This study involved four major activities in estimating the current medical gas and equipment market size. Exhaustive secondary research was done to collect information on the market, peer market and parent market. The next step was to validate these findings, assumptions, and sizing with industry experts across the value chain through primary research. Both top-down and bottom-up approaches were employed to estimate the complete market size. After that, market breakdown and data triangulation were used to estimate the market size of segments and subsegments.
Secondary Research
The secondary research process involved the widespread use of secondary sources, directories, databases (such as Bloomberg Businessweek, Factiva, and D&B Hoovers), white papers, annual reports, company house documents, investor presentations, and SEC filings of companies. Secondary research was used to identify and collect information useful for the extensive, technical, market-oriented, and commercial study of the prefilled syringes market. It was also used to obtain important information about the key players and market classification and segmentation according to industry trends to the bottom-most level, and key developments related to market and technology perspectives. A database of the key industry leaders was also prepared using secondary research.
Primary Research
In the primary research process, various sources from both the supply and demand sides were interviewed to obtain qualitative and quantitative information for this report. The primary sources from the supply side include industry experts such as CEOs, vice presidents, marketing and sales directors, technology & innovation directors, and related key executives from various key companies and organizations operating in the medical gas and equipment market. The primary sources from the demand side included industry experts, purchase & sales managers, doctors, and personnel from research organizations. Primary research was conducted to validate the market segmentation, identify key players in the market, and gather insights on key industry trends and key market dynamics.
A breakdown of the primary respondents for the medical gas and equipment market is provided below:

Note 1: C-level primaries include CEOs, COOs, and CTOs.

The research methodology used to estimate the size of the market includes the following details.
The market sizing of the market was undertaken from the global side.
Country-level Analysis: The size of the medical gas and equipment was obtained from the annual presentations of leading players and secondary data available in the public domain. The share of products and services in the overall medical gas and equipment market was obtained from secondary data and validated by primary participants to arrive at the total medical gas and equipment market. Primary participants further validated the numbers.
Geographic market assessment (by region & country): The geographic assessment was done using the following approaches:
Approach 1: Geographic revenue contributions/splits of leading players in the market (wherever available) and respective growth trends
Approach 2: Geographic adoption trends for individual product segments by medical gas and equipment and growth prospects for each of the segments (assumptions and indicative estimates validated from primary interviews)
At each point, the assumptions and approaches were validated through industry experts contacted during primary research. Considering the limitations of data available from secondary research, revenue estimates for individual companies (for the overall medical gas and equipment and geographic market assessment) were ascertained based on a detailed analysis of their respective product offerings, geographic reach/strength (direct or through distributors or suppliers), and the shares of the leading players in a particular region or country.

Data Triangulation
After arriving at the overall market size—using the market size estimation processes explained above—the market was split into several segments and sub-segments. To complete the overall market engineering process and arrive at the exact statistics of each market segment and subsegment, data triangulation, and market breakdown procedures were employed, wherever applicable. The data was triangulated by studying various factors and trends from both the demand and supply sides.
