Surgical instrument tracking system is a blend of latest scanning technology and application software for inventory management. Surgical instrument tracking solution offers the most advanced technology that assists healthcare organisation in improving the efficiency, quality and safety of their surgical equipment and allows the user in full control of a surgical inventory. Besides, these systems also aids in smart alerts when assets require any kind of maintenance and removes unnecessary costly attention based upon the use. For example, RFID surgical instrument tracking system enables hospitals to have a speedier, comprehensive accounting of materials before and after surgery.

Surgical Instrument Tracking Systems Market Outlook

The growth of surgical instrument tracking system market is mainly driven by the necessity for better inventory and asset management practices, the need to meet FDA Unique Device Identification mandates,  rising incidence of retained surgical instruments in the human body after surgery and instrument misplacement and the growth of the surgical instruments market. As indicated by National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), the fatality rate of retained surgical objects is around 2.0%. Therefore, the need for advanced technologies such as 2D barcodes and RFID to track the retained instruments while the patient is still in the operation theatre is increasing. 

Besides, High adoption of instrument tracking products by hospitals and technological advancements and efforts from governments to implement adoption of these devices are expected to further fuel the market over the estimated timeframe.


COVID 19 Pandemic impact on Surgical Instrument Tracking Systems Market Outlook

Health care systems worldwide have been affected by the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus emergence since December 2019. The impact of COVID-19 on surgical practice is widespread, ranging from workforce and staffing issues, procedural prioritisation, viral transmission risk intraoperatively, changes to perioperative practice and ways of working alongside the impact on surgical education and training. The COVID-19 pandemic caused a steep decrease in elective surgery scheduling, to the extent of complete cancellation without future planning of safe development. The decline in number of surgeries being conducted, the surgical instrument tracking system market is expected to decline in market growth.
