Respiratory Pathogen Testing Kits Market Research, 2031
The global respiratory pathogen testing kits market was valued at $2.2 billion in 2021, and is projected to reach $3.7 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2022 to 2031. The respiratory tract infections are the most common diseases affecting humans. It can be associated with both self-limiting upper respiratory tract infections such as the common cold and more severe lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) such as bronchitis, bronchiolitis, pneumonitis, and pneumonia.
The lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) are a major cause of hospitalization, morbidity, and mortality in infants and the elderly and are associated with significant disease burden. According to the data by National Institute of Health, the number of viral respiratory episodes per year in developed countries has been estimated between 6 and 10 in children before school age versus 3 to 5 in those after this age and acute respiratory infection remains the cause of 30% to 40% of hospital admissions in this category of patients. A wide range of pathogens are involved in acute respiratory infection, including bacteria and viruses. The identification of the causative agent(s) is often omitted or limited to a few pathogens easy to detect by rapid antigen direct tests such as influenza viruses and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in respiratory specimens and Streptococcus pneumoniae & Legionella pneumophila in urine specimens.
