"The Global Intrauterine Pressure Catheters Market 2021-2031 (USD Billion)")
The global intrauterine pressure catheters market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6% during the forecast period. Increase in pregnancy procedures, favorable initiatives for maternal and fetal care, along with benefits offered by intrauterine pressure catheters are factors driving the growth of the market.
Intrauterine pressure catheters (IUPCs) are used to monitor the frequency, length, and severity of uterine contractions during labor. In cases of maternal obesity and/or possible labor dystocias, it has been proposed that IUPCs are more effective than external tocodynamometry in detecting the intensity and frequency of uterine contractions. This leads to rapid adoption of intrauterine pressure catheters during complicated labor. During labor, physicians monitor the strength of contractions by measuring the pressure inside the uterus. High contractile strength indicates that the uterine pressure is strong enough to push the fetus out of the birth canal. On the other hand, low contractile strength indicates that the fetus may not be pushed out of the birth canal and that medical assistance is needed.
The pressure caused by a contraction influences the fetus' heart rate, which is why doctors monitor intrauterine pressure. During labor, the fetus's heart rhythm is a vital measure of fetal health. Thus, there is growing adoption of intrauterine pressure catheters for fetal monitoring which is expected to boost the growth of the market in the next few years.
The global intrauterine pressure catheters market has been segmented based on product, end-users, and region. Based on product, the global intrauterine pressure catheters market is categorized into fluid-filled catheters and transducer tip catheters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) :
The intrauterine pressure catheters market is growing at a CAGR of 8.5 % over the forecast period.
The Global intrauterine pressure catheters market is Segmented on the Product, End-users, Regions.
North America dominated the market for intrauterine pressure catheters market and accounted for the largest revenue share.
During the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, doctors studied uterine contractions in an effort to monitor the progression of labor. Physicians invented a micro balloon that could be inserted between the uterine membranes and the uterine wall to measure intrauterine pressure in the late 1900s. In the early twentieth century, physicians started inserting catheters through the amniotic space across the pregnant woman's abdomen and uterus. Both of these treatments, however, were considered experimental, were not routinely conducted, and were not widely documented until later in the twentieth century. In the mid-twentieth century, physicians invented an intrauterine pressure catheter that could be inserted transcervically or via the cervix. Catheters inserted into the cervix became standard practice in high-risk births requiring surveillance by the late 1960s. Thus, internal fetal monitoring is a significant development in the field of obstetrics because it enabled health care providers to achieve more precise uterine pressure measurements and respond to fetal distress more quickly which further leads to high demand for intrauterine pressure catheters. Furthermore, increased focus on R&D for the development of novel products by key industry players will have a positive impact on industry growth.
The global intrauterine pressure catheters market has been segmented based on product, end-users, and region. Based on product, the global intrauterine pressure catheters market is categorized into fluid-filled catheters and transducer tip catheters. Transducer tip intrauterine pressure catheters segment held substantial share of the global market in 2020 owing to the precision of these catheters in measuring intrauterine pressure in complicated labor. Wide adoption of these catheters in hospitals and gynecological centers along with launch of innovative products by key industry players are major factors anticipated to drive the segment growth.
On the basis of end-users, the global intrauterine pressure catheters market is categorized into hospitals, obstetrics & gynecology clinics, and ambulatory surgical centers.
