    The Challenge

    • The client had developed two novel microcatheter concepts that offer advantages of both Large lumen (2.7F/2.8F Outer Diameter) and Small lumen (2.4F Outer Diameter) microcatheters.
    • Through this research, the client wanted to evaluate stakeholder reaction to the novel microcatheter concepts.

    Our Approach

    • Quantitative research : Online surveys with Interventional Radiologists in the US, Germany, France, UK and China, who perform at least 5 peripheral embolization procedures (per month) using a microcatheter.
    The Objectives

    The Objectives

    • To understand current challenges & future expectations of microcatheters.
    • To identify key decision factors and customer preferences when purchasing a microcatheter.
    • To evaluate stakeholders’ perception of the new microcatheter concepts and identify the most preferred concept.
    • To determine the price stakeholders are willing to pay.
    Project Outcomes

    Solution/Outcome

    • We calculated the procedure numbers and identified the types of procedures performed and techniques used.
    • We identified the challenges currently faced by IRs with large lumen and small lumen microcatheters.
    • With the help of max-diff exercise, we identified the top important factors when purchasing a microcatheter.
    • We also evaluated stakeholders’ reaction on and preference between two new microcatheters.
    • We identified the price they are willing to pay for the concepts
    • We also estimated the potential market share for the two concepts, and the source for this market share (from competitors vs client’s portfolio).
