The global fluid management and visualization systems market has experienced steady growth in the past few years, mainly due to various advancements in the endosurgical fluid management and visualization techniques. Factors that are expected to boost the market growth include the rapid rise in the number of people prone to gastrointestinal, laparoscopic, orthopedic, neurological, and nephrological diseases; growing preference for minimally invasive surgeries; and cost-efficiency of these surgeries in terms of pre- and post-operation care costs and length of stay at hospitals. The technological advancements and breakthroughs in the field of fluid management and visualization systems are expected to drive the global market in the coming years. Other factors that are driving the growth of the global market include a favorable reimbursement scenario in developed regions, increasing prevalence/incidences of diseases requiring endoscopy procedures, and an increase in the government funding for hospitals.
