Global Kidney Preservation Market Size Was valued at USD 64.2 Mn in 2024 and is predicted to reach USD 138.5 Mn by 2034 at a 8.2% CAGR during the forecast period for 2025-2034.
Kidney preservation is the process of keeping a kidney viable after it has been removed from a donor but before it is transplanted into a recipient. This technique is necessary because if blood flow is disrupted, the kidney is susceptible to damage from a lack of oxygen and nutrients, which could lead to cell death and issues connected to transplantation. The primary factors driving the global kidney preservation market are the increasing prevalence of kidney-related illnesses, population ageing, lifestyle changes, and heavy alcohol and tobacco use.
The growing demand for kidney transplants directly fuels the need for kidney preservation techniques as the prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) rises, particularly due to an ageing global population and increasing rates of diabetes and hypertension. Additionally, advancements in methods for transporting and preserving organs, such as normothermic perfusion, hypothermic perfusion, and sub-normothermic procedures, have improved transportation and saved the lives of many.
However, the expansion of the kidney preservation market is anticipated to be hindered by factors such as limited donor numbers, high demand, compatibility issues between kidney donors and patients, and a shortage of qualified experts, particularly in less developed regions. On the other hand, the market is expanding due to the continuous advancements in organ preservation methods. Static cold storage, which involved cooling kidneys with cold preservation solutions, was the norm for many years. The landscape is being altered by more advanced techniques, such as machine perfusion, which provide better results and make a greater variety of donor kidneys possible. The quality of preserved organs is enhanced by these advancements, which also increase the time available for compatibility matching and transportation. Therefore, it is expected that this will accelerate the growth of the kidney preservation market.
Some of the Major Key Players in the Kidney Preservation Market are :
The kidney preservation market is segmented based on technique, preservation solution, donor type, and end-user. Based on technique, the market is segmented into static cold storage, normothermic machine perfusion, hypothermic machine perfusion, and other. By preservation solution, the market is segmented into University of Wisconsin (UW), Institute Georges Lopez (IGL-1) Solution, Histidin-Tryptophan-Ketoglutarate (HTK) Solution, Hypertonic Citrate Adenine (HC-A) Solution, Celsior Solution, and Others. By donor type, the market is segmented into standard criteria donor (SCD), donation after circulatory death (DCD), expanded criteria donor (ECD), living donor, and donation after brain death (DBD). By end-user, the market is segmented into organ procurement organizations (OPOs), transplant centers / hospitals, and others.
The normothermic machine perfusion segment is expected to hold a major global market share in 2024. With NMP, the kidney is infused with an oxygenated solution at body temperature, maintaining metabolic activity and even helping to repair some ischemia-reperfusion damage. Better results and lower rates of delayed graft function are among the many benefits of this procedure, which includes a real-time evaluation of organ viability prior to transplantation. NMP keeps the kidney healthy in the donor box for longer, giving transplant teams more time to make sure the kidney is in the best possible condition and selecting the recipient who is the greatest fit, according to a UW Health article.
Since live donor kidney transplants are becoming more and more popular as a treatment for end-stage renal disease (ESRD), the living donors segment made up the largest portion of revenue. Better graft survival rates and shorter waiting periods are two benefits of living donor kidney transplants that have helped fuel their rising popularity. Additionally, kidney transplants from living donors are now a safer and more efficient option due to improvements in immunosuppressive treatments and surgical methods. The need for living donor kidney transplants has increased due to the lack of available deceased donor kidneys and the rising demand for kidney transplants.
The North American kidney preservation market is expected to register the highest market share in revenue in the near future. The region has a strong position due to the availability of modern healthcare infrastructure, high awareness of organ donation, and a huge burden of chronic renal disease. These reasons are the main drivers of this large market share. The United States and Canada, in particular, have a strong network of transplant centres and established organ transplantation programs.
The market is supported by ongoing R&D efforts as well as the use of cutting-edge preservation methods, including machine perfusion. In addition, Asia Pacific is projected to grow rapidly in the global Kidney Preservation market, driven by an increase in the use of improved preservation methods, growing transplantation programs, and an increase in the incidence of end-stage renal disease (ESRD). In an effort to increase organ donation and transplantation rates, nations in the region are investing in updating transplant centres and training initiatives. Additionally, it is anticipated that the market will continue to rise during the forecast period due to the continuous expenditures and legislative initiatives aimed at improving transplantation results and addressing the rising prevalence of renal illnesses.
