Global Renal Dialysis Equipment Pipeline Analysis, Opportunity

Assessment and Market Forecasts to 2016

The Global Renal Dialysis Equipment Market Expected To Grow by 7% Over the Next
Seven Years
In 2009, the global renal dialysis equipment market was valued at $5,487m and is
forecast to grow at a Compounded Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 7% to reach $8,936m
in 2016. The Dialysis accessories (worth $2,847m), Hemodialysis (HD) machines (worth
$804m) and Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT) machines (worth $77m)
combined make up the HD market, which was worth $3,730m in 2009. The HD market
was the largest segment with 68% of share, and the remaining 32% was contributed by
the Peritoneal Dialysis (PD) solutions segment (worth $1,757m). The market is expected
to be driven through 2009-2016 by the increasing prevalence of diabetes and
hypertension, a rapidly aging population and a shortage of kidney donors for transplant.
Moreover, strong pipeline products with better operational efficiency, safety and
effectiveness are expected to drive market growth.

The Global Renal Dialysis Equipment Market to be Driven by High Prevalence of

Diabetes and Hypertension and Aging Population
Diabetes and hypertension both are well established risk factors for renal failure. More
than 70% of the renal failure cases in the US and 35% of the renal failure cases in Europe
occur due to pre-existing diabetes and/or hypertension. According to International
Diabetes Federation (IDF), nearly 285 million people are suffering from Diabetes
Mellitus (DM) in the world in 2010, which is forecast to grow to reach nearly 439 million
in 2030. In developing countries such as India and China, the prevalence of diabetes
varies from 14% to 20%. It has been estimated by the World Health Organization
(WHO), that the prevalence of diabetes in developing countries will be 228 million in
2030, which is more than 50% of total estimated prevalence. The rapidly aging
population is another factor contributing to the high prevalence of renal failure,
especially in the developed parts of the world. According to the United Nations (UN),
the aging population contributes to 21% of the total population in developed countries,
against the world average of 11%. Developing and the least developed countries are
below the world average at 8% and 5% respectively.

Fresenius Medical Care, Baxter International, Gambro and B. Braun Dominate

the Global Renal Dialysis Equipment Market
The global renal dialysis equipment market is dominated by a few big multinational
companies with nearly 75% of total market share. The remaining 25% of the market is
comprised of small and local players. Fresenius Medical Care AG & Co. KGaA is the
market leader with a 30% share. The company offers various pieces of dialysis
equipment as well as dialysis services at its dialysis clinic chain. Baxter International is
the second largest market player with a 19% share. Baxter mainly operates in the
peritoneal dialysis (PD) solutions market. Gambro AG is the third largest company with
an 18% share, followed by B. Braun Melsungen AG which has a 9% share. Some other
companies operating in the market are Asahi Kasei Corporation, Nipro Corporation and
Sorin Group.

More Efficient, Safer and Comfortable Dialysis Pipeline Devices Are Expected to
Drive the Market
The global renal dialysis equipment market has some products in the pipeline targeting
clinical unmet needs especially for physicians who perform dialysis. Updated versions of
dialysis machines with improved functionality, user friendly software, and improved
accessories in terms of safety and durability are expected to increase operational
efficiencies. However, there is no product in the pipeline which can significantly impact
dialysis treatment in terms of Quality of Life (QoL), morbidity or mortality.

Gambro AB’s AK 200 S is an online hemodiafiltration machine for HD, hemodiafiltration

and hemofiltration. It is an automated machine and offers the optimum convective
volume of fluid during the treatment. HemoAccess Valve System from CreatiVasc is a
system used to combat complications associated with Arteriovenous (AV) grafts during
dialysis. BetaSorb which is being developed by MedaSorb, is a complementary machine
to be used to remove middle molecular weight toxins which are not cleared by HD.
