Furthermore, rising adoption of robotic technologies for the expansion of product applications and integration of latest technologies in ablation devices to offer enhanced patient safety as well as procedural efficiency will drive the market size.
 

For instance, in June 2020, Boston Scientific Corporation launched the DIRECTSENSE technology to monitor radiofrequency energy delivery effects during cardiac ablation procedures. This radiofrequency ablation device emits radio waves leading to heating of a small portion of nervous tissue for sending signals to minimize the pain. Such advancements are expected to augment the adoption of ablation devices.
 

The COVID 19 pandemic has negatively impacted ablation devices market growth in 2020, however, the industry gained momentum in 2021 with declining number of COVID-19 cases. Adoption of standard operating protocols, preventive measures and reduced mortality rate associated with COVID-19 led to continuation of other operational procedures in healthcare facilities with minimized risk of infection. Thus, with decrease in the number of COVID-19 cases in some regions during the financial year 2021, the market experienced gradual growth in revenue.
 

Ablation devices are medical instruments used in minimally invasive procedures to remove or excise aberrant body tissues for therapeutic purposes. These systems utilize heat that can be generated by radio frequency, energy, extreme cold or a laser to cause small burns.
 

Increasing patient preference for minimally invasive procedures will impel the market forecasts

Patient preference for minimally invasive procedures over open surgeries is one of the prominent factors contributing to the overall market share. Significant increase in popularity and acceptance of minimally invasive treatments due to shorter hospital stay, faster recovery and less pain as compared to the traditional surgeries have been observed in recent years.
 

Furthermore, growing prevalence of atrial fibrillation among population will positively impact the number of cardiac ablation procedures. Minimally invasive ablation procedure for atrial fibrillation offers maximum efficacy, low risk and more convenience to the patients. Thus, increasing benefits of less invasive treatment procedures with adoption of ablation devices will drive the ablation devices market during the forecast period.
