Pediatric Catheters Market - By Product Type (Cardiovascular, Urology, Intravenous, Neurovascular, Specialty), Material (PVC, Silicone, Polyurethane, Latex), End-use (Hospital, Specialty Clinics, Ambulatory Surgical Centers) – Global Forecast, 2024 – 2032

Pediatric Catheters Market Size

Pediatric Catheters Market size was valued at around USD 6.7 billion in 2023 and is estimated to expand at 7.1% CAGR from 2024 to 2032. Factors such as increasing prevalence of pediatric urological conditions, technological advancements in catheters, increasing pediatric population and growing demand for minimally invasive surgical procedures are propelling the market growth.
 

Pediatric Catheters Market

The growing prevalence of urological conditions in pediatric population has led to an increased demand for pediatric catheters globally. Pediatric urological disorders are highly prevalent worldwide, with undescended testicles, hydrocele, hypospadias, and urinary tract infections (UTIs) among the most common conditions. Further, through various studies it was noted that girls and younger patients under the age of two may have the highest prevalence of UTIs.
 

This high prevalence of UTIs in girls is due to bacteria Escherichia coli, causing the disease to approximately 80% of pediatric population. Thus, owing to the widespread prevalence of such disorders among children globally, there is an increasing need for pediatric urological care, thereby, boosting the product demand.
 

Pediatric catheters are medical devices specifically designed and sized for use in children, typically from infancy to adolescence. These catheters are used to assist in various medical procedures involving the urinary, vascular or other procedures. They aim to minimize discomfort and the risk of complications associated with catheterization in pediatric patients.
 

Pediatric Catheters Market Trends

The consistent technological advancements in pediatric catheters by enabling the innovative technologies in the devices has led to the increased demand for pediatric catheters. Different coating technologies, incorporated durability and patient specific 3D printed products are some of the pointers supporting the segmental growth.
 

  • Ongoing research and development efforts have resulted in innovative pediatric catheter designs with advanced coating that reduce friction during the introduction and removal of catheters, improving patient comfort and reducing the chance of injuring delicate tissues. For instance, the hydrogel-coated catheters significantly improved pediatric catheterization by reducing friction during insertion, thereby minimizing the risk of urethral damage.
     
  • The advancement is achieved through 3D network of hydrogels composed of crosslinked, insoluble, and swellable polymers, that offers catheters their special ice-like properties and increase their mechanical strength.
     
  • Further, a significant development that makes safe and efficient imaging during catheterization procedures possible in both pre-clinical research and clinical practice is the use of MRI-compatible catheters. Real-time magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided cardiac catheterization provide radiation-free, three-dimensional soft tissue visualization along with additional hemodynamic data, especially when considering congenital heart disease.
     
  • These catheters are constructed using non-ferromagnetic materials and provides the transparency to radiofrequency signals used in MRI. Hence, such technological advancement in the catheters has enabled much clearer imaging without the need for catheter removal in pediatric patients.
     

Pediatric Catheters Market Analysis

Pediatric Catheters Market, By Product Type, 2021 – 2032 (USD Billion)

Based on product type, the market is categorized into cardiovascular catheters, urology catheters, intravenous catheters, neurovascular catheters, and specialty catheters. The cardiovascular catheter segment accounted for majority share and was valued at over USD 2.8 billion revenue in 2023.
 

  • Heart failure, arrhythmias, and coronary artery diseases are among the world's most common causes of morbidity and mortality related to heart. For instance, according to Pan American Health Organization, 2 million children died from CVD in the Americas region in 2019. The widespread prevalence of these conditions necessitates the cardiovascular catheters for both diagnostic and interventional treatments.
     
  • Additionally, the biodegradable technology has been utilized to address the congenital cardiac disease. These include coils and vascular occlusion devices, stents with different lengths, diameters, and physical characteristics, and devices to seal patient’s ductus arteriosus, ventricular septal defects, and atrial septal defects.
     
  • For congenital heart disease, particularly in newborn babies and children, biodegradable stents have been developed. These stents degrade over time, resulting in lowering the chances of complications and reducing the need for additional procedures.
     
Pediatric Catheters Market, By Material (2023)

Based on material, the pediatric catheters market is segmented into polyvinyl chloride, silicone, polyurethane, latex, and other materials. The silicone segment held leading revenue share in 2023 and is anticipated to reach USD 7.1 billion by 2032.
 

  • Silicone is known for its biocompatibility, as it is well-tolerated by the body. They are often chosen for their flexibility and softness, which can enhance patient comfort, particularly in pediatric cases where gentleness is essential.
     
  • Silicone catheters typically have a low-friction surface, making them suitable for procedures where ease of insertion and removal is important. Additionally, Silicone is a chemically inert material, so it is resistant to many chemicals, thus, reducing the risk of adverse reactions.
     

Based on end-use segmentation, the pediatric catheters market is categorized into hospitals, specialty clinics, ambulatory surgical centers, and other end-users. The hospitals segment accounted for majority revenue share and was valued at around USD 3.7 billion revenue in 2023.
 

  • Hospitals need a wide variety of pediatric catheters to treat a range of medical disorders as they are utilized across numerous fields, including cardiology, urology, etc.
     
  • Additionally, hospitals consist of PICU departments which provides care for critically ill pediatric patients who may require catheterization for monitoring and treatment. Catheters are essential in intensive care settings for various therapeutic interventions, making them primary requirements for different treatment procedures. Thus, owing to high patient population and increasing procedural volumes, the product demand is predicted to fuel over the analysis period.
     
North America Pediatric Catheters Market, 2020 – 2032 (USD Billion)

North America pediatric catheters market accounted for USD 2.2 billion revenue in 2023 and is predicted to witness substantial market growth over the analysis timeline.
 

  • Increasing number of children with congenital heart defects is among a key factor supporting the market growth. Advances in prenatal screening and diagnosis have led to higher detection rates of CHDs, necessitating minimally invasive procedures using catheters.
     
  • For example, according to data reported by American Academy of Pediatrics, around 40,000 infants in the U.S. are born each year with CHDs. Thus, such high prevalence rate will result in increased product demand thereby, fueling the regional growth.
     
  • Public health initiatives and media campaigns have spurred greater awareness of preventive care and early intervention for various childhood diseases, leading to higher demand for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures involving catheters.
     
  • Further, increasing coverage for minimally invasive procedures by insurance companies incentivizes healthcare providers to utilize catheters, positively impacting market expansion.
