Exploring How Ventilator Industry is Seeking Global Attention!

Written by Wasi  »  Updated on: January 24th, 2025

Ventilators are essentially required when a patient is suffering from injury or illness like COVID-19, as they support individuals with impaired lung function during the recovery process. The mounting incidence of chronic & acute respiratory disorders, especially among the rapidly rising elderly population, coupled with the subsequent increase in ICU admissions to treat such illnesses, further propelling the exponential demand for ventilators globally. Additionally, with the growing incidence of COPD, there are rapidly increasing hospital admissions for its treatment, i.e., instigating the demand for critical care equipment like ICU beds, ventilators, & patient monitoring systems, among others, and, in turn, driving the overall market expansion.

Everything You Need to Know About Ventilator

A ventilator is a machine that provides mechanical or artificial ventilation to patients who can't breathe adequately due to chronic or acute respiratory conditions. Invasive and non-invasive are two types of ventilators used in different healthcare facilities like hospitals (ICUs & emergency rooms), clinics, ambulatory care centers, and households. The demand for ventilators is constantly rising, especially after the advent of Covid-19. Since then, manufacturers have been actively working on increasing their production & distribution capacities to bridge the global demand-supply gaps.

Four Major Types of Ventilators

The ventilators are classified in:

  • Face Mask Ventilators: Face mask ventilators are noninvasive, while mechanical and tracheostomy ventilators are invasive and work via tubes that a doctor inserts through a hole in the neck that leads to the trachea, or windpipe
  • Mechanical Ventilators: Mechanical ventilators are machines that take over the breathing process entirely. Doctors use these when a person cannot breathe on their own.
  • Manual Resuscitator Bags: Manual resuscitator bags are pieces of equipment that allow people to control the airflow of their ventilator with their hands.
  • Tracheostomy Ventilators: A tracheostomy is a procedure where a doctor creates an opening in the windpipe and inserts a tube, which allows air to flow in and out. This enables a person to breathe without using their nose or mouth. Patients who have undergone a tracheostomy will require a ventilator.

Advantages of Ventilators

  • Ventilators facilitate oxygen to the lungs
  • Provides pressure to keep the lungs air sacs from collapsing
  • Used for a short time by a patient to recover from a respiratory illness
  • Ventilators can also be used to treat ARDS, respiratory illness, treat pneumonia, etc.

Potential Complications of Using a Ventilator

With widespread procedures, ventilation comprises some risks, such as:

  • Infections, which can include sinus infections
  • Airway obstruction
  • Long-term vocal cord damage as a result of intubation
  • Blood clots or bedsores as a result of lying in one position for long periods
  • Muscle weakness, if a person stays on a ventilator for a long time
  • Lung damage, which can result from high air pressure or high oxygen levels

Global Ventilator Market Analytical Overview (2023-28)

The report covers “Global Ventilator Market Research Report: By Type (Adult/Pediatric Ventilation, Infant/Neonatal Ventilation), By Interface (Invasive Ventilation, Non-Invasive Ventilation), By Mode (Combined-Mode Ventilation, Volume-Mode Ventilation, Pressure Mode Ventilation), By Mobility (Portable, Intensive Care Unit) By End-User (Hospitals and Clinics, Homecare, Ambulatory Care Centers, Emergency Medical Services), By Country (US, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, UK, Germany, Italy, Spain, China, India, Japan, South Korea, Australia, UAE, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Nigeria) Forecast (2023-2028)”, According to the report, the Global Ventilator Market is projected to grow at around 13% CAGR during the forecast period, i.e., 2023-28.

Significant Drives and Challenges Influencing Global Ventilator Industry

Patients using ventilators face various challenges such as VAP (Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia), sepsis, ARDS (Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome), pulmonary embolism, barotrauma, Bronchopleural Fistula (BPF), & pulmonary edema, among others. These conditions can result in longer duration of procedures, extended ICU stays, rise in healthcare costs, and increased risk of disability & death. This is expected to hinder the growth of the industry. Despite these restrictions, the industry is witnessing a huge upsurge owing to the mounting prevalence of both chronic and acute respiratory illnesses like COPD, bronchial asthma, acute lung injury, and hypoxemia, among others. This rising health disease is due to the rising number of tobacco consumers globally. Therefore, considering the prominent factor estimated to augment the growth of the global industry.
