Blood and Fluid Warmer Market Report 2024

The blood and fluid warmer market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.04 billion in 2023 to $1.13 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.4%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to several factors include stringent regulatory standards and guidelines aimed at enhancing patient care, economic advantages associated with reducing complications related to hypothermia, increasing awareness of the risks linked to hypothermia, the global aging population, and a trend towards minimally invasive surgeries.

The blood and fluid warmer market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.58 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.7%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to several factors include the expansion of healthcare facilities, including hospitals and specialty clinics, rising numbers of trauma cases and emergency surgeries, supportive regulatory frameworks encouraging the adoption of blood and fluid warmers, expansion of emergency medical services and ambulance fleets, and increased focus on enhancing patient outcomes. Key trends expected in the forecast period include the integration of advanced features such as electronic controls, advancements in heating technologies and materials, device miniaturization, personalized medicine approaches, incorporation of telemedicine capabilities, and implementation of remote monitoring functionalities.

The increasing number of surgical procedures is expected to drive growth in the blood and fluid warmer market moving forward. Surgical procedures involve medical interventions performed by trained healthcare professionals to address diseases, injuries, or deformities using incisions or minimally invasive techniques. This rise is driven by advancements in surgical techniques, improved access to healthcare services, an aging population requiring more medical interventions, and the expansion of specialized surgical procedures for complex conditions. Blood and fluid warmers play a critical role in surgical settings by ensuring patient safety and optimizing outcomes. They prevent hypothermia and maintain optimal fluid temperatures, thereby enhancing surgical efficiency and aiding in recovery. For example, according to the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery in September 2022, there was an overall 11.2% increase in procedures performed by plastic surgeons in 2022, with over 14.9 million surgical and 18.8 million non-surgical procedures globally. This trend underscores how the growing number of surgical procedures is driving demand and growth in the blood and fluid warmer market.

Leading companies in the blood and fluid warmer market are focused on developing advanced products, including systems based on patented warming technology, aimed at improving efficiency and safety in medical environments and meeting the crucial requirement for maintaining optimal fluid temperatures. Patented warming technology systems incorporate innovative heating methods protected by patents, catering to diverse applications such as medical devices, food preservation, and outdoor equipment. For example, MEQU, a Denmark-based medical technology manufacturer, introduced the M Warmer System in April 2021. This portable device is designed for warming blood and IV fluids and is widely adopted in pre-hospital and military settings. The °M Warmer can rapidly heat infusion fluids from cold to body temperature in less than 10 seconds. Additionally, MEQU offers the AC-powered °M Station, a hospital-based power solution for the °M Warmer System, suitable for use in emergency rooms, operating theaters, intensive care units, and imaging facilities such as X-ray and CT scans.

A blood and fluid warmer is a medical device designed to heat blood, intravenous fluids, or other solutions before they are administered to a patient. Its primary function is to prevent hypothermia and maintain normal body temperature (normothermia) during medical procedures, surgeries, or emergencies that involve the infusion of large volumes of cold fluids or blood products.

The main types of blood and fluid warmers include patient warming accessories, intravenous warming systems, and surface warming systems. Patient warming accessories encompass additional devices used in healthcare settings to either maintain or raise a patient's body temperature during procedures or recovery, such as blankets, mattresses, or forced-air systems. These warmers find applications across various healthcare settings including homecare, acute care, newborn care, preoperative care, and others. They are utilized by diverse end-users such as clinics, hospitals, specialty centers, and similar facilities.
