The increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases is expected to drive the growth of the heart transplant market in the coming years. Cardiovascular diseases encompass a range of conditions that affect the heart and blood vessels. A heart transplant is a treatment of last resort for individuals with end-stage heart failure who have not responded to other therapies.

For example, in September 2024, the British Heart Foundation, a UK-based cardiovascular research charity, reported that approximately 7.6 million people in the UK are currently affected by heart and circulatory diseases, including 4 million men and 3.6 million women. This number is expected to increase by 1 million by 2030 and could rise by an additional 2 million by 2040. As a result, the growing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases will drive the heart transplant market.
The heart transplant market is experiencing growth driven by an increased awareness of organ donation and transplantation. This awareness encompasses knowledge, understanding, and community consciousness regarding the processes, significance, and impact of these procedures in healthcare. This heightened awareness is playing a substantial role in the realm of heart transplants, leading to an expanded donor pool, reduced waiting times for recipients, and improved patient outcomes. For instance, in January 2023, the United Network for Organ Sharing, a US-based non-profit organization focused on science and education, reported a record of 42,887 organ transplants in the US in 2022, marking a 3.7% increase from the previous year. This included 9,528 liver transplants, 4,111 heart transplants, and 2,692 lung transplants, underscoring the impact of this growing awareness.

Therefore, the growing awareness about organ donation and transplantation will drive the heart transplant market.
Major companies in the heart transplant market are increasingly focused on developing innovative solutions, such as heart preservation technology, to enhance patient outcomes and improve transplant success rates. This technology significantly extends the preservation time of the heart outside the body compared to traditional ice storage, leading to better outcomes and reduced complications after transplantation. For instance, in May 2023, Xvivo Perfusion AB, a Sweden-based medical technology company, received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) application for heart preservation technology. This approval enabled the company to launch the "PRESERVE Clinical Trial," a prospective, multicenter, single-arm, open-label study focused on evaluating hearts transplanted after non-ischemic heart preservation from extended donors, including those from Donation after Circulatory Death (DCD). The key feature of Xvivo's heart preservation technology is its non-ischemic hypothermic perfusion system, which uses cold, oxygenated perfusion to preserve donor hearts during transport.
In August 2024, Getinge, a Sweden-based company specializing in medical technology and healthcare solutions, acquired Paragonix Technologies for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition allows Getinge to strengthen its capabilities in organ preservation and transportation, with a focus on improving patient outcomes in transplant procedures. Paragonix Technologies, a U.S.-based company, designs, manufactures, and sells devices used for the transport of organs for transplant.
