Market Segmentation Synopsis
By Patient Type
The global sinus dilation devices market is segmented by patient type into adult and pediatric patients, out of which, the adult patient segment is anticipated to hold the largest market share owing to the rising prevalence of chronic rhinosinusitis in adults, which is known to cause nasal swelling, nasal polyps, allergies and others. Additionally, adults with asthma, cystic fibrosis, or other immune problems are expected to develop chronic rhinosinusitis more often than others, which is raising the need for advanced surgical procedures by utilizing sinus dilation devices.
By Product Type
The global sinus dilation devices market is segmented by product type into balloon sinuplasty devices and sinus stents/implants. Among these segments, the balloon sinuplasty devices segment is anticipated to hold the largest market share as these devices are highly preferred in the treatment of sinusitis. Balloon sinuplasty devices are used to dilate obstructed sinus ostia in patients suffering from chronic rhinosinusitis. Presently, these devices are being highly used in outpatient settings owing to the numerous benefits associated with the product, such as it doesn’t require the removal of a tissue or bone during the treatment process and causes less bleeding as compared to conventional treatment processes.
By Balloon Diameter
The global sinus dilation devices market is segmented by balloon diameter into less than 5mm, 5-10mm, and greater than 10mm. Among these segments, the less than 5mm segment is anticipated to register the largest market share owing to its increasing application in the pediatric patients’ maxillary sinus. Balloon sinuplasty devices are used in sinus surgeries to create a durable opening and enable the otolaryngologists to treat them effectively. With the increasing CRS incidents, sinus dilation devices are being increasingly used to dilate the maxillary sinus ostia for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. The balloon's standard size in the balloon dilation sinuplasty procedure is usually 5 mm or less than that. Such factors are anticipated to drive the growth of the segment in the global sinus dilation devices market.
The global sinus dilation devices market is also segmented by procedure into standalone sinus dilation and hybrid sinus dilation. The standalone sinus dilation is a minimally invasive trans-nasal procedure that utilizes balloon technology to treat frontal, maxillary, or sphenoid sinus outflow obstruction. The hybrid sinus dilation procedure, on the other hand, deals with the balloon dilation and FESS for the treatment of patients with chronic rhinosinusitis. The global sinus dilation devices market is further segmented by end-user into hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers and ENT clinics. Among these segments, the hospital segment accounted for a significant market share owing to the rising number of sinus surgery procedures in these settings, coupled with the fact that the hospitals encounter a high patient influx as compared to other healthcare facilities.
Market Drivers & Challenges
Growth Indicators
Growing Preference for Minimally Invasive Procedures
The demand for minimally invasive surgeries over the past few years have grown significantly, backed by the recent innovations and advancements in instrumentation, along with the fewer complications and less pain associated with the surgery process. Minimally invasive surgical procedures are patient-friendly as it can be done in approximately 45-50 minutes. With the increasing prevalence for chronic sinusitis, the number of surgeries has also increased significantly. Patients suffering from chronic rhinosinusitis are currently being treated with minimally invasive sinus technique (MIST), such as balloon sinuplasty. Such factors are anticipated to drive the growth of the global sinus dilation devices market.
Increasing Prevalence of Sinusitis and Technological Advancements in Sinus Dilation Devices to drive Market Growth
Sinusitis is an inflammation that commonly occurs in the lining of the sinuses and can be acute or chronic. Healthy sinuses are filled with air, but it can cause infection in an individual when they become blocked with fluid. Chronic sinusitis has become a common health problem worldwide, particularly in high atmospheric pollution levels. As a result, there is a rising need for sinus dilation devices, which is anticipated to drive the market growth. On the other hand, manufacturers across the world are highly focused on incorporating advanced technologies into the sinus dilation devices for the treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis. Emerging technologies such as flexible microsensor technology are anticipated to bring evolution to the current sinusitis treatment procedures. This technology provides real-time tracking of the balloon devices during the balloon sinus ostial dilation procedures. This technology has gained immense popularity as a highly effective minimally invasive procedure for the treatment of sinusitis, which is anticipated to drive the market growth during the forecast period.
Challenges
Risks Associated with Sinus Surgeries to Hamper Market Growth
While the demand for sinus dilation devices is increasing worldwide, influenced by the rapid increase in the occurrence of chronic sinusitis, certain factors are limiting the growth of the market worldwide. For instance, the risks associated with the procedures such as bleeding, postoperative infections, recurrent sinus infections, and others are some of the key factors anticipated to hamper the market growth.
