Neurovascular stents Market: Overview

The neurovascular stent is either made-up of polymer or metal and it is a minute flexible device that appears to be like a tube. This device is used in treating different conditions of the brain like the formation of stenosis in blood vessels and for treating ischemic stroke. Neurovascular stents are capable of rapid restoration of blood flow due to which they are used in thrombectomy for cases of acute embolic stroke. The cases of ischemic stroke have led to an increased rate of mortality and disability among people. The vascular system of the brain may sometimes have complex disorders which can be treated with the help of neurovascular stents.

Even though the structure of these devices is complex, the stents are used for permanent implants. The patients undergoing such surgeries feel exhausted after the procedure and may return to their normal routine within a week. These stents are made with a metal named nitinol, which is a nickel-titanium alloy having a diameter of 10 to 20 millimeters (about 0.79 in). These stents are not like the drug-eluting ones that are used for cardiovascular diseases.

Neurovascular stents Market: Growth Drivers

• Growing demand for neurovascular stents used for treating brain aneurysms to drive market demand.

Growing cases of cerebral aneurysms and brain aneurysms in various nations across the globe have led to increased use of carotid artery stents and it has generated maximum revenue in recent times. A long hollow tube passes through the artery to reach the carotid artery which is narrowed in the neck. Many patients are opting for these less invasive surgeries, especially in the North American region. Weak artery walls and ruptured blood vessels of the brain lead to ischemic strokes.

The number of investments made for healthcare facilities in developing nations has also grown significantly in recent times. These surgical procedures are minimally invasive due to which the demand for neurovascular stents will grow significantly during the forecast period. A catheter is used for performing a small incision in the artery. The cases of complication and risk are reduced to a great extent because of such small incisions and all of these factors will drive the global neurovascular stents market growth.

Neurovascular stents Market: Restraints

•  Increasing government regulations to restrict market expansion

Stringent regulatory policies adopted by the government of various nations will hamper the growth of the market in the long run. The unavailability of good healthcare infrastructure and lack of skilled professionals will restrain the market growth. The standardization and approval of the new innovative products is an expensive and lengthy procedure, and it will impede the market growth

Neurovascular stents Market: Opportunities

• Rising acceptance of minimally invasive surgical procedures to provide market growth opportunities.

The complications and the risk associated with the use of neurovascular stents are reduced to a great extent due to the use of newly launched products and innovative products in the market. These products make the procedure minimally invasive as compared to the traditional procedures used by surgeons in the past. Favorable reimbursement policies adopted by patients in developed regions across the globe will provide good opportunities for the growth of the global neurovascular stents market. These procedures have a success rate of 89% and this serves to be a major opportunity for the growth of this market.

Neurovascular stents Market: Challenges

• Neurovascular stents are expensive, and this happens to be a major challenge in the growth of the market.

The market growth will be obstructed due to the high cost of the products used in these minimally invasive procedures. Developing economies will suffer to a greater extent as these surgeries are extremely expensive. The reimbursement policies in developing nations are not as favorable as the ones provided in developed nations across the globe.

Neurovascular stents Market: Segmentation

The global neurovascular stents market is segmented on the basis of product type, material, end-user, and region.

The global market segments based on types are the intracranial stents segment and the carotid artery stents segment. The carotid artery stent market is expected to have a larger market share and it will grow at a compound annual growth rate of about 5.8% in the coming years. The cases of cerebral aneurysms and brain aneurysms have increased in recent times. These tents are placed in the arteries permanently. The need for these neurovascular stents has increased in recent times due to the technological advancements taking place. The need for intracranial stents has also grown to a great extent and it is estimated to project a higher compound annual growth rate in the long run.

Based on the end user, the global market segments are the hospital segment, ambulatory surgical units, and others. The largest share will be held by the hospital segment, and it will grow at a compound annual growth rate of 5.7%. Hospitals provide minimally invasive surgeries for several diseases and make use of technologically advanced products. Hospital procedures also support reimbursement policies and provide better healthcare facilities. Quality treatments and cost-effective treatments are provided at the ambulatory surgical units due to which the preference of the patients for these centers has also grown in recent times.

By material, the market is divided into metal and polymer. Based on material, the metals segment is expected to generate maximum revenue in the long run as these stents provide better visibility and they are more resistant as compared to the other materials. Metal stents also provide biocompatibility due to which they are preferred in many procedures. Sudden closure of the vessel is prevented with the help of metal stents, and it is extremely favorable for the insertion of the balloon.

Recent Developments:

• In 2018, Intracranial neurovascular stents of class 2 were recalled by the U.S. FDA. It was because of the coating damage of the delivery catheter. 
• In 2017, Ceronovus was introduced by Johnson and Johnson, which would provide effective care in cases of stroke. This strategy was adopted to focus on developing innovative products.
• In 2016, Sequent medical incorporated was acquired by Terumo Corporation for the development of a new device to treat aneurysm embolization.
