During the forecast period 2013 to 2019, the market for surgical equipment will be majorly driven by factors such as year on year increase in the number of surgical procedures, rise in demand for minimally invasive procedures, worldwide aging population and technological developments leading to innovative products. Due to the fact that electrosurgical devices play key role during minimally invasive procedures, rise in the demand for these procedures will in turn trigger the demand for electrosurgical devices. On the other hand, factors such as rising demand for advanced wound closure materials such as glues and fibrin sealants, implementation of Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) in the U.S., side effects associated with products leading to product recalls, and intense price competition from local manufacturers may pose significant challenges before players operating in the surgical equipment market.
