Market Dynamics and Supply Chain

Driver: Rise in Digestive Disorders

The rise in disorders globally has also led to a surge in the demand for endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) procedures—particularly due to chronic conditions like gallstones and pancreatitis as well as biliary tract cancers driving the growth of the ERCP sector forward significantly. The invasive diagnostic and treatment capabilities of ERCP have also made it a favored option, among healthcare professionals.
Recent progress in the realm of endoscopy has also significantly enhanced the ERCP industrys growth trajectory. These advancements have also paved the way for cutting edge definition and 3D imaging technologies that offer enhanced and intricate visual representations. Moreover they have also bolstered the safety, efficiency and efficacy of ERCP procedures in terms of both diagnosis and treatment. Breakthrough innovations such, as guidewire assisted cannulation, single operator cholangioscopy and endoscopic ultrasonography exemplify this transformative evolution.

Restraint: High Cost of ERCP Procedures

The price of Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) differs significantly depending on the location and type of healthcare facility where it is performed. The high expenses associated with the procedure include not the actual ERCP procedure but also hospitalization costs, endoscopic equipment and follow up medical care. This poses a challenge as it limits access to care for many individuals, in low and middle income countries who are unable to bear these expenses resulting in a smaller pool of potential patients.

Challenge: Lack of Skilled Professionals

Performers of ERCP procedures consist of gastroenterologists and surgical gastroenterologists who require specific training for their execution, which contributes to the challenge in carrying out procedures and consequently hampers market expansion due, to the global shortage of these highly skilled professionals.
