Market Growth Factors

Surgeons globally perform more surgical procedures, the geriatric population rises, and chronic diseases like cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), arthritis, cancer, and obesity become more popular for driving the growth of the global surgical scissors market. In 2017, all adults at 60 years and older have a minimum of 1 chronic disease and 80% have 2 or more chronic diseases. This situation propels demand in surgery and surgical instruments like surgical scissors.

Road deaths occur for a larger number of people in the world. Road traffic accidents cause more people to go to hospitals. This situation has made surgical scissors more necessary. Minimally intrusive surgical (MIS) procedures grow in popularity and raise demand, needing delicate, versatile scissors for performance of complex tasks through small incisions inside a body cavity. The MIS market, valued at US$ 52.9 Billion in 2023, is anticipated for expansion to US$ 91.0 Billion by 2032, subsequently improving the growth outlook for the surgical scissors market.

Technology advances for surgical instruments contribute to higher quality surgical processes including the da Vinci System for robotic-assisted surgery. The da Vinci System operates robotic scissors for cutting and manipulating tissue. High-definition cameras and imaging technologies provide more visualization, precision in positioning and usage of surgical scissors, positively impacting market forecast.
