In 2023, the number of coronary artery bypass graft surgeries performed in Germany stood at approximately 42,000. The forecast for the years 2024 to 2028 indicates a continuous decline in these procedures, with expected figures around 41.92 thousand in 2024 and gradually decreasing to 37.64 thousand by 2028. The projected year-on-year declines suggest a clear downward trend. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period highlights an average yearly decline.
Future trends to watch for include advancements in minimally invasive heart procedures, increasing adoption of alternative treatments such as percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI), and potential impacts of lifestyle changes and improvements in preventive healthcare contributing to reduced demand for coronary artery bypass grafting.
