Otorhinolaryngology Devices Market Research Report: Global Industry Size, Share, Development, Growth and Demand Forecast to 2030

Otorhinolaryngology Devices Overview

Otorhinolaryngology is the medical discipline involving the assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and management of diseases, abnormalities, and other health problems affecting the ears, nose, and throat (ENT), as well as the head and neck, mouth, sinus, and voice box (larynx). It is considered as one of the oldest medical practices in the U.S. Aside from medical management, the specialists are also trained to perform surgeries for the aforementioned body parts, along with plastic and reconstructive surgeries.

The otorhinolaryngology devices market on the basis of type is categorized into the diagnostics device, surgical device, hearing device, and others. Among these, the hearing devices are expected to account for the significant share in the market during the forecast period (2020–2030). This can be attributed to the high prevalence of hearing loss, hearing problems in geriatric population, rising number of product approvals, and technological advancements.

Hospital, ambulatory surgical center, and others are the end users of the otorhinolaryngology devices market. Among all, the ambulatory surgical center category is expected to grow fastest during the forecast period. This can be mainly due to the minimally invasive surgical procedures performed globally and the introduction of the technologically advanced products.

North America is expected to dominate the otorhinolaryngology devices market during the forecast period owing to the factors such as growing preference for minimally invasive ENT surgeries, growing geriatric population, rising incidence of hearing loss and disorders, increasing focus of market players in the region, and less-stringent regulatory guidelines.

Otorhinolaryngology Devices Market Dynamics

The otorhinolaryngology devices market is being driven by increasing prevalence of ENT-related disorders and growing preference for minimally invasive procedures. For instance, according to National Health Interview Survey in the U.S., around 16% of the U.S. adults had hearing loss during 2014–2016. Hence, increasing prevalence of ENT diseases is expected to boost the market in the coming years. However, the high cost and lack of proper reimbursement policy for hearing aids are restraining the growth in the market.
