For the purpose of this study, global needle-free IV connectors market is studied by their mechanism in following areas:

• Positive Fluid Displacement Connectors
• Negative Fluid Displacement Connectors
• Neutral Fluid Displacement Connectors

Needle-free IV connectors are categorized based on their internal mechanism that controls the flow of fluid. The flow of fluid is controlled by the valves within the systems. Negative fluid displacement connectors allow the flow of blood inside the catheter lumen by the movement of the valve mechanism. Blood is allowed to remain in the catheter lumen with partial and complete occlusion. Hence, these devices require flushing techniques to control blood reflux. On the other hand, positive fluid displacement connectors have a small reservoir for holding a small amount of blood. Upon disconnection, fluid is pushed out of the lumen to control blood reflux that has occurred. However, neutral fluid displacement connectors prevent blood reflux upon connection and disconnection. A specialized neutral displacement connector has cupped silicone membrane with a slit that acts as a valve. The valve automatically closes once the fluid container becomes empty, this prevents the blood reflux. In terms of market size, positive fluid displacement catheters dominated the market in the year 2016 due to the low cost of the products. The segment is projected to dominate the market during the forecast period. However, the risk of bloodstream infections acts as a restraint to the global needle-free IV connectors market.

For the purpose of this study, global needle-free IV connectors market is studied by their design in following areas:

• Simple Connectors
• Complex Connectors

Needle-free IV connectors are available in the market with two designs i.e. simple and complex connectors. Simple connectors do not have any internal mechanism and include devices with an external split septum. Simple connectors do not have any internal parts, allowing the fluid to flow straight through the device lumen. However, complex connectors have internal parts that control the flow of fluid within the system. Internal parts include a mechanical valve that controls the flow of fluid. Due to the simplicity of design, the simple connectors are priced less compared to the complex connectors. In terms of market value, the complex connectors segment dominated the global needle-free connectors market in the year 2016 due to the high cost and extensive adoption of the connectors in the aspiration and infusion procedures.

Based on geographical regions, the global needle-free IV connectors market is segmented into North America, Latin America, Asia Pacific, Europe, and Middle East and Africa.

According to the analysis, North America lead the global needle-free IV connectors market in the year 2016 and is expected to retain its dominance during the forecast period. Factors contributing to its dominance in the market include improved healthcare infrastructure with increased demand for sterilized needles, high awareness among healthcare practitioners, adoption of the connectors, and rapid growth in aging population. Asia Pacific is projected to experience fastest market growth during the forecast years. Increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, rising hospitals and healthcare facilities, improved healthcare services, are some of the factors driving the market in Asia Pacific.
