The trans-radial BP monitor is a type of radial artery compression device. This is a simple model that has the cuff attached to the wrist. The cuff is inflated by pumping air into a bag and it applies a constant pressure transversely to the vein it is connected to. The pressure is measured with the help of a probe that is placed at the access site. The next kind of radial artery compression device is the transparent band. This device is a simple model that is similar to the cuff but the difference being that this is more comfortable for the patient. In addition to that, a transparent band is easy to use since it does not have to be placed on the wrist of the patient. However, limitations of the procedures and conventional methods of accessing the femoral artery are the main factors that are hindering the growth of the global radial artery compression device market.
Owing to the increase of cardiovascular health issues in the region, North America is witnessing heavy demand in the global radial artery compression device market. For instance, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in 2018 around 30.3 million adult residents in the U.S. were suffering from cardiovascular issues. Annually around 647,000 residents die from these issues, which has made cardiovascular health problems the main cause of death in the region. Moreover, the presence of key market players in the region is augmenting the growth of the market. Owing to such factors, there have been significant industrial developments in the global radial artery compression device market. For instance, in November 2019, Terumo Corporation acquired Aortic Corporation... Read more
