The intermittent pneumatic compression (ipc) devices market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.57 billion in 2025 to $1.7 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing incidence of deep vein thrombosis, rising use of preventive compression therapy in hospitals, expansion of post-surgical care protocols, improvements in pneumatic compression design, growing clinical awareness of ipc benefits.
The intermittent pneumatic compression (ipc) devices market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.29 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing demand for home-use thrombosis prevention devices, rising adoption of connected medical compression systems, expansion of outpatient and home-based care models, growing focus on preventive vascular healthcare, increasing technological advancements in compression therapy. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of portable ipc devices, rising use of ipc for home-based dvt prevention, growing integration of smart pressure control systems, expansion of sequential compression technologies, enhanced focus on patient compliance and safety.
The increasing number of patients with spinal cord injuries is expected to drive the growth of the intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) devices market in the coming years. A spinal cord injury involves damage to the spinal cord that leads to loss of function, often resulting in varying levels of paralysis and sensory loss below the site of injury. The growing adoption of robotic exoskeletons for spinal cord injury patients is fueled by their ability to enhance mobility by enabling powered limb movement and upright walking during rehabilitation. Intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) devices are used in the management of spinal cord injuries to reduce the risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) by enhancing blood circulation through sequential compression of the lower limbs. For example, in May 2023, according to the Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center, a US-based organization, approximately 18,000 new spinal cord injury cases were recorded in the United States in 2023, an increase from around 17,900 cases in 2022. Therefore, the rising number of patients with spinal cord injuries is contributing to the growth of the intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) devices market.
Major companies operating in the intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) devices market are emphasizing technological advancements, such as intelligent vascular refill-responsive compression systems, which enhance blood flow and reduce venous stasis by adjusting compression cycles according to each patient’s real-time vascular refill patterns. Intelligent vascular refill-responsive compression systems employ sensor-based algorithms to measure refill time and tailor intermittent compression delivery, thereby improving therapeutic effectiveness, boosting circulation, and strengthening venous thromboembolism (VTE) prevention outcomes. For example, in November 2024, Cardinal Health, a US-based healthcare and medical products company, introduced the Kendall SCD SmartFlow Compression System, the newest generation in its Kendall product line. The system incorporates Vascular Refill Detection (VRD) technology along with a sequential, gradient, circumferential sleeve design to move more blood per hour than uniform compression, offering clinicians a more efficient, dependable, and user-friendly solution for preventing VTE and managing pain and swelling associated with venous stasis.
In December 2024, SHS Capital, a Germany-based private equity firm focused on investing in innovative healthcare companies, acquired a majority stake in Medizintechnik Rostock GmbH for an undisclosed amount. Through this acquisition, SHS Capital seeks to support MTR’s succession planning while reinforcing its core medical technology operations and facilitating nationwide expansion to improve patient access to homecare therapies across Germany. Medizintechnik Rostock GmbH is a Germany-based medical technology and homecare solutions provider that offers home sequential compression devices as part of its compression therapy services.

Intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) devices are inflatable sleeves designed to prevent blood clots by applying external pressure to the legs through compressed air and a pump. These devices consist of cuffs that periodically inflate and deflate, facilitating blood flow by compressing and releasing the affected area. IPC is commonly used to enhance limb circulation, prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and manage conditions such as lymphedema.
The main types of intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) devices are designed for addressing issues related to deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a medical condition characterized by the development of blood clots within deep veins, most commonly found in the legs. These devices are available through various distribution channels, including clinics, pharmacies, online channels, and other offline channels, and cater to different applications, including both home use and hospital use.
