Growing Preference for Self-Catheterization and Increasing Investments in Urinary Catheter Developments Boosts Asia Pacific Intermittent Catheters Market
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostatitis are among the most common reasons for intermittent self-catheterization in men. Many women face difficulties in bladder control, which compels them to opt for intermittent self-catheterization, which assists them to lead a normal life. Companies in the catheter market are increasingly investing in efforts to introduce newer products. In 2022, Convatec introduced the GentleCath catheter line, which features FeelClean Technology, a groundbreaking innovation. The next-generation material used in GentleCath catheters with FeelClean Technology is naturally slippery when wet, negating the need for a coating. They reduce the risk of trauma or bleeding and the associated pain since they have low friction levels during insertion and do not become sticky when removed. Thus, the increasing preference for self-catheterization and investments in urinary catheter developments are likely to create significant growth opportunities in the market in the coming years.
Asia Pacific Intermittent Catheters Market Overview
China has one of the world's fastest-growing geriatric populations. According to the WHO, in China, adults over 60 years old are expected to account for 28% of the population by 2040, owing to higher life expectancy and lower fertility rates. This massive demographic shift creates numerous challenges and opportunities for public health and socioeconomic development, particularly an integrated system that addresses the health and social needs of older people while providing equal access to healthcare. Older adults are more likely to experience chronic urinary retention, which will increase the use of intermittent catheters for treatment.
