Airway Management Devices Patent Outlook

• Demand for effective airway management solutions is increased by the increased prevalence of respiratory conditions like asthma, sleep apnea, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which calls for these solutions.

• The need for airway management devices in both emergency and long-term care settings is growing as the world's population ages and becomes more susceptible to respiratory and cardiovascular diseases.

• To maintain patient safety and adequate ventilation during procedures, there is an increasing need for airway management devices due to the rise in surgical procedures, especially those involving general anesthesia.

What are Airway Management Devices?

Airway management devices are used to make sure that a patient's airway is open and clear so that adequate ventilation, oxygenation, and breathing can occur. Laryngeal masks, endotracheal tubes, and other instruments intended for use in critical care, emergency, and surgical settings are among these devices.

The components of airway management devices include infraglottic airway management devices, supraglottic airway management devices, laryngoscopes, resuscitators, and others. Infraglottic airway management devices are used to maintain the airway by inserting endotracheal or tracheostomy tubes through the vocal cords and into the trachea. These devices, which are frequently used in emergency, intensive care, and surgical settings, guarantee direct and controlled ventilation.

Airway Management Devices Industry Growth Drivers

Advancements in Airway Management Technologies is Expected to Boost the Patent Industry Growth

There is an increase in patent activity which focuses on enhancing the performance of airway management devices. There were 1,001 patents granted in 2022 and by 2023 around 1,065 patents were granted. The development of portable ventilators and video laryngoscopes, among other innovations in airway management technologies, has improved the efficacy, safety, and precision of airway management techniques. They propel market growth as these innovations give medical professionals more dependable and effective tools for patient care. For instance, the Philips Ventilator BiPAP A40 EFL has expanded its range of homecare solutions with the launch of this non-invasive ventilator, which offers a new ventilation therapy feature to help patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) breathe more easily.

Patents covering these technologies are crucial for companies and thus impact the airway management devices' patent landscape.

Rising Number of Surgical Procedures is Expected to Propel Airway Management Devices Patent Industry

To maintain patient safety and adequate ventilation during procedures, there is an increasing need for airway management devices due to the rise in surgical procedures, especially those involving general anesthesia.

Airway Management Devices Patent Segmentation

Airway Management Devices Patent Segmentation Analysis

The breakup based on type includes infraglottic airway management devices, supraglottic airway management devices, laryngoscopes, resuscitators, and others. Supraglottic airway management devices are used to keep a patient's airway open while under anaesthesia or in an emergency by positioning themselves above the vocal cords. These devices, like laryngeal masks, offer endotracheal intubation as a less intrusive option.

Airway Management Devices Patent Jurisdiction Analysis

The United States is one of the leading jurisdictions for airway management device patents, having around 26,500+ patents. The presence of big companies, well-established healthcare infrastructure, and advanced research and development activities contributes to the regional patent landscape significantly.

Patent Profile of Key Companies

Other companies include Alfen Medical Devices Dev Ltd, Alphin Medical Products Inc, Shenzhen Yinsaidesi Medical Technology Co Ltd, Alnylam Pharmaceuticals Inc, Honeywell Int INC, Cardiac Pacemakers INC, Covidien Lp, and Koninklijke Philips NV, among others.
