Left Atrial Appendage Closure Devices Market Expected To Witness A Substantial Growth Of $5.7 Billion By 2030: Grand View Research Inc.
The global left atrial appendage closure devices market size is expected to reach a value of USD 5.7 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 20.5% during the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Increasing incidences of atrial fibrillation (AF) is expected to raise the left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) devices demand during the forecast period, which will further boost the market development.
The most prevalent arrhythmic
condition in the world, AF affects more than 2.3 million individuals in the
United States and 4.5 million in the European Union. With age, the incidence
and disorder burden of AF increases, accounting for 15% of all strokes. The
left atrial appendage (LAA) closure devices market has been greatly impacted by
COVID-19. The pandemic prompted non-urgent operations, such as structural heart
(SH) interventional surgery to be postponed or canceled, thereby, negatively
impacting the market during 2020.
The COVID-19 outbreak had a temporary
negative impact on product demand, significant delays in clinical trials,
disrupted operations, and the market witnessed a detrimental effect on
financial performance. For instance, AtriCure reported that its business was
most impacted in the second, third, and fourth quarters of 2020, in terms of
the decline in patients and revenue from the shelter-in-place restrictions in a
majority of the countries and limitations on procedures in hospitals. However,
the market witnessed growth from the third quarter of 2020, as patient
procedure volume trends and availability of healthcare resources improved owing
to a lift in certain restrictions.
The LAAC device industry is
competitive and significantly affected by the new product introductions and
other strategic activities of the industry participants. Market leaders are
involved in the establishment of extensive distribution systems as well as
increasingly engaged in mergers &acquisitions to capture a larger share of
the market. For instance, in February 2022, Boston Scientific Corporation
completed the acquisition of Baylis Medical Company Inc., a privately-held
corporation that has developed the Versa Cross Transseptal Platforms including
a family of sheaths, guidewires, and dilators used to support left heart
access. Thus, expanded Boston Scientific Corporation’s electrophysiology and
structural heart product portfolios.

There has been a considerable demand
in the industry due to the rising prevalence of the atrial fibrillation, one of
the most difficult conditions where appendage treatment is required. Increasing
prevalence of the atrial fibrillation is credited to a high-calorie diet,
smoking, and physical inactivity. The industry is witnessing strong demand,
owing to the changes in lifestyle, better access to healthcare services, and
rising geriatric population, prone to CVDs. Furthermore, electrophysiology
procedures represent a significant opportunity to the market. Technological
advancements in interventional treatments and improvements in the diagnosis
pathway are the factors driving significant growth in the number of people
treated with electrophysiology procedures. Effectiveness of the implants and
procedural safety has greatly improved in developed as well as in developing
country.
Left Atrial
Appendage Closure Devices Market Report Highlights
- Endocardial dominated the technique
segment of the left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) devices market in
2021. Endocardial implants are considered to be easier for using.
The availability of a wide range of
products also contributes to segment growth
- The epicardial segment is expected to
grow at a lucrative rate during the forecast period. Epicardial procedures
possess benefits over some endocardial device features. Anticoagulation is
not necessary while using epicardial devices, not even immediately after the
procedure
- The hospital segment held the largest
share of over 77% in 2021. Due to the increasing popularity of LAA
surgeries and the growing acceptance of LAA closure devices in hospitals,
they make up the largest end-use segment for the left atrial appendage
closure devices
- Asia Pacific region is anticipated to
register rapid growth in coming years owing to the presence of high unmet
needs coupled with increasing patient awareness levels and improving
healthcare infrastructure
- Growing R&D investments by the key
companies and geographic expansion, as well as an increase in product
portfolios, are the factors expected to contribute to the market growth.
In August 2021, Abbott has received U.S. FDA approval for its Amplatzer
Amulet LAA Occluder to treat individuals with atrial fibrillation
The market for left atrial appendage
closure (LAAC) devices has been greatly impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak. The
pandemic and the measures put in place to manage it have negatively impacted on
the company’s operations and financial position. Hospitals, ambulatory surgery
centers, and other treatment facilities reduced many elective procedures,
resulting in a significantly reduced procedure volume. Moreover, non-urgent
operations such as structural heart interventional surgeries were cancelled.
As per the study published in National
Library of Medicine, the number of cardiac surgeries performed in England
during the COVID-19 pandemic has decreased dramatically, by over 45,000
procedures, without an increase in the mortality risk for the majority of these
treatments.
However, market players saw a sharp
rebound in 2021, with sales across business segments higher than during the
pandemic. Boston Scientifics’ revenue grew above 19% to $11.88 billion in 2021
during the last twelve months. The increase in revenue was primarily led by the
higher sales for its Interventional Cardiology, Electrophysiology, and Urology
as well as Pelvic Health. Due to increased physician utilization, its left
atrial appendage (LAA) closure device, Watchman, has gained market share, thus
strengthening its overall revenue growth.
