Prefilled Safety Devices Market - Global Size, Trends, Company Analysis, Growth, and Forecast 2019 - 2027

Prefilled Safety Devices

Prefilled safety devices are devices that have been developed as a result of advancements in the traditional type of syringes, where the needles are designed with a safety system to prevent needle sticks or other needle-related wounds. These needles are designed to alleviate patient pain while also protecting healthcare workers from dangerous contamination. These syringes have needles, which allow for safe drug transmission and eliminate the abuse of used syringes because the needles can be disposed of and removed after use. There are other syringes with protective shields available. A huge number of hospitals, clinics, and other healthcare facilities across the world employ Prefilled Safety Devices Market. These are made to reduce the number of needle-stick wounds and the risk of illnesses spreading as a result of these wounds. The spread of infection caused by the reuse of needles and syringes can be avoided by properly managing old syringes.

According to a survey done by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2016, around 16 billion injections are given to patients worldwide each year, with nearly 90% of them being administered for preventive purposes. Syringe risks are widespread over the world, particularly in underdeveloped nations, where there is a high risk of infection among health care personnel and patients. Syringe misuse can result in malaria, hemorrhagic fevers, including the Marburg and Ebola viruses, and other diseases. During the forecast period, rising awareness regarding prefilled safety devices is expected to be a key driver of the global Prefilled Safety Devices Market growth. However, throughout the forecast period, the worldwide prefilled safety devices market is anticipated to be hampered by a lack of knowledge regarding the dangers of reusing prefilled syringes.

The global Prefilled Safety Devices Market may be divided into four categories: product type, operation method, end-user, and geography. The market can be segmented into retractable needles and safety syringes, safety hypodermic needles, and others based on product type. The global prefilled safety devices market may be divided into the active mechanism, passive mechanism, and others based on the mode of action. The market can be divided into hospitals, clinics, and others based on the end-user. 

North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Middle East, and Africa make up the Prefilled Safety Devices Market. North America leads the global prefilled safety devices market, followed by Europe, owing to rising demand for safe prefilled syringes, technological advancements, and strong government rules to prevent improper medical practices in the region. The prefilled safety devices market in the Asia Pacific and Latin America is expected to grow substantially in the near future, thanks to local manufacturers' increased manufacturing of low-cost safety devices and patient acceptance of novel technology. Furthermore, international manufacturers are focusing on these regions' growing countries due to quick approvals and little competition in these markets.
