The U.S. patient temperature management market size was estimated at USD 1.39 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 2.66 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 7.55% from 2025 to 2033. The market is substantially growing due to increased surgical procedures.
This surge is attributed to several factors, including advancements in medical technology, an aging population, an increasing number of hypothermia cases, and an increasing prevalence of chronic diseases requiring surgical intervention. For instance, In January 2024, the Population Reference Bureau estimated that the number of Americans aged 65 and above would grow significantly, reaching 82 million by 2050, up from 58 million in 2022. In addition, the proportion of this age group in the total population is projected to rise from 17% to 23%. Overall, the rise in the number of surgical procedures, coupled with the growing emphasis on patient safety and outcomes, is fueling the market growth.
The rising incidence of cancer and the complexity of treatment protocols are key drivers of the patient temperature management industry. Patients undergoing chemotherapy or radiation often experience disrupted thermoregulation due to immune suppression or treatment side effects. In some cases, temperature modulation is used therapeutically. Hyperthermia, or thermotherapy, involves heating body tissues up to 113°F to destroy cancer cells while minimizing damage to healthy tissue. In May 2025, according to the National Cancer Institute, the U.S. is projected to witness around 2.04 million new cancer diagnoses and over 618,000 deaths. Breast, prostate, and lung cancers are expected to remain the most prevalent. Despite the high burden, cancer death rates have steadily declined since the 1990s, with annual decreases of 1.7% in men and 1.3% in women reported between 2018 and 2022.
Temperature management is also critical in cardiovascular procedures, where maintaining normothermia helps reduce complications and improve recovery. Cardiac surgeries and catheter-based interventions often require controlled temperature environments to stabilize metabolism, reduce ischemic injury, and support hemodynamics. In October 2024, according to the CDC, heart disease remained the leading cause of death in the U.S., responsible for over 919000 deaths in 2023, roughly 1 in every 3. It affects people across all racial and ethnic groups, with coronary artery disease being the most common type. The growing prevalence of cardiovascular disease and increased use of minimally invasive procedures are driving demand for advanced temperature management systems in surgical and interventional settings.
Strategic partnerships and distribution agreements are expanding access to temperature management technologies. In January 2024, SourceMark announced a renewed partnership with Gentherm Medical, a leading manufacturer of temperature control systems. Through this agreement, SourceMark became the primary U.S. distributor for Gentherm’s specialized patient warming products. This collaboration reflects a broader industry trend toward improving product availability and clinical outcomes in surgical, critical care, and oncology applications.
