Follow on Google News | Operating Room Equipment - Global Opportunity Assessment, Competitive LandscapeOperating Room Equipment Market is forecast to reach $990m by 2017
By: Rajesh Gunnam The market for operating room equipment in the US was valued at $288.8m in 2010 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.9% to reach $377.2m in 2017. The market for operating tables in the US is expected to be driven by an increase in the demand for specialized operating tables for complex surgical procedures. For instance, specialized operating tables now allow surgeons to safely perform hip replacement procedures. These operating tables have boots to hold the patient’s legs in and can be twisted using a wheel attached to the base of each foot. This way, the patient can lie on their back, and their leg can be gently twisted so that the surgeon has direct access to the relevant part of the hip. With regard to operating room lights, the small expected growth in the US market can be attributed to the shift from halogen lights to LED lights. Use of halogen lights has been restricted to community and rural hospitals with private practitioners being an economical option. The market for operating room equipment in the US is also expected to be driven by the emerging trend for hybrid operating rooms.

It also provides improved eye and airway visibility and unrestricted C-arm access. STERIS has launched a range of three improved general operating tables that slide, rotate and transport patients with a single caregiver throughout the peri-operative area. TRUMPF has released a modular-design operating table with up to three motorized joint pairs, which make it possible to use remote controls to position the patient quickly, safely and precisely.
