Catheter introducer sheaths are medical tools utilized during interventional procedures to aid in the insertion and positioning of catheters within the vascular system or other bodily cavities. These sheaths typically comprise a hollow tube equipped with a dilator and hemostasis valve, intended to create a safe conduit for catheters while reducing the risks of vascular damage, bleeding, and infection.
The primary types of catheter introducer sheaths are integrated introducer sheaths and separate introducer sheaths. Integrated introducer sheaths serve the purpose of facilitating the smooth insertion and placement of catheters or other medical instruments into blood vessels or body cavities. These devices find applications in fields such as cardiology, vascular interventions, and neurology, with end users including hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, and other healthcare facilities.
The catheter introducer sheaths research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides catheter introducer sheaths market statistics, including the catheter introducer sheaths industry's global market size, regional shares, competitors with a catheter introducer sheaths market share, detailed catheter introducer sheaths market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the catheter introducer sheaths industry. This catheter introducer sheaths market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The catheter introducer sheaths market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $1.3 billion in 2024 to $1.44 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.3%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to demand for improved patient safety, enhanced imaging modalities, demand for vascular access, and feedback from healthcare providers.
The catheter introducer sheaths market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.1 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to expansion of interventional procedures, rise in minimally invasive surgery, aging population, and demand for safety and efficacy. Major trends in the forecast period include clinical research and evidence-based medicines, improvements in imaging technologies, miniaturization and integration, integration with imaging technologies, and value-based healthcare models.
The rising prevalence of cardiovascular disease is expected to drive the growth of the catheter introducer sheaths market in the coming years. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) refers to a range of conditions that affect the heart and blood vessels. The increasing rates of CVD are attributed to factors such as aging populations, unhealthy lifestyles, growing obesity rates, socioeconomic influences, and better detection methods. Catheter introducer sheaths are essential for managing cardiovascular diseases, as they provide safe and effective access to the heart and blood vessels for diagnostic and interventional procedures. For example, in June 2024, the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW), an independent government agency, reported that approximately 144,000 individuals were diagnosed with heart failure in 2022. Additionally, CVD affected 1.3 million adults, contributing to nearly 12% of the national disease burden and an estimated loss of 666,000 healthy life years in 2023. As a result, the growing prevalence of cardiovascular disease is fueling the demand for catheter introducer sheaths.
Key players in the catheter introducer sheaths market are focused on developing innovative technologies, such as the multi-access blood control septum, to enhance procedural efficiency, reduce complications, and improve patient outcomes. The multi-access blood control septum is a specialized technology integrated into catheter introducer sheaths, enabling multiple access points while maintaining controlled blood flow. For instance, in October 2023, B. Braun SE introduced the Introcan Safety 2 IV Catheter with multi-access blood control, designed to improve safety for clinicians during IV access procedures. This catheter features a blood control mechanism that minimizes the risk of blood exposure with each hub access, offering automatic protection against needlestick injuries and bloodborne pathogens. Additionally, it incorporates Double Flashback Technology for quick visual confirmation of successful vessel puncture, enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of IV access procedures.
In October 2022, Cordis acquired MedAlliance, combining Cordis's global reach with MedAlliance's innovative SELUTION SLRTM technology, a unique drug delivery system for treating artery diseases. Cordis is a US-based manufacturer of interventional vascular medical devices, while MedAlliance is a Switzerland-based company specializing in catheter introducer sheaths. This acquisition reflects the industry's focus on leveraging advanced technologies to address the evolving needs of cardiovascular care.
