According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled "Inhalation Anesthesia Market Report by Product (Desflurane, Sevoflurane, Isoflurane, and Others), Application (Induction, Maintenance), End User (Hospitals, Ambulatory Surgical Centers, and Others), and Region 2025-2033," the global inhalation anesthesia market size reached USD 1.7 Billion in 2024. Inhalation anesthesia refers to a type of anesthetic that is administered in the lungs through an inhalation procedure. It can induce and maintain general anesthesia and sedation, due to which it is typically used during surgical procedures, especially when it is difficult to identify an intravenous route. Inhalation anesthesia includes enflurane, sevoflurane, desflurane, isoflurane, and volatile liquids, such as halothane, as standard drugs. These agents can cause a decrease in arterial blood pressure, respiratory depression, and an increase in cerebral blood flow, resulting in controlled pain and regulated breathing, blood pressure levels, blood flow, and heart rate and rhythm. As compared to traditionally used intravenous variants, inhalation anesthesia does not accumulate in the body and allows precise control over the sedative state of the patient at cost-effective rates. As a resuIt, inhalation anesthesia is extensively used in surgical centers and ambulatory and hospital settings by healthcare practitioners to numb the sensation in specific body parts and eliminate severe pain during surgical procedures.
Global Inhalation Anesthesia Market Trends:
The increasing prevalence of chronic ailments, such as cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, neurological, respiratory, and degenerative disorders, and the rising instances of road accidents across the globe are primarily driving the market growth. In line with this, the shifting inclination towards minimally invasive (MI) treatments and the ongoing number of surgical procedures, such as laparoscopic, cosmetic surgery, and microsurgery, are acting as another growth-inducing factor. Additionally, the increasing instances of sports-related injuries and escalating frequencies of orthopedic operations, such as ligament and other soft tissue repair procedures, are further intensifying product usage in the healthcare sector. Moreover, the extensive use of sevoflurane and other ether-based inhalation anesthetic agents with low pungency and non-irritant odor in ambulatory healthcare centers for patients dealing with asthma or sensitive air passages is impelling the market growth. Furthermore, the recent development of anesthesia recycling systems for isolating anesthetic compounds from hospital vents and operating rooms is favoring the market growth. Apart from this, the introduction of novel product variants with enhanced compatibility and minimal side effects to promote the effective treatment of patients sensitive to anesthetic agents is positively impacting the market growth. Looking forward, the market value is projected to reach USD 2.2 Billion by 2033, expanding at a CAGR of 2.75% during 2025-2033.
