The global midline catheter market size was estimated at USD 3.01 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.06% from 2025 to 2030. This growth is attributed to the increasing need for safe, cost-effective, and medium-term intravenous access, particularly in patients requiring long-term antibiotic therapy, fluid administration, or chemotherapy.
The growing incidence of chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular disorders, coupled with an aging global population, is boosting demand for midline catheters in both hospital and home care settings. According to CDC data published in October 2024, heart disease remains the leading cause of death for men, women, and individuals across most racial and ethnic groups. On average, one person dies from cardiovascular disease every 33 seconds. In 2022, heart disease reported the lives of 702,880 people, accounting for approximately 1 in every 5 deaths.
The increase in hospital admissions and surgical procedures is a significant driver of growth in the midline catheter industry, primarily due to the rising demand for efficient, safe, cost-effective intravenous access. With more patients being admitted for acute and chronic conditions, there is a heightened need for vascular access devices that can support medium-term therapies such as antibiotics, fluids, and pain management.
Midline catheters, which are typically inserted in a peripheral vein and extend up to the axillary vein but do not reach central veins, provide a reliable solution for treatments lasting from 1 to 4 weeks. Compared to short peripheral IVs requiring frequent replacement, midline catheters reduce the need for repeated needle sticks, enhancing patient comfort and lowering the risk of complications such as phlebitis and infiltration. In addition, compared to central venous catheters, midline catheters have a lower risk of serious infections like central line-associated bloodstream infections, making them a safer and more cost-effective, especially in post-operative and high-turnover hospital environments. As healthcare systems worldwide strive to improve outcomes while reducing costs and procedural complexity, the demand for midline catheters grows with the increasing volume of hospital-based care and surgical interventions.
