This significantly reduces the side effects associated with the drugs. The global intrathecal pumps market was valued at USD 199.8 million in 2013, and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.1% to reach an estimated value of 264.8 million by 2020.

The global intrathecal pumps market is witnessing healthy growth amidst the frequent product recalls. Driving factor for the market growth is the device’s ability to reduce debilitating pain and drug administration in low doses. This benefits patients with lesser side effects and more rapid therapeutic effects compared to other forms of medication. Chronic pain affecting approximately 20% to 30% of the U.S. population is the largest driver for intrathecal pumps. The prevalence of chronic pain is also severe in other parts of the world. In 2013, the market for these pumps was largely driven by demand for treating chronic pain and this application alone contributed to more than two-third of the total market revenue. The pain management application is expected to maintain its top position during the forecast period from 2014 to 2020 due to large untapped patient base and wider side effects of existing opioid analgesics administered via routes other than intrathecal.
