Retropharyngeal abscess is a bacterial thoracic infection that occurs at the back of throat and leads to pus. Major symptoms associated with the infection include severe throat infection and subsequent pain. Additionally, the person may experience stiffness in the neck and noisy breathing. The infection occurs when lymph nodes in the back of neck are infected and form pus. It can additionally lead to blockage in windpipe leading to a respiratory disease known as stridor. Diagnosis of retropharyngeal abscess includes computed tomography scan and X-rays. Furthermore, treatment can be carried out with the help of therapeutic medications mainly antibiotics. In addition, a surgery is carried out followed by a breathing tube to aid abscess drainage. Moreover, emergency management of retropharyngeal abscess involves airway attention, fluid resuscitation, antibiotic treatment, and a final surgery if need be. To prevent life threatening complications, an early recognition, diagnosis, and effective management are essential to battle retropharyngeal abscess morbidity and mortality.
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
- Pharmaceutical and biotech companies together with governments around the globe are working to address the COVID-19 outbreak, from supporting the development of vaccines to planning for medicine supply chain challenges. Currently, around 115 vaccine candidates and 155 molecules are in the R&D pipeline. Moreover, commonly used drugs such as hydroxychloroquine have witnessed a dramatic surge in demand for the management of COVID-19. Such high demand for these drugs has presented huge opportunities for manufacturers of COVID-19 management drugs, as many developed countries are facing shortage of these drugs. Thus, the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries are expected to witness a significant growth in the future, owing to the demand for vaccine and treatment drugs for COVID-19. This, in turn, is expected to have a significant impact on the global retropharyngeal abscess treatment market.
Top Impacting Factors
Rise in the incidents of chronic diseases coupled with growing awareness of advanced therapeutic medications that are all quick, reliable, and cheap is anticipated to drive market growth.
Increase in aged population who are at higher risk of acquiring acute infections such as tonsils is expected to boost market growth for effective treatment mechanisms. The trend is more likely witnessed in higher population base regions such as China and India.
Rise in the incidents of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection leading to rise in cases of retropharyngeal abscess is further anticipated to drive research and development of treatment mechanisms.
Higher demographic dividends in regions such as India and China with a subsequent larger youth population susceptible to acquiring tonsils is anticipated to boost the market growth.
However, side effects, myths, misconceptions, and complications associated with retropharyngeal abscess treatment medications such as severe bleeding, fatigue, and surgery-based infections hamper the market growth.
Moreover, higher costs associated with surgery coupled with lack of cardiac care infrastructure in undeveloped regions such as Africa and lack of favorable reimbursement policies may decline the global market penetration.
Key Market Trends
- North America is anticipated to witness huge dominance with respect to retropharyngeal abscess treatment market, owing to rising cases of chronic diseases in the region combined with higher per capita income to spend on advanced healthcare facilities.
- Europe is anticipated to witness high market traction owing to efficient healthcare infrastructure in the region coupled with rising geriatric population and rise of regional pharmaceutical players.
- Africa and the Middle East are not expected to witness huge market gains, owing to lack of healthcare infrastructure in the region coupled with continuous instability and unfavorable reimbursement policies.
- Asia-Pacific is anticipated to witness exponential growth in the region, owing to surge in geriatric population combined with growing awareness on therapeutic advancements and advent of regional players. This is further fueled by large chunk of government influx in research and development of new medications.
