This report covers market characteristics, size and growth, segmentation, regional and country breakdowns, competitive landscape, market shares, trends and strategies for this market. It traces the market’s historic and forecast market growth by geography.

The intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) devices market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.44 billion in 2024 to $1.58 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to improved disease understanding, increased awareness and diagnosis, changing healthcare policies, collaborations in clinical trials, supportive patient advocacy, physician education programs.

The intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) devices market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.16 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growing patient pool, increased focus on patient quality of life, expanding research collaborations, global health initiatives, increasing healthcare access. Major trends in the forecast period include emergence of targeted therapies, development of oral and injectable medications, investigation of immune modulation strategies, introduction of disease-modifying agents, focus on personalized medicine approaches.

The growth of the intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) devices market is anticipated to be driven by the rising number of patients with spinal cord injuries. Spinal cord injuries, which lead to varying degrees of paralysis and sensory impairment below the injury level, are being addressed with IPC devices in order to prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT) through the promotion of blood circulation via sequential compression of the lower limbs. For example, in 2023, the National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center, a US-based government organization, reported approximately 18,000 new cases of spinal cord injuries annually in the United States, with an incidence rate of around 54 cases per 1 million people. This surge in spinal cord injury cases is a key factor propelling the growth of the intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) devices market.

The increasing number of accidents is expected to contribute to the growth of the IPC devices market. Accidents, defined as unforeseen events causing harm or damage due to unintended circumstances, often result in fractures and soft-tissue injuries. IPC is utilized in the treatment of such injuries arising from accidents. For instance, in October 2023, the European Commission, a government agency in Europe, reported a 4% increase in EU road fatalities, reaching a total of 20,640 deaths compared to the previous year. This upward trend in accident-related fatalities is a significant driver for the growth of the intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) devices market.

Major players in the IPC devices market are increasingly focusing on the development of innovative devices, including wearables, to gain a competitive advantage. Wearable IPC devices, such as those designed to be worn on the arm, aim to enhance circulation and prevent deep vein thrombosis during extended periods of immobility. For instance, in March 2022, Fist Assist Devices LLC launched the world's first wearable intermittent pneumatic compression device, Fist Assist Model FA-1. This patent-protected device automates the intermittent pressure application to the arm, promoting vein dilation and aiding in arteriovenous fistula (AVF) for presurgical purposes. The device's automated nature simplifies usage, reducing the risk of user error and contributing to improved blood flow and vein dilation.

The intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) devices market consists of sales of sequential compression devices, gradient compression devices, lymphedema pumps, custom-fit intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) devices, air compression sleeves, and boots. Values in this market are ‘factory gate’ values, that is, the value of goods sold by the manufacturers or creators of the goods, whether to other entities (including downstream manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors, and retailers) or directly to end customers. The value of goods in this market includes related services sold by the creators of the goods.

The market value is defined as the revenues that enterprises gain from the sale of goods and/or services within the specified market and geography through sales, grants, or donations in terms of the currency (in USD unless otherwise specified).

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.
