The global nanotechnology-based medical devices market is expected to grow at a significant CAGR of around 11-12% during the forecast period (2014-2019). The market is mainly driven by the growth in aging population rising adoption of nanotechnology-based medical devices and increased nanotechnology R&D expenditure. In addition the governments of several nations are investing heavily in developing and commercializing new nanotechnology products. However safety issues regarding nanotechnology-based medical devices stringent regulatory guidelines and time-consuming approval processes for these devices are hampering the growth of this market to a certain extent.

Active implantable devices accounted for a major share of the nanotechnology-based medical devices the market. The nanotechnology-based medical devices market for active implantable devices is primarily driven by the growing incidence of age-related disorders such as hearing and cardiovascular disorders. In addition the growing awareness about these diseases and increased acceptance of the hearing aid devices are further driving the market for active implantable devices.

In 2013 North America accounted for the largest share to the global nanotechnology-based medical devices market followed by Europe Asia-Pacific and RoW. However Asia-Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region during the forecast period owing to the rapidly aging population rising adoption of advanced nanotechnology-based medical devices increased accessibility to healthcare facilities and rising R&D and healthcare expenditure.

The global nanotechnology-based medical devices market is dominated by six players that accounted for around 65-70% of the global market in 2014. The major players in the global nanotechnology-based medical devices market are Stryker Corporation (U.S.) 3M Company (U.S.) St. Jude Medical Inc. (U.S.) Affymetrix Inc. (U.S.) PerkinElmer Inc. (U.S.) Starkey Hearing Technologies (U.S.) and Smith & Nephew plc (U.K.).
