Smoke Evacuation Devices - Market Insights, Competitive Landscape, and Market Forecast - 2030

The global smoke evacuation device market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period from 2024 to 2030. The demand for smoke evacuation devices is primarily being boosted by the increasing number of minimally invasive surgeries, the growing prevalence of obesity, and chronic diseases, and increasing technological advancements, among others. Further, the increasing device launches & approval among others are thereby contributing to the overall growth of the smoke evacuation device market during the forecast period from 2024-2030.

Smoke Evacuation Device Market Dynamics:

The smoke evacuation devices market is witnessing a positive growth in product demand owing to various factors, one of the key factors being the increase in the demand for electro surgery, the need for removing aerosolized viable bacteria during surgical procedures, and others.

In electrosurgical procedures, cautery is used for the cutting and coagulation of tissue that releases smoke. Also, the thermal destruction of tissue due to electrosurgical procedures has a repulsive odor and smoke which can obstruct the surgeon’s view at the surgical site and can also cause disease to staff who is in the operation theater room at the time of surgery. Thus, the removal of this smoke becomes very important so that the surgeon can do surgery better and can prevent themselves from toxins. Therefore, the need for the removal of smoke during surgical procedures leads to an increased demand for smoke evacuation devices.

Also, surgical smoke creates acute health effects including eye, nose & throat irritation, headache, cough, nasal congestion, asthma, and asthma-like symptoms to the people available in the operating room.

In addition, the increasing awareness regarding disease due to surgical smoke is another key factor fueling the market growth. For instance, as per the Centers for Disease and Prevention Control (CDC), 2020, the smoke may contain ultra-fine particles, toxic compounds (e.g., benzene, toluene, hydrogen cyanide), viruses (e.g., human papillomavirus), and cancer cells. Further, as per the International Federation of Perioperative Nurses (IFPN), 2022, surgical smoke should be evacuated as the first line of defense. Thus, the removal of surgical smoke becomes a very important part of a surgical procedure, ultimately increasing the overall growth of smoke evacuation devices during the forecast period.

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons 2022, the liposuction procedure in 2020 was nearly 1,525,197, and in 2022 nearly 1,903,063 procedures were performed in a year, which shows 24.8% growth in a year, worldwide. The highest growth was shown in the surgery of breast implant removal surgery, which was 206,826 in 2020 and 253,594 in 2022, i.e., 49.6% growth in a year, worldwide. The increasing rate of surgical procedures increasing each year will increase the demand for smoke evacuation devices.

Thus, the above-mentioned factors and others are contributing to the growth of the smoke evacuation device market during the forecast period from 2024-2030.

However, risks related to smoke evacuation devices, new device inventions, and others may restrict the smoke evacuation device market growth.

The smoke evacuation device market was negatively impacted during the period of COVID-19 pandemic. The outbreak of the pandemic led to the cancellation of outpatient visits, the suspension of non-emergency hospital visits, and various surgical procedures. Additionally, the restrictions in the supply chain, raw materials, and other resources halted the manufacturing of devices, leading to a shortage of devices in the market. However, the vaccine development of COVID-19 initiated the process of economic recovery. Also, the easing of lockdown restrictions and the return of normalcy in the economic landscape initiated the process of resumption of regular healthcare services such as outpatient visits and surgeries for the treatment of chronic ailments, thereby bringing the demand for products on track in the smoke evacuation device market.

Smoke Evacuation Device Market Segment Analysis:

Smoke Evacuation Device Market by Product (Smoke Evacuating System, Smoke Evacuating Accessories [Smoke Evacuating Pencils, Smoke Evacuating Filters, and Others], Application (Laparoscopic Surgeries, Orthopedic Surgeries, Medical Aesthetic Surgeries, and Others), End-User (Hospitals & Clinics, Ambulatory Surgical Centers, and Others), and Geography (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Rest of the World)

In the product segment of the smoke evacuation device market, the smoke-evacuating pencils in the smoke evacuation accessories category are estimated to hold the largest share in 2022. This can be ascribed to the advantages provided by pencils over other surgical techniques.

The smoke evacuating pencils provide more comfort in the surgeon’s hand, minimal invasion, and shorter operating time.

Further, the increasing product launches and regulatory approvals of smoke-evacuating pencils will aid in increasing their demand in the market. For instance, in October 2022, Shining World Health Care Co., Ltd received FDA approval for a smoke evacuation pencil. It is designed for general electrosurgical applications, including cutting, coagulation, and for removing smoke generated by electro surgery when used in conjunction with an effective smoke evacuation system.

Thus, smoke evacuation pencils are likely to be the best option in the management of smoke evacuation from the surgical site.

Henceforth, the above-mentioned factors will drive the demand for smoke evacuating pencils, thereby propelling e the growth of the overall smoke evacuation device market during the forecast period 2024-2030.

North America is expected to dominate the overall Smoke Evacuation Device Market:

Among all the regions, North America is estimated to account for the largest share of the smoke evacuation device market in the year 2023. Owing to the factors such as the rising number of minimally invasive surgical procedures, the growing awareness about the production of harmful gases during electro surgery, the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, and others driving the North America smoke evacuation device market and is expected to witness positive growth during the forecast period.

For instance, as per the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS) 2022, out of 1,903,063 procedure of liposuction 381,000 were performed in the US, and out of 253,594 procedures of breast implants, 7,1284 were performed in the US in the year 2023. This indicates that the US covers about 20% of liposuction surgery which is the highest share all over the world. Thus, the increasing cases of surgical procedures in the US will increase the demand for smoke evacuation devices as these devices are used as a necessity for the removal of smoke in the operating room.

Furthermore, the surging strategic activities such as product launches and approvals, mergers, acquisitions, partnerships, and others also help in boosting regional product demand. For instance, in September 2020, Olympus Corporation signed an agreement to distribute Alesi surgical 510(k) cleared ultra-vision surgical smoke control system in the US. Ultra vision has been approved for use in laparoscopic surgery. Thus, such strategic steps help to increase the demand for smoke evacuation devices, thereby driving the North America smoke evacuation device market forward during the forecast period.
