Market Overview

The France general surgical devices market refers to the medical technology industry that includes all instruments and equipment used for a wide range of surgical procedures in France. It encompasses both open and minimally invasive instruments, such as handheld tools, electrosurgical devices, wound closure supplies, and trocars, and is used in various surgical applications like gynecology, cardiology, and orthopedics. The growth of France general surgical devices market is fueled by several key factors. Due to an aging population in France, there is a need for more surgical procedures, particularly those related to orthopedics, cardiology, and gynecology. In addition, technological improvements in minimally invasive surgical techniques include laparoscopy, robotic-assisted systems, enhanced imaging, and artificial intelligence (AI). Robotic systems provide surgeons with greater precision and control.  are resulting in shorter hospital stays, faster recovery times, and ultimately, a greater number of procedures performed. Furthermore, the rising prevalence of chronic diseases, such as diabetes and obesity, is contributing to the demand for general surgical interventions.

The France general surgical devices market growth is expected to be bolstered by the growing geriatric population, which is more prone to chronic diseases and requires surgical treatment. As per the United Nations Population Fund's World Population Dashboard Statistics 2021, approximately 21.1% of people in France are 65 or older. The forecast period is expected to see an increase in the need for surgeries and treatment devices due to the prevalence of chronic diseases among the elderly.

According to the France 2030 strategy, the France government is heavily investing in the development of innovative medical devices, including surgical robots and advanced implants. Through initiatives such as the "grand challenges" and funding programs, each supported with USD 46 million, and targeted funding agreements like the USD 17 million deal with eCential Robotics, France aims to boost R&D, strengthen domestic manufacturing, and position itself as a global leader in advanced surgical technologies. Thus, it propels market growth.
