Understanding market size can be crucial to evaluate opportunities and make informed decisions about market entry and exit. Medical device companies can identify attractive segments in respective markets as well as develop marketing strategies based on forecasts for those segments.

Physical designs vary depending on the type of Percutaneous Drainage Catheter at hand, which often leads to its intervention-specific use. Four types of Percutaneous Drainage Catheters are covered, namely Multipurpose, Nephrostomy, Biliary, and Centesis Drainage Catheters. While the drainage catheters can be purchased as either stand-alone devices or as part of drainage kits and trays, GlobalData opted to report the average selling prices of the catheters as stand-alone devices, thereby limiting the influence of non-catheter components in drainage kits and trays driving up the catheter prices. Based on real world purchasing data, sales volumes of drainage kits and trays were taken into consideration when evaluating the market size. Multipurpose Drainage Catheters are pigtailed drainage catheters that are primarily used to address abscesses that are often bacteriologically contaminated due to post-surgical complications. Nephrostomy Drainage Catheters are pigtailed drainage catheters that are used to drain abnormal fluid accumulation in the kidneys, which often occur due to an obstruction in the downstream urinary pathway. Biliary Drainage Catheters are pigtailed drainage catheters that are used to drain abnormal fluid accumulation in the biliary ducts, which often occur due to an obstruction in the downstream biliary ducts. Centesis Drainage Catheters are primarily straight catheters that are used in thoracentesis and paracentesis drainage interventions when managing pleural effusion or peritoneal effusion, respectively.

The percutaneous drainage catheters market in South Africa can expand or contract due to a variety of reasons including population demographics, disease incidence and prevalence, macroeconomic issues, and geopolitical considerations. Disruption to a market could be caused by a sudden, unexpected change in these factors, but it could also be driven by changes in clinical practice, leading to a change in diagnosis or treatment of patients, as part of a process to generally improve medical practice.
