According to the report, the primary factor driving the reprocessed medical devices market’s growth is the increasing demand for the employment of cost-saving measures in the medical devices industry. A large number of healthcare organizations are already pushing for higher levels of recycling and reprocessing medical devices in an attempt to save on medical costs and expenditures. At the same time, these bodies are also acting in response to the growing pressure exerted by governments regarding the amount of medical waste currently generated. There is a marked increase in the number of initiatives taken by government organizations in the field of waste management, and support for the global reprocessed medical devices market is one of them.
Other significant factors promoting the global reprocessed medical devices market include the advancements in technologies that allow a better quality of reprocessed devices. This driver is applicable especially to North America.
According to the Association of Medical Device Reprocessors, a standard hospital or healthcare organization in the world can manage to generate savings of at least US$500,000 and up to US$2 mn annually, with the help of reprocessed medical devices.
The report also signals users of the various restraints that might affect the market’s growth in the near future. Of these, the most prominent inhibitor is the significantly lower level of awareness of quality reprocessed medical devices. Another hindrance to the global reprocessed medical devices market is the negative perception of patients as well as medical organizations toward reprocessing.
In terms of devices, the global reprocessed medical devices market is largely propelled by the cardiovascular devices segment, which is showing the fastest growth rate among all device types, for the given forecast period. This segment owes its growth rate to a higher rate of use and the improving quality of cardiovascular reprocessed devices.

The growth of the global microscopy devices market is gaining momentum due to several reasons. Pioneered by the Dutch almost a millennium ago owing to their mastery in optical lenses, today, microscopes have evolved and diversified exponentially. Besides their use for academic and exploratory research, microscopes are finding utilization in newer areas of nanotechnology, atomic-scale semiconductor devices that require higher penetrative mediums such as electrons, and X-rays. Thus, the use of microscopes befits nanoscale-range observations, thereby boosting innovations in several areas of exploratory research.
The rising demand for remote monitoring, especially for chronically ill patients has pushed the growth of the global wearable medical devices market.

The global wearable medical devices market is estimated to expand at a CAGR of 16.4% during the period between 2013 and 2019. The overall market was worth US$2.0 bn in 2012 and is projected to reach a valuation of US$5.80 bn by 2019.
Transparency Market Research has published a new market report titled, “Dental Consumables Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast 2015 - 2023.” According to the report, the global dental consumables market was valued at US$ 16,492.2 Mn in 2014 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of 5.7% from 2015 to 2023 to reach US$ 27,589.6 Mn in 2023.
Sterilization equipment and Disinfectants are used in healthcare facility to kill or eliminate harmful agents (such as bacteria, fungi and viruses) and are used as infection control agents. Increase in geriatric population coupled with rising number of surgeries in hospitals and clinics globally drive the growth of this market. According to the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately 46.5 million surgical procedures and 5 million gastrointestinal endoscopies are performed in the United States every year. Thus, with increasing number of surgeries the demand for sterilization equipment and disinfectants will also increase in order to avoid transmission of infection pathogens.

Knee implant procedures are done when a patient has knee pain, a traumatic injury or a disability from rheumatoid arthritis, or osteoarthritis. In the surgical process, a surgeon implants the device (artificial device) and replaces the damaged knee with it. There are many different types of implants - which are made of metal alloys, strong plastic parts or ceramic material.
Adhesion is one of the common problems affecting almost 55% to 90% patients followed by surgery. Adhesion is a band of scar tissue formed between organs and tissue after a surgery as a part of a normal healing process. However, when it connects wrong tissues into each other, adhesions may lead to severe clinical symptoms such as pelvic pain, intestinal blockage, infertility and loss of sensation depending on the location and size of the adhesions. Adhesions are most common after surgeries such as abdominal surgery, thoracic surgery, gynaecological surgery and plastic surgery. After abdominal surgery, bowels and pelvic organs may adhere with each other as a result of adhesion causing risks for small bowel obstruction and severe pain. The various types of adhesions based on their locations are abdominal adhesions, intestinal adhesions, intraperitoneal adhesions and pelvic adhesions.
Remote patient monitoring systems refer to a technology that enable monitoring of patients outside the conventional clinic or hospital premises. The main concept behind remote patient monitoring is to avoid the inconvenience caused to critical patients. Advanced remote patient monitoring systems include sophisticated peripherals that facilitate real time audio and video service. This enables face to face interaction between the patients and medicine professionals. These systems are highly useful as it reduces the travel time of patients to clinics and improves the medical consultation. This can reduce mortality rates and enable efficient use of medical resources. The connectivity between the patients and medical professionals is attained using wireless technologies such as wireless local area networks (WLAN) and cellular networks. Advanced remote patient monitoring systems helps in avoiding emergency overcrowding, manage large number of patients and improved maintenance of electronic health records (EHR).
