Myocardial Infarction Global Market Report 2025

Myocardial infarction, commonly known as a heart attack, poses a severe health risk, occurring when the blood flow to a segment of the heart muscle is obstructed, leading to tissue damage or death. This critical condition is often instigated by elevated levels of low-density lipoprotein, hypertension, and tobacco use.

Within the realm of myocardial infarction treatment, various drug classes play pivotal roles in managing and mitigating the condition's impact. These encompass antiplatelet agents, glycoprotein IIB/IIIA inhibitors, antithrombotic agents, beta-adrenergic blockers, vasodilators, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, angiotensin-receptor blockers, analgesics, and thrombolytics. Antiplatelet agents specifically target the prevention of blood clot formation by inhibiting platelet aggregation. Available in both oral and injectable formulations, these agents are accessible through a diverse range of distribution channels, including hospital pharmacies, retail pharmacies, and online platforms.

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 sharp rise in U.S. tariffs and the resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are having a significant impact on the healthcare sector, especially in the supply of essential medical devices, diagnostic equipment, and pharmaceuticals. Hospitals and healthcare providers are grappling with higher costs for imported surgical tools, imaging systems, and consumables like syringes and catheters, many of which have limited domestic substitutes. These escalating expenses are putting pressure on healthcare budgets, prompting some providers to delay equipment upgrades or pass increased costs on to patients. Furthermore, tariffs on raw materials and components are disrupting the manufacturing of vital drugs and devices, leading to supply chain delays. In response, the industry is adopting diversified sourcing strategies, expanding local production where feasible, and pushing for tariff exemptions on critical medical products.

The myocardial infarction market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides myocardial infarction market statistics, including myocardial infarction industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a myocardial infarction market share, detailed myocardial infarction market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the myocardial infarction industry. This myocardial infarction market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.

The myocardial infarction market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.05 billion in 2024 to $2.19 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to the introduction of beta-blockers, the establishment of chest pain centers, thrombolytic therapies, personalized medicine approaches, and wearable cardiovascular devices.

The myocardial infarction market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.92 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to global health initiatives for cardiovascular health, expanded access to reperfusion therapies, RNA therapeutics for cardiovascular diseases, patient-centered care models, focus on microvascular dysfunction, and bioelectronic medicine. Major trends in the forecast period include advancements in cardiovascular imaging, advancements in cardiac surgery techniques, advancements in telemedicine, integration of artificial intelligence in diagnosis, innovation of digital biomarkers for risk prediction, blockchain for healthcare data security, ai-driven drug discovery, and innovations in cardiac rehabilitation technologies.

The forecast of 7.4% growth over the next five years reflects a slight reduction of 0.1% from the previous projection. This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. Tariff barriers are expected to hamper the U.S. emergency care system by increasing the cost of drug-eluting stents and high-sensitivity troponin assays sourced from Ireland and Singapore, thereby delaying life-saving interventions and elevating cardiology department costs. The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.

The anticipated growth of the myocardial infarction market is expected to be driven by an increasing number of smokers. Individuals who engage in smoking, whether through cigarettes, cigars, or pipes, expose themselves to chemicals present in tobacco smoke. These substances have the potential to thicken and clot the blood in veins and arteries, leading to blockages that can result in myocardial infarction. A notable example is the data from the UK-based Office for National Statistics in September 2023, revealing that the segment of the UK population aged 25 to 34 years had the highest percentage of current smokers, accounting for 16.3% or approximately 1.4 million individuals in 2022. This marked an increase from the previous year, when the same age group had a smoking prevalence of 15.8%, encompassing around 1.3 million people. Consequently, the growing number of smokers is a significant factor propelling the growth of the myocardial infarction market.

The increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases is anticipated to drive the growth of the myocardial infarction market in the future. Cardiovascular diseases encompass a range of disorders that affect the heart and blood vessels. Drug classes for myocardial infarction are used to manage and treat these conditions, particularly in the aftermath of heart attacks. For example, in September 2024, data published by the British Heart Foundation, a UK-based cardiovascular research charity, indicated that approximately 7.6 million people in the UK are affected by heart and circulatory diseases, comprising about 4 million males and 3.6 million females. These conditions account for around 27% of all deaths in the UK, resulting in over 170,000 fatalities annually, or roughly 480 deaths each day, which translates to one death every three minutes. Thus, the rising incidence of cardiovascular diseases is fueling the growth of the myocardial infarction market.

Major companies in the myocardial infarction market are focused on developing novel drugs, such as anti-inflammatory drugs, for targeted cardiovascular inflammation treatment and to gain a competitive edge in the market. Anti-inflammatory drugs are medications that reduce inflammation, alleviating pain and swelling by targeting the body's immune response. For instance, in June 2023, Agepha Pharma, a Slovakia-based manufacturer of medical products, received FDA approval for its developed drug, Lodoco (colchicine), the first anti-inflammatory drug to target the underlying cause of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Lodoco aims to reduce the risk of myocardial infarction, stroke, coronary revascularization, and cardiovascular death in adult patients. It can be used alone or with cholesterol-lowering medications. Lodoco, a reformulated low-dose colchicine, demonstrated a 31% reduction in the overall risk of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, or coronary revascularization in a clinical trial.

Major companies in the myocardial infarction market are focused on developing advanced devices that utilize technology, such as SmartAssist dual-sensor technology, to address acute right heart failure and to maximize their profits in the market. SmartAssist dual-sensor technology refers to a system equipped with two sensors designed to gather and monitor advanced metrics in a medical device. For instance, in October 2022, Abiomed, a US-based provider of medical technology, received FDA approval for its Impella RP Flex with SmartAssist. It is implanted via the internal jugular vein; it allows patient mobility and features dual-sensor technology for optimal patient management and weaning. The Impella RP platform includes percutaneous right heart mechanical circulatory support technologies designed for native heart recovery. Impella RP with SmartAssist has received approval from the U.S. FDA for the treatment of right heart failure or decompensation after procedures including left ventricular assist device implantation, myocardial infarction, and heart transplant.

In December 2022, Johnson & Johnson, a leading US-based healthcare products conglomerate, finalized the acquisition of Abiomed for a notable sum of $16.6 billion. This strategic acquisition positions Johnson & Johnson MedTech to integrate heart recovery solutions from Abiomed into its existing Biosense Webster electrophysiology division.
