Every year, millions of people succumb to cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), which, as a disease category, remains the most important on a global scale. The data provided by the World Health Organization (WHO) further indicates that CVDs are responsible for nearly 17.9 million deaths of people every year. As the population ages and lifestyle-related risk factors such as obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes, and a sedentary lifestyle keep increasing, so will the numbers. Such alterations have resulted in more demand for cutting-edge non-invasive alternatives such as heart closure devices, which treat structural heart defects for a wide range of patients from all demographic groups.

Additionally, with the advent of heart closure devices, which are less intrusive, patients do not need to undergo open heart surgery anymore. Because consumers do not want to undergo open-heart surgery, these devices have become popular. They are also known to be less invasive. Cutting-edge non-invasive alternatives, such as heart closure devices, which treat structural heart defects for patients from all demographics across the globe, are in tremendous demand.
 

Moreover, heart closure devices are used in the surgical closure of congenital heart problems, including holes in the heart, specifically ventricular and atrial septal defects. During the birth of the baby, these defects form as abnormal openings which link the chambers of the heart, thus allowing the blood to flow in undesired directions.
 

Heart Closure Devices Market Trends

The market is expanding further due to technology improvement, which further fosters development of safer, more efficient, and less invasive treatment options for patients suffering from structural heart diseases.
 

• Biocompatible heart closure devices have been developed due to changes in the biomaterials used, thereby promoting better patient outcomes since there is a lowered risk of reverse adverse reactions. Modern devices now utilize materials that minimize blood clot formation and device-related infections.
   
• For instance, bioresorbable materials are ideal for pediatric cases where long-term device implantation is not ideal because these materials dissolve naturally with time. This makes it easier to improve the safety profile of heart closure devices, which enhances the patient's and clinician's confidence in using them.
   
• Moreover, developments in imaging technologies, such as three-dimensional echocardiography and intracardiac ultrasound, have revolutionized the visualization of heart defects and their treatment. These state-of-the-art imaging systems capture and display the internal structure of the heart in real-time and in high definition, thereby allowing the operators to minimize the risks associated with the procedure by accurately placing closure devices.
   
• Also, considering the ability to better define the target and the defect, and therefore to treat it more accurately, there is improvement in patient outcomes, which accelerates the incorporation of heart closure devices into the treatment procedures of choice for conditions affecting structural components of the heart.
