The Asia-Pacific hospital-acquired infection diagnostics market accounted for $418.937 million in 2019, and is expected to reach $780.882 million by 2027, registering a CAGR of 7.5% from 2020 to 2027.
Hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) are type of infections acquired during hospitalization and are commonly known as nosocomial infection. These infections can be acquired in hospital, nursing home, rehabilitation facility, outpatient clinic, or other clinical settings. They can be acquired from an infected patient, outside environment, or from a staff of that facility. The hospital-acquired infection diagnostics market is primarily driven by the growth in awareness among healthcare workers and proposed government initiatives by many governmental organizations. Further, in the developing economies such as China, India, and Brazil, the cleanliness and hygiene is minimum. Hence, it results in more hospital-acquired infections, which further increases the demand for hospital-acquired infection diagnostics. However, the increase in healthcare cost and prevalence of antibiotic resistant infections impede the market growth.
A majority of hospitals in APAC (approx. 70%) expect pharma and medical device manufacturers to maintain or increase on-site presence and support for new product training, but decrease their presence and support for sales detailing and service support. Moreover, in regions severely affected by COVID-19, vascular procedures have been reduced to life or limb salvaging cases, owing to new government directives or hospital guidelines. This measure is expected to keep hospital beds and healthcare providers available for COVID-19 patients, as well as to save personal protective equipment (PPE) and reduce viral transfer among patients and between patients and staff. All these factors are anticipated to impact the Asia-Pacific hospital-acquired infection diagnostics market as well in the future.
An increase in the number of hospital-acquired infections, especially in the developing and underdeveloped economies has surged the demand in the hospital-acquired control market. Different emerging economies such as India, China, South Africa, Brazil, and Mexico are witnessing a surge in the number of under-served patients. Economic development in these regions is creating scopes of the growth for the manufacturers on the back of a large patient pool. Growth in medical expenditure and infrastructure encouraged by the governments of the respective economies is enhancing the adoption rate of sophisticated medical devices, generating substantial revenue in the market. High demand for devices such as endoscope reprocessing devices which are capable of disinfecting medical devices is pushing ahead the boundaries of growth of the hospital-acquired infection diagnostics market. Innovations focused on avoiding cross contaminations and enhancing the patients' safety are gaining preference in the medical sector
Increase in investment in infectious disease-related researches propels the market growth. As an instance, as per the estimation of NHS in 2019, it states that NHS would invest more than USD 6 Billion on infectious disease-related research. Under such investments re-emerging diseases like tuberculosis and emerging infectious diseases like the Heartland and Bourbon viruses are taken into consideration. Increase in the number of healthcare-associated infection foster the market demand. Furthermore, it is particularly relevant for highly populated and developing regions. The growing emphasis on addressing the issue of tropical disease treatment and diagnosis in developing nations, United Nations Development Program (UNDP), World Health Organization (WHO), and United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) have come up with TDR, the special program for research and training in tropical disease. The development of such special programs by various healthcare agencies is also opening new avenues for the application of various diagnostics methods supporting the growth of the market.
Rise in prevalence of population suffering from respiratory diseases, gastrointestinal infection, blood infection and others is expected to positively affect the growth of the market. Moreover, increase in initiatives undertaken by authorities and governments to improve healthcare systems and spread awareness regarding benefits of sanitization and personal hygiene are also expected to increase growth of the hospital-acquired infection diagnostics market. For instance, WHO had introduced an awareness program known as Patient Safety Solutions, in which WHO promoted hand hygiene adherence as a health care facility on priority to reduce the burden of infectious diseases. Thus, due to the introduction of various awareness programs, it is expected to create awareness among individuals regarding the hospital acquired infection, which would further create lucrative opportunities for key market vendors.
