Lithotripsy is a non-invasive treatment using ultrasonic shock waves to disintegrate kidney or ureteric stones to allow passage through the urinary tract system with less discomfort to the patient. Lithotripsy treats kidney stones by sending focused ultrasonic energy or shock waves directly to the stone first located with fluoroscopy or ultrasound. The shock waves break a large stone into smaller stones that will pass through the urinary system. Ultrasonic lithotripsy makes use of mechanical vibration to break stones into smaller fragments that may be aspirated with specialized probes. Lithotripsy has long proven to be an effective, less invasive method for breaking up stones in the kidney, bladder, or ureter.

LITHOTRIPSY DEVICES MARKET OUTLOOK

The global lithotripsy devices market has gained outstanding growth due to increasing incidence of urolithiasis and growing adoption of minimally invasive techniques. Urolithiasis is a common urologic issue, and constitutes a significant burden on the healthcare system, worldwide. Affecting about 12% of the world population, it has been associated with an increased risk of end-stage renal failure, which has increased the demand for lithotripsy devices. Hence, the increasing prevalence of kidney stones is the major factor expected to drive the growth of the lithotripsy devices market, over the forecast period. The other driving factors includes the rise in number of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy procedures and technological advancements. However, adverse effects associated with lithotripsy and the availability of alternative treatments for stone removal are hindering the market growth.
