    “The surgical tables market was valued at US$ 1,060 million in 2023 and is likely to grow at a promising CAGR of 4.2% in the long run to reach US$ 1,428 million in 2030”.

    Market Dynamics

    Introduction

    Efficient and advanced surgical tables are key facilitators of surgical precision. The surgical table, the cornerstone of the operating theatre has undergone revolutionary innovations that improve the accuracy of procedures and the overall patient treatment. These tables are designed to provide a stable and adjustable platform for the patient while allowing the surgical team to access the operative site with ease.

    Considering the complexity of certain procedures that require patients to be in specific positions, there has been a continuous increase in the demand for specialty surgical tables, including orthopedic tables, imaging tables, and powered tables. Other surgery tables include custom tables, electric C-arm OT tables, bariatric operating tables, Berchtold operating tables, hydraulic OT tables, ENT operating tables, radioactive operating tables, neurology tables, and ophthalmic OT tables.

    Key Market Drivers:

    As healthcare providers prioritize patient safety, comfort, and operational efficiency, they are increasingly investing in high-quality surgical tables, ultimately driving market growth. Several other factors are giving a thrust to long-term demand in the market:

    • The increasing aging population worldwide and the rising number of hospital admissions by geriatric patients, specifically those suffering from end-stage chronic diseases that involve surgical treatment: According to UNFPA data, the global share of people aged 65 and over has nearly doubled from 5.5% in 1974 to 10.3% in 2024. This figure is projected to reach 20.7% by 2074, with the number of those aged 80 and over more than tripling.
    • Increasing number of surgeries: A new study presented at the 2023 Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) found that, based on projection models, orthopedic surgeons will need to either double their total joint arthroplasty (TJA) caseload or increase the number of surgeons by 10% every five years to meet demand.
    • Increasing healthcare spending: According to WHO, global spending on health continued to increase in 2021, the second year of the pandemic, to US$ 9.8 trillion (10.3% of global GDP).
    • Need for replacement of old and outdated surgery tables: Surgery tables or operating theater tables can typically last for 10 to 15 years. For traditional tables, spare parts may even become obsolete in a few years, thus making it nearly impossible to repair them. The dire need to replace outdated and traditional surgical tables with newer, advanced, and more efficient surgical tables is also likely to augment the long-term demand.

    Getinge Group, Baxter International Inc. (HillRom), Mizuho Medical Co. Ltd., Skytron LLC, Steris Corporation, Stille AB, Stryker Corporation, and Dräger are the leading players in the surgical tables market.

    The USA is estimated to remain dominant in the surgical tables market in the foreseeable future. The country's market is characterized by a strong focus on technological innovation in healthcare. Surgeons and healthcare facilities in the region are quick to adopt advanced technologies, driving the demand for newer, more sophisticated surgical tables. Moreover, there is a growing trend towards outpatient surgeries, fueled by factors such as cost-effectiveness, shorter recovery times, and advancements in minimally invasive techniques.

    Composites is expected to be the fastest-growing segment in the market in the coming years. Carbon fiber is chosen for its high strength-to-weight ratio, rigidity, and, most importantly, its radiolucency. For instance, carbon fiber composites are used for MRI tables because they are strong, lightweight, and non-magnetic. The carbon fiber does not affect the MRI signal, which allows for clear images without any distortion or artifacts. X-ray tables and accessories – such as headrests and arm supports also often use carbon fiber composites.
