Major trends in the forecast period include technology advancements,cryotherapy and aesthetic procedures, biobanking and biopreservation, cryogenic storage solutions, rocket propulsion.

The growing demand for precise and effective laparoscopic operations is anticipated to drive the expansion of the medical robots market in the future. Laparoscopic procedures enable surgeons to perform intricate operations within the abdomen without direct manual entry into the body cavity. Medical robots are recognized for their efficiency in executing laparoscopic procedures, contributing to an increased demand for accurate and proper laparoscopic operations, thereby fostering the growth of the market. As an example, the Cleveland Clinic reported in March 2022 that over 13 million laparoscopic procedures are performed globally annually, with a projected 1% growth over the next five years. This surge in demand for precise and proper laparoscopic operations is a significant driver for the medical robots market.

The anticipated shortage of skilled surgeons is expected to drive the growth of the medical robots market in the coming years. Surgeons are highly trained medical professionals who carry out invasive procedures to treat, repair, or remove damaged or diseased tissues in the human body, often utilizing precise surgical techniques and instruments. Medical robots are utilized in hospitals to assist surgeons by performing precise, minimally invasive procedures, thereby enhancing surgical accuracy and reducing patient recovery times. For instance, in March 2023, the American Hospital Association, a U.S.-based national organization, projected that the United States will face a shortage of up to 124,000 physicians by 2033 and will need to hire 200,000 nurses annually to address the increasing demand. Consequently, the shortage of skilled surgeons is fueling the growth of the medical robots market.

Technological advancements emerge as a prominent trend shaping the medical robots market. Leading companies in the medical robots sector are actively involved in developing innovative technological solutions to bolster their market position. For example, Diligent Corporation, a healthcare robotics company based in the U.S., introduced Moxi in April 2022 - an AI-enabled robot designed to manage time-consuming logistical tasks in hospitals, such as setting up patient rooms and restocking supplies. Moxi possesses core technical features, including social intelligence, mobile manipulation, and human-guided learning, reflecting a notable stride in Diligent's product portfolio.

Major players in the medical robots market are strategically forming partnerships to drive market revenues.
