Market Overview
Side Effects of Oral Drugs Boost Adoption of Pain Management Devices
In Europe, pain management devices are being increasingly used to treat chronic pain. These devices have been in use for more than two decades now and have proved to be successful in the treatment of low back pain, post-operative pain, as well as pain due to neurogenic orgin, arthritis and cancer. The pain management devices markets are currently in the initial stages of growth and there is significant untapped potential. The markets have overcome the initial inertia and are set to achieve steady growth over the next decade.
"Pain management devices relieve chronic pain without any undesirable side effects," notes the analyst of this research service. "As prolonged use of certain oral drugs often leads to side effects, patients are increasingly opting for pain management devices over pharmaceutical measures." While devices such as intrathecal pumps and patient controlled anaesthesia (PCA) will experience increased demand, technological advances have resulted in advanced neuro stimulators. In comparison to other pain management devices, neuromodulation devices are likely to experience strong growth and the availability of these sophisticated products will revolutionise growth in the European markets.
Awareness Promotion among Physicians and Patients Crucial for Market Success
"There is a lack of awareness among primary care physicians and patients of the benefits of pain management devices," states the analyst. "Besides, physicians lack the required training for the implantation of such devices and find it easy to prescribe oral painkillers instead." In certain countries, pain management devices are not reimbursed as they are not considered a treatment option, but merely as products that improve the quality of life. This is yet another factor hindering market expansion.
At present, the pain management industry devices markets are cannibalised by the drug-based therapy markets. This is attributed to the fact that oral painkillers are easily available over the counter (OTC) and are simple to use when compared to pain management devices. Given the situation, creating awareness of pain management devices among physicians will prove beneficial. Apart from this, emphasis on customer service such as immediate response to feedback and timely attention to patient and physician complaints will become crucial. Market participants would also do well to establish relationship with physicians in order to gain credibility, win purchase orders and establish their brand.
