Analysts’ Viewpoint
Single-use flexible endoscopes are preferred in several surgical and non-surgical procedures owing to the growth in trend of using single-use devices. Disposability features of single-use medical devices, such as suction catheters, surgical masks, and syringes, have decreased infection risks and improved patient safety. Disposable endoscopes have lowered the risk of post-procedure infection brought on by cross-contamination, akin to other disposable medical devices.
Interest in these devices is rising due to the pressing need for increased patient safety. Recent research by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) twice led to updated safety communications and new guidance for reprocessing flexible endoscopes in 2020. In June 2021, the FDA indicated that medical professionals prefer using single-use bronchoscopes when there is a higher risk of infection transmission and while treating COVID-19 patients.
Endoscope is a medical device with a light on it. It is used to carry out examination inside of an organ and body cavity. During a sigmoidoscopy or bronchoscopy, the device is transplanted through a tiny opening, such as the mouth or rectum. Single-use endoscopes have been recently introduced in response to increased concerns about the spread of infections by reusable endoscopes.
Demand for single-use endoscopes providing high resolution and high-definition images is expected to increase in the treatment of mucosa and to carry out diagnosis and examination of the gastrointestinal tract, gastrointestinal bleeding, and obtain tissue samples of luminal organs. Development of endoscopy techniques, such as duodenoscopes, bronchoscopes, and echoendoscopes, by major companies is likely to support market expansion during the forecast period.

Rise in prevalence of gastrointestinal diseases and increase in initiatives, such as approvals for usage of endoscopes, are the major factors propelling the market progress. For example, a GLOBOCAN report stated that the incidence of stomach cancer was 1,089,103 in 2020. This figure is expected to rise to 1,810,870 by 2040. Rise in prevalence of stomach cancer is expected to drive sales due to early cancer diagnosis.
Product launches and collaborations are key strategies adopted by companies. The Asian Institute of Gastroenterology (AIG) in India received an automation diagnostic support system in October 2020 as a result of a collaboration between Olympus Corporation and Cybernet Systems Co. Ltd. Developments in various end-user facilities and new product releases and partnerships are the key market trends. Implementation of single-use gastroendoscopes is likely to boost the business during the forecast period.
Rise in preference for minimally invasive surgeries, such as proctoscopy, gastroscopy, and cystoscopy, owing to smaller incisions, less pain, faster recovery, and low or no risk of complications, is driving the single-use flexible endoscope market size. Minimally invasive surgeries are known to be less expensive and provide a higher quality of life. Surge in number of cancer cases and increase in usage of endoscopy for biopsies and endoscopic ultrasound to treat such chronic diseases are the key business catalysts.
Increase in number of obese patients, rise in public awareness about the procedure, and government support are augmenting the market share. For example, in April 2022, the U.S. FDA revised its "Safety Communication" and reaffirmed its suggestion that healthcare facilities and endoscopy facilities swap to using only totally or semi-disposable duodenoscopes.

In terms of type, the bronchoscopes segment is expected to grow at a rapid pace during the forecast period. Bronchoscopes are used to treat airway cancer with radioactive materials. These are also used to collect tissue samples when other tests, such as a CT scan or an X-ray, reveal a problem with the lung or lymph nodes in the chest.
Lung diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), sinusitis, and otitis media, are diagnosed by collecting tissues or mucus samples for examination. The severity of the disease is also assessed using bronchoscopes.
The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that COPD accounts for 3.3 million deaths each year. Furthermore, the American Cancer Society reported 235,070 cases of lung cancer in the U.S. in 2018. This is driving the need for bronchoscopies for biopsies to identify and treat lung cancers. In turn, this is anticipated to propel the bronchoscopes segment during the forecast period.
Based on end-user, the hospitals segment dominated the global business in 2021, as hospitals have a significantly higher rate of product adoption and usage than other healthcare facilities. The segment is driven by favorable reimbursement policies and improvement in healthcare infrastructure in developed and emerging economies.
Hospitals are the primary medical care providers in many nations. They also perform the majority of procedures and surgeries, which contribute to the segment's growth. High product demand in hospitals is partly due to the rise in awareness about the risk of contamination and hospital-acquired infections associated with reusable devices.
North America accounted for approximately 40.0% share of the industry in 2021. This can be ascribed to well-established healthcare infrastructure and rapid adoption of new products in the region. Additionally, aging population, increase in demand for minimally invasive surgeries, and rise in prevalence of infectious diseases are driving the demand for single-use flexible endoscopes in the region. A multisite study published in 2018 in the American Journal of Infection Control showed that samples from 71% of endoscopes had microbial growth. Insufficient recycling and drying resulted in exposure and fluid residue.
The market in Asia Pacific is expected to expand rapidly in the next few years. Aging population and rising demand for innovative healthcare services are creating significant opportunities for manufacturers of single-use endoscopes. Additionally, multinational corporations are focusing on countries in Asia to build their facilities due to access to low-cost labor and raw materials.
The single-use flexible endoscope market is highly competitive and dominated by a small group of companies. Key players are forming strategic alliances to drive sales and share. Other strategies used by participants to increase their reach include product line expansion, acquisitions, and mergers.
Boston Scientific Corporation, Ambu A/S, Olympus America, Fujifilm Holdings Corporation, Laborie, NeoScope Inc., Coloplast Corp., Shenzhen Tianlang Medical, Intersurgical, and Teleflex Incorporated are the key players in the global industry.
