Our researchers analyzed the data with 2023 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
Rising prevalence of cancer is the key driver of the market. In the United States, the number of cancer survivors has been on the rise, with an estimated 17 million individuals living with cancer in 2020, according to the National Cancer Institute. This figure is projected to reach 22.2 million by 2030. Some of the most common types of cancer include breast cancer, lung and bronchus cancer, prostate cancer, colon and rectum cancer, melanoma of the skin, bladder cancer, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, kidney and renal pelvis cancer, endometrial cancer, pancreatic cancer, thyroid cancer, and liver cancer. In 2022, approximately 1.9 million new cancer cases were diagnosed. Given that cancer increases offers the best chance for a cure when the cancer is still localized, the rising cancer prevalence is expected to result in a corresponding increase in surgical procedures.
Moreover, the elderly population and those suffering from chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease and osteoarthritis, are also significant consumers of anesthesia drugs. The pharmaceutical manufacturing segments are working diligently to develop anesthesia drugs tailored to the specific needs of these patient groups, as part of the precision medicine trend. In 2021, the market in the US was valued at around USD 10 billion and is projected to grow at a steady pace in the coming years.
Increasing adoption of alternatives to general anesthesia is the upcoming trend in the market. The market is experiencing a shift towards alternative methods of anesthesia, driven by the increasing preference of insurance companies, anesthetic physicians, and certified anesthetic nurses for cost-effective and less invasive procedures. This trend is particularly noticeable in the ambulatory anesthesia sector, where third-party payers are increasingly favoring procedures that do not require hospitalization. For instance, the approval of the Tubes Under Local Anesthesia (TULA) System for the delivery of tympanostomy tubes by the US Food and Drug Administration in November 2022 is a significant development in this regard. This system offers patients an alternative to general anesthesia for the treatment of recurrent ear infections.
Similarly, the growing popularity of nonsurgical alternatives to open-heart increase is expected to reduce the demand for general anesthesia drugs. As more healthcare providers adopt conscious sedation and regional anesthesia, the need for anesthesia drugs used in these methods is likely to increase. Despite these trends, financial barriers remain a significant challenge for the adoption of alternative anesthesia methods. However, as the benefits of these methods become more widely recognized, it is expected that the market for anesthesia drugs will continue to evolve, with a greater focus on cost-effective and less invasive options.
General anesthetic risks in pediatric patients and pregnant women is a key challenge affecting the market growth. Anesthetic drugs play a crucial role in tracheal intubation methods during various medical procedures. These drug formulations are administered using different delivery methods to ensure patient comfort and safety. One of the latest additions to the anesthetic drug market is Remimazolam, which selectively binds to the GABAA receptor at the benzodiazepine binding site. This mechanism of action provides faster onset and offset times compared to traditional anesthetics. Despite the advancements in anesthetic drugs, their use in pediatric patients requires careful consideration. Infants and young children have distinct physiological differences that impact the way they respond to anesthetic agents.
Furthermore, these differences include variations in body composition, protein binding, body temperature, cardiac output distribution, and functional maturity of the liver and kidneys. Recent studies on animals have shown that prolonged exposure to general anesthetics and sedative medicines can lead to nerve cell death in the brain. However, research on human subjects suggests that brief exposure to these drugs during tracheal intubation in newborns and toddlers is unlikely to cause harm to their behavior or learning abilities. Healthcare access and affordability continue to be significant challenges in the delivery of anesthesia services. These reports can help stakeholders make informed decisions and stay competitive in the industry.
