The global inhalation anaesthesia market size reached a value of more than USD 1.25 billion in 2023 driven by the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases and medical device manufacturers across the globe. The market is further estimated to grow at a CAGR of 9.40% in the forecast period of 2024-2032.
Inhalation anaesthesia is a clinical procedure used in medical practice to make patients unconscious or numb during surgery. In this method, anaesthetic agents are delivered as gases or volatile agents to the patient via a face mask, or an endotracheal tube placed in the respiratory tract. Some of these anaesthetic agents include nitrous oxide, sevoflurane, isoflurane, and desflurane. When administered in measured proportions, it provides the ideal level of anaesthesia and pain relief without compromising the body’s basic functions. The sedative agents are transported through the respiratory system, lungs, and circulatory system, affecting the patient’s brain and central nervous system. As the incidence rate of chronic diseases that may require surgeries rise, the demand for inhalational anesthesia is likely to increase in coming years.
Increasing Prevalence of Surgical Procedures Fuels Market Growth
The market for surgical procedures is growing due to the increasing application of inhalation anesthesia in from road accidents and emergencies. Global healthcare faces challenges due to the increasing incidence of diseases such as cancer, respiratory illnesses, and gastrointestinal issues. Chronic diseases like cancer, infectious diseases, and genetic disorders are also rising globally. The American Cancer Society reports that cancer contributes significantly to morbidity and mortality, with an estimated about 1,958,310, new cases and 609,820 cancer-related deaths in 2023. This, coupled with the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, drives market growth for inhalation anesthesia.
Increased Geriatric Population Promoting the Inhalation Anaesthesia Market
The global geriatric population is expected to drive the growth of inhalation anaesthesia due to their high susceptibility to degenerative and chronic diseases. Elderly patients, particularly those with cardiovascular, neurological, respiratory, or degenerative conditions, are more likely to require surgeries and therapeutics. The discomfort of injecting anaesthesia through intravenous routes for elderly patients is a significant factor, which will continue to influence the consistent demand for inhalation anaesthesia in the coming years.
Key Trends | Impact |
Improvement in Ambulatory Surgical Centers | Ambulatory surgical centers (ASCs) play an essential role in the healthcare system by providing flexible and effective outpatient surgeries. They offer low-cost therapies, shorter hospitalizations, and decreased susceptibilities to infections. One of the most preferred techniques by patients receiving treatment as ASC is inhalation anaesthesia due to its simplicity and rapid onset. This integration between ASCs and inhalation anaesthesia helps patients by giving comfortable treatments, and shorter recovery times that do not interfere with their daily activities. |
Role of End-Tidal (ET) Control Software in Advancing Anesthesia Delivery | Market players in inhalation anaesthesia are improving their offerings by incorporating new technologies such as end-tidal control software into their products. The Aisys CS2 Anaesthesia Delivery System is one major examples of more advanced system that uses the latest software to track anaesthesia gases during various surgeries and give patients ideal care. With this technology, surgeries are safer and more comfortable for the patients. This new system in anaesthesia is designed to improve the quality of patient care and set future trends in surgical operations. |
Technological Advancements | The advancement of innovative and efficient anaesthesia delivery systems like the Sedaconda has continued in recent years. These systems are developed particularly for intensive care and include features like tracking and control, which help healthcare practitioners to provide anaesthesia with better efficiency and safety. This trend shows a focus on improving patient care delivery as well as embracing environmental stewardship. |
AI and Machine Learning | Artificial intelligence and machine learning are increasingly being integrated in anaesthesia delivery systems to improve accuracy and patient safety. When applied to inhalation anaesthesia, AI and ML can detect and manage anaesthesia levels in real time, thus improving the efficacy, safety, and outcomes of the procedure. Closed-loop systems that control the administration of drugs based on the patient’s physiological condition are being used more often. This integration represents a progressive step in enhancing the efficacy and safety of provision. |
Market Breakup by Drug Type

Market Breakup by Region
Based on Drug Type Sevoflurane to Hold a Substantial Market Share
Based on drug type, the market is segmented into sevoflurane, desflurane, isoflurane, and halothane. Among these, the increasing use of sevoflurane, owing to several benefits including a pleasant odor, rapid induction, reduced postoperative nausea, and minimal cardiac toxicity are driving its market share. Patients with difficult airways or severe bronchospastic disease are increasingly using sevoflurane due to its reduced irritation to mucous membranes and faster recovery. The drug is also used in both inpatient and outpatient surgeries, and its excellent safety record makes it suitable for both adults and pediatric patients. The increasing approvals of sevoflurane by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) are expected to further stimulate the market development.
Market Breakup Based on Application Set to Witness Market Growth
The global inhalation anaesthesia market, based on applications is divided into inductive and maintenance. Maintenance anaesthesia is expected to dominate the market because it ensures patients remain unconscious during operations. Maintenance anaesthesia also involves administering anaesthetics in progressively regulated dosages, making it useful for long procedures. This constant demand drives companies to upgrade delivery systems for maintenance, focusing on patient safety and improving technologies for tracking anaesthesia depth and reducing complications.
