Introduction
Straits Research released its highly anticipated report, “Global Cannula Market Size & Outlook, 2026-2034”. According to the study, the global market size is valued at USD 204.22 million in 2025 and is anticipated to grow to USD 388.52 million by 2034, growing at a CAGR of 7.45% from 2026-2034.
Market Dynamics
The market growth is primarily attributed to the increasing demand for oxygen therapy, the rising number of surgical procedures, the preference for disposable cannulas to reduce infections, and technological advancements in cannula design for better patient safety and comfort. In addition, the increasing number of chronic respiratory disease patients is driving the demand for nasal cannulas. For example, in June 2025, as per the data reported by the World Health Organization, more than 80 million people are affected by chronic respiratory diseases worldwide. Such a factor underscores the critical need for effective and accessible respiratory solutions, which further drives the demand for nasal cannulas. Moreover, innovations in cannula design are creating market opportunities by improving treatment outcomes. For example, in April 2024, as per the data reported in National Library of Medicine, researchers at Cornell University, U.S. developed a cannula that can automatically adjust its insulin dosage based on the blood glucose levels, without the electrical components. Such innovations create opportunities by improving treatment outcomes and by increasing demand for safer and more efficient cannulas.
