Executive Summary and South and Central America Dialysis Equipment Market Analysis:

The dialysis equipment market in South and Central America is experiencing significant growth driven by growing burden of kidney disease. The market is showing steady growth driven by rising prevalence of CKD and ESRD—driven by aging populations, diabetes, and hypertension—has significantly increased demand for dialysis. Brazil and Argentina are adding more healthcare facilities, explicitly due to governments expanding dialysis clinics, home treatment options, and coverage changes that will improve accessibility. In South America, smaller dialysis facilities and investments will benefit patients. Devices will continue to make treatments easier to manage, such as portable dialysis devices, and more efficient and automatically-managing peritoneal dialysis options in-hospital and for home use.

Interestingly, a multinational study commissioned by the ISN-GKHA found that South America had the highest percent (57%) of countries that indicated regions in which it was clear that CKD was disproportionately more affecting younger people and communities more remote from larger cities. Meanwhile, collaborations between medical technology companies and healthcare providers have been accelerating growth in dialysis, such as the use of wearable dialysis systems or better water purification technologies. The limited availability of organ transplants in the area reinforces the reliance on dialysis solutions and has compelled upgrades to in-clinic dialysis facilities and new treatment modalities. Increased access to government funding, support policies and procedures related to insurance, and policies related to human rights to healthcare have also led to modest growth within the market and expanded access to dialysis services for more people, all of which indicates that South and Central America will continue to play a larger role in the global dialysis environment.

South and Central America Dialysis Equipment Market Outlook

The South and Central America dialysis equipment market is segmented into Brazil, Argentina, Peru, Chile, and Colombia. The South and Central American dialysis equipment market is experiencing significant growth in 2024, driven by the increasing prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) across the region. This is mainly due to increasing avenues to address the issues of diabetic related issues, hypertension, and the increased rates and care needs of the aging population. Brazil has made tremendous ground to make some form of dialysis accessible through its national public access health care structure; however, there are still challenges with lack of geographic accessibility or government funding for government-sponsored care delivery.

Through the investment by the Brazilian government in healthcare amenities there is improved access to dialysis services. All of these factors, in addition to an increased focus on early detection of renal diseases, will continue to push the dialysis equipment markets in Brazil.

According to the Brazilian Dialysis Survey 2023 published in January 2025 by the Brazilian Society of Nephrology, there were about 157,357 patients in Brazil receiving chronic dialysis across Brazil as of July 1, 2023, showing a prevalence of 771 patients per million population. More importantly, over 51,000 new patients commenced dialysis in 2023, demonstrating an ongoing large need for dialysis equipment, consumables, and associated services anywhere that patients are treated for kidney disease in Brazil has a considerable degree of variability regarding the reasons that various patients develop kidney disease.

The dialysis equipment in Argentina is within the context of an aged population - older than many of its regional peers, with over 12% aged 65 and older in 2023, contributing to a more common rate of various chronic diseases including kidney' As the most common causes; as well as many other conditions have a considerable contribution to ESRD burden. These include a substantial number of cases attributed to glomerulonephritis, polycystic kidney disease in adults, obstructive uropathy, and, particularly in the paediatric population, hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), identified in a January 2025 publication as a leading cause of paediatric ESRD in the country.
