Market growth can be attributed to the rising geriatric population and the subsequent increase in the prevalence of HVD, regulatory approvals for new and advanced prosthetic heart valve, increasing government funding for heart valve research, rising awareness about HVD, and favorable reimbursement scenario for prosthetic heart valve.
The prosthetic heart valve market is projected to reach USD 8.86 Billion by 2022 from USD 4.84 Billion in 2017, at a CAGR of 12.9%. The key factors propelling the growth of this market include the rising geriatric population and the subsequent increase in the prevalence of HVD, regulatory approvals for new and advanced prosthetic heart valve, increasing government funding for heart valve research, rising awareness about HVD, and favorable reimbursement scenario for prosthetic heart valve.
In this report, the prosthetic heart valve market has been segmented based on the type of valve and region. On the basis of the type of valve, the market is segmented into transcatheter heart valves, tissue heart valve, and mechanical heart valve. The transcatheter heart valve segment is expected to command the largest share of the global market in 2017 and is expected to register the highest CAGR of 18.0% during the forecast period. The large share and high growth rate of this segment can be attributed to the rising prevalence of aortic stenosis, increasing pool of patients owing to approvals for extended valve indications, and technological advancements. The preference for transcatheter heart valve is expected to witness high growth in the future as they are implanted through a minimally invasive procedure while the other valve types require open-heart surgery.
North America to Command the Largest Market Share in 2017
Based on region, the prosthetic heart valves market is divided into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Rest of the World.
