Empty IV Bags Market size was valued at USD 4,994.5 Million in 2023, expanding at a CAGR of 8.90% from 2024 to 2032.
Empty intravenous (IV) bags are medical containers that are empty of contents but made to store different intravenous fluids, including saline solution or drugs. In order to handle varying fluid quantities, they are usually manufactured of flexible plastic and come in a variety of sizes. These bags are essential for directly delivering therapies into the bloodstream in medical settings. They are attached to IV lines and used for intravenous therapy, transfusions, or hydration after being filled with the necessary solution or drug. The growing global cancer prevalence, more government initiatives, and rising rates of malnutrition are the main drivers expected to propel the empty IV bag market's growth throughout the forecast period. Additionally, the industry is anticipated to see potential prospects as a result of growing environmental consciousness regarding non-PVC IV bags.
Empty IV Bags Market- Market Dynamics
Rising Number of Surgical Procedures
It is anticipated that the market for empty IV bags will continue to expand due to the increasing number of surgical procedures. Medical interventions or treatments that use invasive techniques to repair or correct injuries, abnormalities, or health issues within the body are known as surgical procedures. The number of surgical procedures is rising as a result of greater access to healthcare, ageing populations, the incidence of chronic diseases, patient demand and expectations, and medical technological developments. The provision of vital fluids, drugs, blood products, and anaesthetic support during surgical procedures depends heavily on empty intravenous (IV) bags. For instance, a report released in January 2023 by the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS), a professional non-governmental organization based in the United States, stated that the total number of medical procedures performed in 2021 increased by 19.3%, with surgical procedures increasing by 18.5% and non-surgical procedures growing by 19.9% over 2020. Thus, the market for empty IV bags is expanding due to the increase in surgical procedures.
