Needles are slender, pointed instruments utilized in medical procedures for multiple purposes, including injections, blood collection, fluid aspiration, and tissue sampling. They typically consist of a hollow tube attached to a hub, which connects to a syringe or another medical device.
The primary types of needles are conventional needles and safety needles. Conventional needles refer to standard, non-safety needles used in medical procedures such as injections, blood draws, and other applications. These needles come in various materials such as stainless steel, plastic, glass, and peek, each used for specific applications such as surgical suture needles, pen needles for diabetes, blood collection needles, ophthalmic procedure needles, dental needles, insufflation needles, among others. They are utilized by various end-users such as hospitals, clinics, diagnostic centers, research institutions, home-based care, and others.

The increasing number of ambulatory surgical centers (ASCs) is set to drive the growth of the needle market in the coming years. ASCs are specialized healthcare facilities that focus on providing outpatient surgical procedures, eliminating the need for overnight hospital stays. The rise in ASCs is attributed to technological advancements, the demand for outpatient procedures, and the appeal of specialized care. Needles play a vital role in ASCs, enabling various procedures such as injections, suturing, and tissue sampling. They are essential for delivering medications, drawing blood, and ensuring precise wound closure. For instance, a report by Olympus America Inc. in July 2023 revealed that ASCs increased from 6,109 facilities last year to 6,223 in 2023, with an expected 12% growth over the next five years. Thus, the growing number of ASCs is fueling the needle market's expansion.
Key players in the needle market are concentrating on developing innovative solutions, such as cutting-edge conventional transbronchial needles, to revolutionize minimally invasive diagnostics.
