Continuous bladder irrigation (CBI) devices are medical systems designed to continuously flush the bladder with a sterile solution, typically saline, to prevent clot formation and maintain catheter functionality. They are mainly used following urological surgeries to keep the bladder free from blood and debris. This ongoing irrigation helps lower the risk of infection, aids healing, and ensures proper urinary drainage.
The primary types of continuous bladder irrigation devices include Foley 3-way catheters, accessories, and irrigation bags. Foley 3-way catheters feature separate channels for drainage, balloon inflation, and irrigation, making them essential for preventing clots and managing the bladder after surgery. These devices are used in various settings, such as post-surgical irrigation, bladder cancer treatment, hemorrhagic cystitis, urinary tract infections, trauma and urinary retention, as well as home-based irrigation. Key end users include hospitals, long-term care facilities, and others.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The fast surge in U.S. tariffs and the trade tensions that followed in spring 2025 are heavily affecting the medical equipment sector, particularly for imported imaging machine components, surgical-grade stainless steel, and plastic disposables. Hospitals and clinics resist price hikes, pressuring manufacturers' margins. Regulatory hurdles compound the problem, as tariff-related supplier changes often require re-certification of devices, delaying time-to-market. Companies are mitigating risks by dual-sourcing critical parts, expanding domestic production of commoditized items, and accelerating R&D in cost-efficient materials.
The continuous bladder irrigation devices market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides continuous bladder irrigation devices market statistics, including the continuous bladder irrigation devices industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with the continuous bladder irrigation devices market share, detailed continuous bladder irrigation devices market segments, market trends, opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the continuous bladder irrigation devices industry. This continuous bladder irrigation devices market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The continuous bladder irrigation devices market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.34 billion in 2024 to $1.42 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.0%. The growth during the historic period can be attributed to the rising prevalence of urological disorders, an increasing geriatric patient population, growing incidence of prostate cancer, heightened demand for postoperative care, and greater adoption of these devices in hospitals.
The continuous bladder irrigation devices market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.77 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.7%. The growth expected in the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing number of urinary retention treatments, heightened awareness of urological health, rising cases of hematuria, greater focus on patient comfort, and the growing use of minimally invasive procedures. Key trends during this period include advancements in automated irrigation systems, integration of real-time monitoring sensors, technologies improving infection control, developments in catheter material coatings, and progress in closed-system irrigation technologies.
The rising prevalence of urological disorders is anticipated to drive the growth of the continuous bladder irrigation devices market in the future. Urological disorders are medical conditions affecting the urinary system or male reproductive organs. The increase in these disorders is mainly attributed to an aging population, as age-related changes elevate the risk of urinary and prostate issues. Continuous bladder irrigation (CBI) devices assist in managing urological conditions by continuously flushing the bladder to eliminate clots, debris, or infections. This process helps prevent catheter blockages and promotes healing, particularly after surgical procedures. For example, in March 2023, data from the Government of Canada indicated that approximately 12,500 new bladder cancer cases were reported in 2022, along with about 2,600 related deaths, highlighting the disease's significant impact that year. Consequently, the growing prevalence of urological disorders is propelling the expansion of the continuous bladder irrigation devices market.
The increasing volume of surgical procedures is expected to boost the continuous bladder irrigation devices market going forward. Surgical procedure volume refers to the total number of surgeries performed in healthcare facilities over a specific time period. This volume is rising due to the growing elderly population, as older individuals are more susceptible to chronic diseases that often necessitate surgical intervention. Continuous bladder irrigation (CBI) devices are utilized during or after surgeries to continuously flush the bladder, removing blood, clots, and debris. This helps prevent catheter blockage, maintains clear urine flow, and supports healing. For instance, in April 2025, the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare reported that in 2023-24, public hospital elective surgery waitlists included 778,500 admissions, marking a 5.8% increase from 735,500 admissions in 2022-23. Therefore, the rise in surgical procedure volume is driving growth in the continuous bladder irrigation devices market.
Key players in the continuous bladder irrigation (CBI) devices market are focusing on developing innovative products to enhance postoperative urological care. Postoperative care products are medical devices and supplies designed to aid healing, prevent infections, and manage pain after surgery to ensure proper recovery. For example, in January 2025, UNOQUIP GmbH, a medical device company based in Switzerland, announced the launch of new postoperative catheter solutions added to its product line. These include specialized catheters such as the Hematuria Management Catheter and the 3-Way Silicone Foley Catheter, both intended to facilitate effective continuous bladder irrigation following urological surgeries. These new offerings demonstrate Uno Medical's dedication to improving patient safety and comfort by addressing clinical issues like clot retention and ensuring efficient bladder drainage. This expansion enhances their portfolio in the CBI devices sector and positions the company to better support global healthcare providers with advanced urological care solutions.
