Global Self-Destructing Syringe Market By Size (1ml, 3ml, 5ml, 10ml, 20ml), By End-Use (Hospitals and Clinics, Pathology Laboratory, Family Practices and Diabetic Patients), By Region, and Key Companies - Industry Segment Outlook, Market Assessment, Competition Scenario, Trends and Forecast 2021-2031

Medical self-destructive syringes are constructed with a mechanical valve incorporated into the plunger, which then passes through the barrel. These syringes are also known as Auto Disable (AD) smart syringes because they have a small ring carved on the inside of the barrel that allows the plunger to move in only one direction while locking the other.

When the injection process is complete, the plunger returns to its original position. These syringes also include a needle cap to protect users from inadvertent needle sticks, as well as an aspiration device to make the overall process faster and more accurately. Self-destructive syringes have several advantages, including preventing the transmission of infections because they cannot be reused.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), over 1.3 million people die each year owing to syringe reuse, with the expense of such illnesses totaling more than US$100 billion each year. Infectious diseases such as Hepatitis B, HIV, and AIDS are spread via infected needles.

Each year, approximately 22 million instances of hepatitis B are caused by the reuse of syringes. These syringes can only be effectively deactivated by fully depressing the plunger, retracting the needle, sticking the core rod, or breaking the core rod automatically after use. These syringes automatically disable the re-use prevention mechanism and do not allow the user to re-use the syringe.

Market Dynamics –

Drivers for the Global Self-Destructing Syringe Market:

The surge in demand from healthcare professionals and hospitals for the treatment of patients suffering from infectious diseases such as HIV, Hepatitis-B, Aids, and other chronic disorders is a key factor augmenting the global medical self-destructive syringes market.

Restraints Global Self-Destructing Syringe Market:

The need for safe and dependable health practitioners to use these syringes around the world, as well as the need for waste removal plans in general to deal with the massive amount of medical waste that is generated from around the world each year is of paramount importance. However, the lethargic adoption levels of these medical devices has inadvertently hampered the market for medical self-destructive syringes.

Opportunities for the Global Self-Destructing Syringe Market:

Increasing public awareness of self-destructible syringes, as well as lower manufacturing costs and additional investment requirements necessary to facilitate further technological improvements, could be a profound opportunity for the self-destructible syringe market to expand.

Trends for the Global Self-destructing Syringe Market:

Owing to the unfavorable environmental conditions in this region, North America is predicted to lead the medical self-destructive syringes market with a high potential rate of further due exacerbating the presence of infectious diseases such as Hepatitis-B, and HIV, among others. According to the Hepatitis-B Foundation, approximately 80,000 Americans are diagnosed with the virus each year, with more than 2 million Americans chronically living with this virus.

Recent Developments of Major Players –

• On June 17, 2019, the Arab Organization for Industrialization (AOI) and the Arab Ministry of Health inked a protocol aimed at achieving self-sufficiency in self-destructing syringes and meeting all of the Ministry of Health’s sophisticated medical equipment needs. Regular syringes will be completely banned in April, 2020, according to the Arab Health Ministry, and will be replaced by self-destructing syringes by July, 2020.
• By the end of 2019, the Medintech investor plans to build a plant in Lotus SEZ to manufacture third-generation reuse-prevention medical devices. The investor has channeled over 700 million Rubles towards this project, which plans to manufacture over 200 million syringes every year. Several medical devices have been utilized in the Southern Federal District. This is a third-generation syringe since it can’t be used again once utilized.
