United States Specimen and Foreign-Body Removal Devices Market Report 2017: Specimen Retrieval Segment Represented Approximately 78.4% Market Share - Research and Markets

The U.S. market for specimen and foreign-body removal devices is defined in this report as polyp retrieval traps, specimen retrieval nets, foreign-body removal nets, foreign-body removal graspers, and foreign-body removal snares. The largest segment in this market was the specimen retrieval segment. This segment represented approximately 78.4% of the total market in 2016.

The value of the total U.S. market for specimen and foreign body removal devices increased in 2016. Growth is expected to persist throughout the forecasted period and will be driven by increases in unit sales countered by a decrease in the ASP. The vast majority of units in this market are sold to hospitals, with only relatively few units used in the outpatient centers.

The two segments have different growth profiles with the specimen retrieval segment experiencing a low growth, while the foreign-body removal segment is on the decline. The major contributor to the unit growth in this market is the polyp retrieval trap segment due to high volume coupled with the low-single digit growth rate.

The relatively large size of this segment is mainly due to these devices being involved in most of the high-volume polyp removal procedures with the snare technique, where a separate device to remove the polyp is required. Most of the devices discussed in this chapter are single-use and therefore correspond one-to-one with the underlying procedure. Only a small number of graspers and snare units were reusable.
