The US Surgical Instrument Tracking Market is expected to grow from USD 74.48 Million in 2024 to USD 226.61 Million by 2034, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.78% between 2025 and 2034. This growth is driven by increasing surgical volumes, the rising prevalence of chronic diseases, and the need for enhanced patient safety and operational efficiency in healthcare facilities. Key factors contributing to market growth include patient safety concerns, as tracking systems help reduce the risk of retained surgical instruments (RSIs), prevent infections, and improve surgical outcomes. These systems also streamline workflows, optimize inventory management, and reduce time spent searching for instruments. The U.S. FDA’s Unique Device Identification (UDI) regulations further drive the adoption of robust tracking systems. Additionally, the rise in surgical procedures—due to an aging population, sports injuries, and chronic ailments—necessitates better instrument management, leading to cost savings through reduced delays, instrument losses, and optimized procurement. Innovations in barcode and RFID technologies enhance tracking precision and efficiency. The market is segmented by technology (barcodes, RFID), application (hardware, software, services), end-use (hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers), and region. Key market players include Vizinex (HID Global Corporation), Fortive Corporation, Becton Dickinson and Company (BD), Steris, Integra LifeSciences Corporation, Censis, Surlogs, Stryker, Medtronic, B. Braun SE, Olympus Corporation, Case Medical, Scanlan International, Inc., and Securitas Healthcare LLC. The report includes a SWOT analysis: strengths include technological innovation and regulatory compliance; weaknesses involve integration complexity and system vulnerabilities; opportunities lie in adopting AI and machine learning, customizing systems for specialties like cardiology and orthopedics, and aligning with value-based care models; threats include cyberattacks and increasing price competition. Recent developments include Mobile Aspects launching SurgiCart, an RFID-enabled mobile cart, HID Global acquiring GuardRFID, and BD introducing a robotic tracking system for laboratory specimen processing. The report provides detailed market size, growth forecasts, competitive landscape, and regional analysis, with comprehensive coverage of market dynamics, trends, and strategic insights.
