The market of Europe ambulatory surgical and emergency center comprises different types of surgical procedures such as ophthalmology, pain management, gastrointestinal, orthopedic, dermatology, urology, obstetrics and vascular that can be done on ambulatory basis.

These all factors collectively propel the need of ambulatory surgical services during the forecast period. However, lack of proper ambulatory facilities and unfavorable reimbursement schemes for ambulatory services would restrain the market growth in Europe.
