(PharmaNewsWire.Com, December 10, 2019 ) The Fractional Flow Reserve Market growth is largely driven by the increasing geriatric population and the subsequent growth in the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases, cost-benefits of FFR, and the presence of a favorable reimbursement scenario. Emerging economies are expected to present market players with a wide range of opportunities.
Market Segmentation:
The invasive monitoring segment accounted for the largest share of the market in 2018
On the basis of technology, the market is segmented into invasive and non-invasive monitoring technologies. In 2018, the invasive monitoring segment accounted for the largest share of the Fractional Flow Reserve Market. The large share of this segment can be attributed to the strong recommendation for FFR usage in coronary angiography.
The pressure guidewires segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period
On the basis of product, the invasive monitoring market is segmented into pressure guidewires and FFR monitoring systems. The pressure guidewires segment accounted for the largest share of the market in 2018. This can be attributed to the growth in the number of PCI procedures (as a result of the rising prevalence of CVD), strong recommendation for the use of guided revascularization by measuring FFR in specific clinical scenarios, and the single-use nature of pressure guidewires, which ensures repeat purchases.
