According to the deep-dive market assessment study by Growth Plus Reports, the global lithotripsy devices market was valued at US$ 1.73 billion in 2022 and is expected to register a revenue CAGR of 5.2% to reach US$ 2.73 billion by 2031.
Lithotripsy Devices Market Fundamentals
Lithotripsy is a medical procedure used to treat kidney stones. Large kidney stones are broken up into smaller ones using sound waves, and fluoroscopy makes it simple to see this process in action. By applying shock waves to the stone in the targeted location, ultrasonic waves break the stone into smaller bits that can flow through the urinary system. The x-ray focuses the kidney stone on these shock waves produced by lithotripter equipment. These waves enter the body through the skin and tissue, and when they finally get to the stone, they shatter it into tiny pieces. According to the National Renal Foundation, renal disease may affect 1 in 3 persons with diabetes and 1 in 5 adults with high blood pressure. According to a recent study by The George Washington University, Washington, D.C. will be the state with the highest prevalence of chronic renal disease in the US by 2022; around 1 in 3 American adults are at risk for kidney disease, and 26 million currently have it.

Lithotripsy Devices Market Dynamics
The main factors driving the market are a growth in urolithiasis prevalence, an increase in extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy treatments, and technological improvements. The main factors influencing the demand for lithotripsy devices include the rising prevalence of urolithiasis, a prevalent urologic condition, and a large global burden on the healthcare system with a risk of end-stage renal failure. According to a European Association of Urology report, urinary stone prevalence rates range from 1% to 20%. Renal stone prevalence is greater than 10% in nations with high living standards, such as Canada, Sweden, or the United States. Over the past 20 years, certain regions have seen a growth of more than 37%. The important factor propelling the market for lithotripsy devices is the increase in the elderly population around the world. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), 6.17 million individuals, or 8.5% of the world's population, are 65 or older. This percentage is predicted to rise to 17% in 2050, resulting in approximately 1.6 billion people reaching this age.
Additionally, the UN Population Fund and HelpAge India research indicates that by 2026, there will be 173 million people over 60 in India. The market's overall growth is supported by factors such as rising government support for diagnostic testing such as X-rays and urine microscopy tests and factors like increasing investments in the creation of cutting-edge technology. In nine out of 23 stones, complete disintegration with a diameter of less than 2 mm occurred within 10 minutes of the burst wave lithotripsy treatment, according to a recent report from the University of Washington School of Medicine in Seattle.
However, the lithotripsy procedure carries several risks, such as internal bleeding occasionally resulting from it, necessitating a blood transfusion. As a result of the obstruction in the urine flow tube caused by microscopic stone particles linked to difficulties like high blood pressure can also have adverse effects, including kidney damage.

Lithotripsy Devices Market by Type
The extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) devices segment accounts for the largest revenue share in the global lithotripsy devices market. Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy is a technique for treating stones in the kidney and ureter that do not require surgery. Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy is a non-surgical method for treating kidney and ureter stones. Instead, the body is subjected to extremely powerful shock waves that are used to smash rocks into sand-sized fragments. ESWL devices, also known as extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy devices, are used to treat kidney and ureter stones. This technology's benefits, such as minimum invasiveness, reduced discomfort, shorter hospital stays, and speedier recovery time, are likely to expand its penetration over the next years. This technology has already been used by doctors all over the world. The remarkable efficacy of ESWL for treating urinary calculi was noted in a study published in the journal Disease Markers in July 2022. The study also highlighted the procedure's safety and lower incidence of adverse effects. The least invasiveness of the ESWL treatment and its widespread use is further highlighted by a study that was published in the Urolithiasis in January 2023. The significant advancements in the extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy market are also anticipated to accelerate the segment's expansion. For instance, in September 2022, Advanced MedTech Holdings purchased the Chinese manufacturer of urology and shock wave therapy device, WIKKON. With the addition of the cutting-edge WIKKON portfolio of urological products, the acquisition would enhance Advanced MedTech Holdings' extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy offering.

Lithotripsy Devices Market by Region
North America accounts for the largest global lithotripsy devices market revenue share. US kidney disease data illustrates the burden of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention anticipated that 15% of adults, or around 37 million individuals, will have chronic renal disease in July 2022, which equates to one in seven persons. Over 50,000 lithotripsy treatments are performed annually in the United States due to the rise in kidney disease cases, which supports the growth of the lithotripsy devices market. Additionally, investments and innovations in the area are anticipated to accelerate the expansion of the North American lithotripsy market. For instance, an American medical device business specializing in renal care and kidney stone management obtained USD 32.7 million in funding in July 2022 as part of a Series C financing round that was co-led by Questa Capital and CR Group L.P. (CRG).
