COVID-19 IMPACT or RUSSIA-UKRAINE WAR IMPACT or ISRAEL-HAMAS WAR IMPACT

"Depth Electrodes Industry Had a Positive Effect Due to Massive Surge in Video Consumption during COVID-19 Pandemic"

The Global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the market experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden market growth reflected by the rise in CAGR is attributable to market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

The covid19 pandemic affected the logistics of raw material and components required for the fabrication of depth electrodes in the supply chains across the world. These delays affected the availability of these devices in the manufacturing and logistics levels where the manufacturing lead time and cost would be elongated.

LATEST TRENDS

"Integration with Imaging Techniques to Propel Market Growth"

Compatibility with imaging methods is another major factor in the further expansion of the market for depth electrodes, which improves both the accuracy and efficiency of neurosurgical operations. MRI, CT scans and depth electrode placement are well coordinated allowing the neurosurgeons to accurately localize parts of the brain that are associated with neurological disorders, particularly epilepsy. This has a symbiotic effect in that visualization of specific structures in the brain is enhanced, the surgeons can determine where to insert electrodes in relation to exclusion zones in the brain that controls movement or speech.

DEPTH ELECTRODES MARKET SEGMENTATION

By Type

Based on type the global market can be categorized into Contact Point below 8, Contact Point 8-12 and Contact Point above 12.

• Contact Point below 8- A majority of the depth electrodes have contact points less than eight in number. They are employed where there is an interest in monitoring activity at local level within different regions of the brain.

• Contact Point 8-12-This category consists of depth electrodes with eight to Twelve Contact points. It offers more monitoring opportunities than the few contact point models offer to the contracting parties.

• Contact Point above 12- These depth electrodes include twelve contact points, which makes it the most developed choice compared to other types. They are built for invasive and high resolution observation of activity in the human brain.

By Application

Based on application the global market can be categorized into Pre-surgical Diagnosis and Scientific Research.

• Pre-surgical Diagnosis- The depth electrodes are placed in the deep regions of the brain for the purpose of observing electrical activity of the particular area. That assists in establishing the exact source of seizures, which helps plan surgeries.

• Scientific Research- Depth electrodes help the researchers study the functions of the brain by measuring brain activity in real-time. This research aids in understanding the causes and effects of several neurological disorders, cognitive functions, and sensory modalities, of normal and pathological function of the brain.

Driving Factors

"Rising Prevalence of Neurological Disorders to Drive Market Advancement"

One of the key driving factors in the Depth Electrodes Market growth is the Rising Prevalence of Neurological Disorders. A key opportunity for the depth electrodes is the growth of neurological diseases like epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease. Neurological diseases are on the rise concerning incidence, prevalence and awareness, and advancement in diagnostic techniques. Epilepsy, particularly, is on record as having an impact on a staggering number of individuals globally and among the affected population, many experience drug-resistant epilepsy.

"Advancements in Medical Technology to Expand the Market"

Technological enhancements are another main driver for the growth of the Depth Electrodes Market as these Technologies are some of the ways that have been applied to make diagnosis of these neurological disorders more accurate, safer and efficient. Current depth electrodes have been developed and designed into smaller sizes for flexibility and enhanced resolution and can target and record signals more specifically from particular areas in the brain while minimizing harm to other parts of the brain due to invasion. These innovations also improve the specificity of identification of the seizures origin and brain mapping that makes them crucial in intricate neurosurgical interventions such as epilepsy surgery.

Restraining Factor

"High Cost of Procedures and Devices to potentially impede Market Growth"

The same has few restraints that include the high cost of procedures as well as devices when it comes to consuming the depth electrodes. Depth electrode systems are costly, and so is the neurosurgery necessary to entrench these systems within the brain. Such procedures entail complex and sophisticated neurosurgical approaches, sophisticated instruments, and follow-up care — all of which raise the cost. Moreover, the devices themselves, which should be very accurate and sturdy for usage in cellular base stations, are expensive to produce.

Opportunity

"Growing Prevalence of Neurological Disorders To Create Opportunity for the Product in the Market"

Expansion of neurological disorders including epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, and other brain disorders is increasing, and holds the primary responsibility for shaping opportunities in the Depth Electrodes Market. With the rapidly increasing prevalence of these disorders in the global population, especially with growing age and improved understanding of neurological disease, the need for more sophisticated methods for their diagnosis and treatment is evident. Depth electrodes are also important for providing the clinicians with reliable data about the activity of the patient’s brain in cases when other, less invasive, methods including surface EEG are insufficient.

Challenge

"Regulatory and Ethical Challenges Could Be a Potential Challenge for Consumers"

Legal and ethical concerns constitute a major part of the challenges that affect the development of the Depth Electrodes Market. Being a kind of an invasive medical device that is utilized in neurosurgery, the depth electrodes have to meet a set of stringent standards. They take time to be granted and require clinical trials, documentation, and thorough evaluations at very many times. This in turn restricts the speed of product introduction by companies and in turns slows down growth of the market.
