Elastomeric Infusion Pumps Market - Growth, Trends, COVID-19 Impact, and Forecasts (2022 - 2027)

Elastomeric infusion system market is primarily driven by an increase in adoption, growing demand for small disposable infusion pumps, and its wide range of application in various fluid drug delivery systems. In addition, increase in number of surgeries as a result of an increased rate of hospitalization that ultimately increases the demand for elastomeric pumps for postoperative pain management conditions. Elastomeric infusion pump system offers several advantages over electronic pumps including portability, feasible demonstration, low weight, size, ease of use, and less interference with sleep. The difficulties in the detection of delivery rate accuracy and abnormal drug delivery are restraining factors for the growth of the market.

However, market players are actively focusing on innovation working towards the increasing adoption of elastomeric infusion devices by advancing technologies. For instance, in April 2017, B. Braun Medical Inc. launched "esaypump home infusion therapy app", offers educational content to clinicians and patients on safe usage of B. Braun Medical's easypump elastomeric infusion pump. Moreover, increasing R&D costs and frequent product recalls, mostly due to design flaws, are expected to hamper the elastomeric infusion system market.

Key Market Trends
