Technavio Says the Peripheral IV Catheter Market Will See Steady Growth Through 2019


Thanks to rapid advances in medical technology, the peripheral IV catheter market in the US is expected to grow at a CAGR of almost 6% from 2015-2019, says Technavio.

About the Report

The new market research report from Technavio concentrates on the pervasive use of peripheral IV catheters in hospitals to deliver fluids, electrolytes, and medication to patients. Technological innovations have led to the development of catheters that reduce hematoma-related complications and bloodstream infections.

"The use of short peripheral IV catheters prevents the transfer of blood-borne pathogens to healthcare workers, housekeeping staff, or visitors. These catheters also reduce the risk of mucocutaneous blood exposure among people in hospitals," says Faisal Ghaus, Vice President of Technavio.

The latest report by Technavio also emphasizes the growing use of power-injectable closed catheters used to inject contrast media into veins during CT scans. Such catheters are made of a polyurethane material and can tolerate high pressure with a minimal decrease in flexibility.

The new Technavio report covers the present scenario and the growth propects of the peripheral IV catheter market in the US from 2015-2019. To calculate the market size, the report considers revenue generated from sales of short peripheral IV catheters and integrated or closed catheters.
