance of early diagnosis and a surge in the cases of cancer are estimated to expand the market size over the forecast period. Pulmonary embolism is observed to cause a significant number of cancers in the global population. For instance, around 5% of cancer-related deaths are accounted by pulmonary emboli which is a type of blood clot in the lungs. Furthermore, people suffering from cancer associated with the brain, lungs, stomach, and people who are noticed to be undergoing chemotherapy are at higher risk of getting pulmonary embolism. For instance, it was projected that there is estimated to be around 22 million cancer survivors owing to chemotherapy by the year 2032. Hence, all these factors are anticipated to influence the market growth positively over the forecast period.
Growth Drivers
Growing Prevalence of Bone Fractures - Bone fracture is one of the major reasons to cause of pulmonary embolism since during bone injury, fat around the muscle turns into broken blood vessels. When these symptoms are developed owing to a lack of medical attention, they turn into embolism syndrome. For instance, it was anticipated that nearly 1 million individuals suffer from bone fractures annually.
Rising Awareness of Pulmonary Embolism Across the Globe - In modern times, owing to the developing medical technology and the launch of new innovative diagnostic devices has spurred awareness of the early diagnosis of pulmonary embolism which is anticipated to hike the market growth over the forecast period. It was estimated that around 35% of people lose their lives before getting any sort of diagnosis and treatment.
Increasing Prevalence of Pulmonary Embolism (PE) - The prevalence of pulmonary embolism is so high that it is third behind heart attack and stroke. For instance, approximately 300,000 people lose their lives every year in the United States.
Growing Incidences of Heart Failure to Boost Market Growth - Heart failure is also considered to be one of the major causes of pulmonary embolism. For instance, it was estimated that approximately 6 million Americans aged above 20 have heart failure while 900,000 new cases of heart failure are diagnosed every year in the American region.
