The Chile extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy market size is expected to reach USD 3.45 million by 2028, registering a CAGR of 5.9% over the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Increasing risk factors that cause kidney stones and growing preference of patients for minimally invasive procedures coupled with technological advancements are contributing to the market growth. The rising cases of obesity and lifestyle-related diseases are also predicted to contribute to market growth.
Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) is a safe and effective method of delivering shock waves for the treatment of stones and physicians around the world generally utilize this technique as it involves less pain, requires low recovery time & a shorter hospital stay, and is non-invasiveness. The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant effect on the healthcare market. During the first wave of COVID-19, the lockdown and restrictions on gathering had a direct impact on productivity. The production units, on the other hand, began reopening in the third quarter of 2020.
The adoption of ESWL is also affected by the factors, such as limitations associated with ESWL and the presence of alternative treatment options. FONASA, Chile’s government-run health insurance scheme, covers 78% of the country’s population. As a result, Chile’s National Health System (SNSS - Sistema Nacional de Servicios de Salud) is the country’s largest buyer. The market is projected to experience a growth spike as the Piera administration continues to implement its hospital infrastructure plan.
