Industry Insights, Market Size, CAGR, High-Level Analysis: Blood/IV Warmers Market

The global blood/IV warmers market size was estimated at USD 662 million in 2018 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of 7.6% over the forecast period. Rise in surgical procedures worldwide, along with growing incidence of road accident fatalities is anticipated to drive the market growth. Additionally, rising demand of blood/IV warmers from ambulatory services and military/defense sectors is expected to further fuel the growth in near future. Hypothermia is among the top risk factors that can result in fatalities among patients of physical trauma. In U.S., an estimated 10 to 12 million incidents of hypothermia along with another 2 to 3 million incidents of hyperpyrexia were observed in 2016. Factors, such as blood loss due to injury/shock, extreme environments, infectious disease epidemic, natural calamities, physical trauma, and hypothermia caused by infusion of cold stored blood/IV, increases the risk of fatality. It has been observed that in U.S. out of few million incidents of IV induced hypothermia, 75.0% cases are caused in ambulatory settings. In order to prevent risk due to blood/IV induced hypothermia, portable blood/IV warmers have witnessed an increasing demand in U.S. and European Union (EU) since 2010, thereby driving the growth of the market for blood/IV warmers. Over 70.0% of patient warming demands in U.S. are met in hospitals, whereas the rest are met in remote centers, such as ambulatory services and others. Surgical procedures and hospital stays are the biggest factor that demand infusion of IV solutions or blood transfusion. In order to prevent transfusion/infusion induced hypothermia, blood/IV warmers have traditionally played an important role in preventing fatalities among citizens of developed nations. Furthermore, many surgical procedures require transplantation and implants that are often maintained well below regular body temperature in order to control microbial infection. Introduction of such implants are observed to reduce the body temperature of the patient, thereby requiring patient heating systems. Additionally, weaker patients find it difficult to regulate their body temperature and therefore, require body warming devices to help them recover better and reduce the risk of complications.
