New York, New York, Sept. 19, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Persistence Market Research (http://www.persistencemarketresearch.com/) Released new Press Release - Globally, the obesity surgery devices market is witnessing significant growth due to increasing obesity epidemic and increasing sedentary lifestyle and junk food habits. Increasing prevalence of obesity among children and adults is posing a threat in both developed and developing nations. Excess body weight directly contributes to increasing risk of stroke, heart diseases, type-2 diabetes and some forms of cancer. Obesity surgery is a broadly available treatment for persons with severe and complex obesity. However, inadequate insurance coverage for the procedure and excessive cost of surgery often makes it unaffordable. In addition, selective nature of obesity surgery, due to its complications, restricts growth of obesity surgery devices market. The global obesity surgery device market is estimated at USD 1,432.4 million in 2014. It is likely to grow at a CAGR of 9.6% from 2014 to 2020 to reach USD 2,489.5 million in 2020.
