Research and Markets: MediPoint: Bioabsorbable Stents - Global Analysis and Market Forecasts

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/j583k4/medipoint) has announced the addition of GlobalData's new report "MediPoint: Bioabsorbable Stents - Global Analysis and Market Forecasts" to their offering.

“MediPoint: Bioabsorbable Stents - Global Analysis and Market Forecasts”

Coronary artery disease and peripheral artery disease are global public health and socioeconomic issues that affect millions of lives each year. Bioabsorbable stents, which provide transient support to the vessel and degrade overtime, are viable alternatives to permanent drug-eluting and bare metal stent implants. In the report, bioabsorbable stents are defined as fully biodegradable stents that completely disappear over time. The emerging Bioabsorbable Stent (BAS) market is steadily growing in the major markets in Europe (France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK), dominated by Abbott Vascular and Kyoto Medical Planning, with new entrants including Biotronik, REVA Medical and Elixir Medical Corporation. In the US, bioabsorbable stents have not received regulatory approval and are not available for sale. By the end of our forecast period, the competitive landscape will experience significant change due to the launch of BAS products in the US, the expansion of approved indications to include patients with more complex forms of coronary and peripheral artery disease and the entry of new companies such as OrbusNeich and Arterial Remodelling Technologies by 2018. This report is built using data and information sourced from secondary sources and primary research interviews with leading Interventional Cardiologists, Cardiovascular Surgeons and Interventional Radiologists with in-house analysis conducted by Our team of industry experts.
