Significant Empty IV Bag Market Dynamics:
Increased Cancer Rates:
A strong rendering driver is the increasing prevalence of cancer. In general, cancer increases the need for parenteral nutrition, such as increased incidence of gastric ulcers, dysfunction of the normal gastrointestinal tract, and formation of physical blockages. Moreover, cancer treatment weakens and fatally deprives the human body of nutrients. Anorexia or unintentional weight loss is another common symptom associated with cancer requiring parenteral management.
Increased PVC IV Bag Ban Growth:
Demand for eco-friendly IV bags has surged in recent years as most countries restrict the use of PVC IV bags to prevent their negative impact on the environment. Most of the demand for these IV bags comes from specialty hospitals dealing with gallbladder surgery, kidney stones and intestinal infections. Growing demand for eco-friendly IV bags has boosted the global empty IV bags market.
Refund Policy:
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and other government agencies have extensive reimbursement policies for surgeries involving IV bags. Several countries also have reimbursement plans in place for procedures using IV bags. These rules boost the sales of IV bags across the globe, increasing the global empty IV bags market.
Opportunities:
Growth is also expected to be aided by favorable refund regulations in many countries. In the United States, CMS covers a variety of surgeries and treatments requiring an IV bag. Likewise, IV bag sales are likely to increase as various government agencies cover some aspects of the treatment process in different countries. The increasing incidence of chronic diseases such as cancer has a favorable impact on the use of parenteral nutrition in the United States.
Restraints/Challenges:
High costs associated with research and development capabilities in product manufacturing, and limited infrastructure facilities that create challenges for the empty IV bag market. Plastic IV bags, one of the most basic and essential tools in modern medicine, are under a health-threatening attack. PVC bags and tubes can sometimes leak traces of plastic into the items you store.
