Technological advancements in hemodialysis catheters include the use of high-quality imaging data for optimal catheter placement, and the development of advanced techniques like endovascular AVF, are anticipated to propel the market growth.
For instance, the development of minimally invasive procedures like endoAVF, that uses advanced image guidance technology for the precise creation of AVFs, reduces hospital stay durations, accelerate patient recovery, and decrease the risk of infection.
Additionally, new hemodialysis equipment and devices, such as the WavelinQ from Becton, Dickinson and Company—a dual catheter device placed under fluoroscopy—and the Ellipsys from Medtronic—a single catheter electrocautery device placed under ultrasound—show promising results with arteriovenous fistula (AVF) patency at 24 months, indicating excellent cumulative patency.
Furthermore, the use of artificial intelligence (AI) for central venous catheter tip position classification on chest X-rays and sensing technologies for extravasation detection are emerging advancements in hemodialysis catheters. These technologies are garnering attention from healthcare professionals, driving market growth by reducing complications and improving procedural accuracy and safety.
