The import of pacemakers to Italy is forecasted to decrease steadily from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 28.79 thousand kilograms in 2024, the volume declines to 25.52 thousand kilograms in 2028, showing a year-on-year reduction. The cumulative annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period suggests a consistent downturn in import volume. For context, in 2023, the imports stood slightly higher, indicating a continuous downward trend.
Future trends to watch for:
- Potential advancements in medical technology that may reduce the demand for traditional pacemakers.
- Changes in local manufacturing capabilities within Italy impacting import needs.
- Shifts in healthcare policies affecting procurement and usage of imported medical devices.
