Medical Tubing Market, By Material (Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), Thermoplastics Elastomer

Medical tubes are usually a small plastic tube inserted into the body through the mouth, nose or through any cut in the skin. These tubes are used to deliver oxygen, anesthesia, drugs or any other fluid into the patients’ body. Owing to the increasing number of minimally invasive surgeries and usage of medical devices that requires medical tubing. Hence, the manufacturers are focusing on the advancement of tubing functionality such as the number of lumens, deflection capability, and steerability.

The structure of the tube becomes more complex with decrease in size of the tube. Therefore, to satisfy the demand for medical tubing in various applications, the medical tubes are available in a variety of shapes and sizes. The manufacturers are also focusing on advancement of the materials that are used for the preparation of medical tubing, as it varies with application and chemical nature of the drug. The materials used for the preparation of medical tubes include polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), polycarbonate (PC), bioabsorbable polymers, polyester, thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), and thermoplastic elastomers (TPE). Moreover, if the material used for medical tubing is incompatible, it can lead to number of problems such as chemical alteration of drugs and medicines. Also, incompatible tube materials might lead to the binding of chemical or drug to the wall of medical tube resulting in failure of drug delivery to the patient.

Furthermore, the features of medical tubing changes depending on the specific application of these tubes in the healthcare sector. Opacity is an important feature of the tubes that are used to handle fluid delivery, in order to track fluid movement and air bubbles in the system. Another important feature of medical tubing is sterility, as it is used for medical application. Non-sterile medical tube could lead to infection, as the medical tubes are inserted into the patient’s body.
