Automated suturing devices market to grow by $245m by 2029

It is driven by a rise in surgical procedures and advancements in technology.

The global automated suturing devices market is expected to increase by $244.8m from 2025 to 2029, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.4%, according to Technavio.

The growth is driven by a rise in surgical procedures and advancements in technology. However, the high cost of these devices remains a challenge.

Automated suturing devices are gaining traction in the healthcare sector due to their ability to improve patient throughput, reduce surgical time, and increase cost efficiency, particularly in minimally invasive surgeries such as laparoscopy, arthroscopy, and endoscopic procedures. Key factors driving the market include innovations in robotics and infection-resistant technologies, and their application in treating cardiovascular, diabetic, and orthopedic conditions.

Increased hospital admissions due to aging populations and chronic diseases are also fueling demand for these devices. Infection control, especially in dental surgeries, and faster recovery times are key benefits pushing the adoption of automated suturing. However, reimbursement policies and high device costs, particularly for reusable models, limit their widespread use, especially in developing countries where reimbursement is not available.

Despite the growth, the high cost of devices and limited reimbursement options in regions like India, China, and Africa are major barriers.

Reusable devices tend to be more expensive than disposable ones, and this price difference affects market adoption. Manufacturers must address these challenges by finding cost-effective solutions to expand market reach.
