Cardiovascular treatment: largest treatment type segment
Factors such as rheumatic heart disease, hypertension, obesity, and diabetes are the key factors contributing to the increasing prevalence of cardiac diseases globally. This has increased the cost burden of individuals and governments in various countries. To treat such diseases, there is a need for cardiovascular treatments such as Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting and Arrhythmia Treatment which utilize coronary stents and catheters that also can be used for therapeutic and diagnostic purposes. Rising number of atrial fibrillation and angiography cases have fueled the demand for such catheters in the market.
According to Amber Chourasia, a lead analyst at Technavio for research on health and wellness, "Increasing adoption of the robot-assisted surgical platform, growing number of specialized hospitals, and out-patient setting centers such as cath-labs and electrophysiology centers have increased the number of cardiovascular diagnostic and treatment procedures, which have further augmented the market growth. The increasing adoption of technology and innovative products is another significant factor, which draws patients in medical tourism market for cardiovascular treatments."
