Hospital-acquired infections are believed to be one of the major health concerns affecting patient recovery, which has a major impact on mortality rates globally. According to WHO on the prevention of HAIs, the increase in the duration of hospitalization of persons suffering from HAIs was found to be approximately 8 days.
Thus, prolonged stays are a significant contributor to the overall costs incurred during hospitalization, thus raising clinical urgency to adopt measures for the prevention of infections.
High risk of infection from blood-borne pathogens, drug-resistant pathogens, and other infectious agents in operating rooms is one of the major concerns for hospitals.
It has been observed that consistent implementation of infection control and prevention measures has resulted in a significant decline in the number of HAI cases, and the scenario is likely to improve over the coming years if these measures are implemented at the same pace.
Frequent usage of urinary catheters creates a high risk of UTIs and may result in Catheter-Associated (CA) UTIs. According to NCBI, UTIs account for 25% of all bacterial infections. As per the National Nosocomial Infection Surveillance (NNIS) system report, most hospital-acquired UTIs are associated with catheterization, and CA-bacteriuria is the most frequently occurring infection globally.
Diabetic patients often develop severe UTIs requiring efficient as well as consistent treatment regimens, thus widening the future growth prospects of the infection control market. These factors exemplify the high clinical urgency to prevent surgical site infection and adopt Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), such as surgical gloves, resulting in a significant increase in the growth of the market.
North America accounted for around 50% of the market share in 2020, and is expected to dominate the overall market throughout the forecast period, owing to factors such as rising prevalence of chronic disorders and rising hospital-acquired infection.
The CDC (Centers for Disease Control) factsheet shows that (HAI) Hospital Acquired Infection accounts for approximately 99,000 fatalities and 1.7 Mn contamination every year in American hospitals. Furthermore, rising patient pool and demand for medical devices is also fueling market growth.
Consistent number of strategic collaborations adopted by key market players to widen their product portfolio and infection control capabilities are expected to be responsible for the greater share captured by the region.
In addition, favorable reimbursement policies and stringent government regulations regarding the disinfection and cleaning of medical equipment are expected to fuel the regional market over the forecast period.
The market in the U.S was valued at over US$ 410 Mn in 2020. Increasing healthcare expenditure in the US, increasing prevalence of HAIs, growing geriatric population, well-established hospital industries, and the rising incidence of chronic diseases are factors contributing to the high share of the North American region.
Improving healthcare infrastructure, increasing focus of emerging and leading market players on developing markets, rise in the number of hospitals, and the growing adoption of advanced surgical instruments for the surgeries are some of key factors that have grown the demand for medical device cleaning in the U.S.
By 2031, China is expected to have a market of roughly US$ 360 Mn. China spends 6% of its GDP on healthcare, according to estimates, and its medical equipment market has grown by double digits for the previous three decades.
Owing to the strong presence of outsourcing organizations, increasing healthcare expenditure, and unprecedented evolution of the healthcare standards and infrastructure across the China.
In addition, the outbreak of Covid-19 and the spread of infectious disease are further fueling the market growth. The presence of various voluntary and government organizations focused on improving infection control standards is also one of the major factors contributing to the market growth.
As per the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS), in the United Kingdom, over 28,000 procedures took place in 2018. The growing prevalence and increasing burden of HAIs and chronic diseases, rising geriatric population, and a growth in the number of surgeries are the primary factors driving the use of surgical instruments, which is expected to boost the demand for effective cleaning and disinfection solutions during the forecast period.
The Dominant share is retained by the surgical instruments segment owing to the growing number of surgical procedures such as cosmetic surgical procedures as well as the development of healthcare infrastructure is further expected to drive the market growth. Hence, with the rising number of surgical procedures, the surgical instrument segment will witness significant growth, over the forecast period.
Automatic cleaning is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period owing to the increasing use of automatic washers to maximize productivity with the minimum usage of detergents and disinfectants, the effective cleaning of organic contaminants from surgical instruments, and the minimum time required for cleaning by the automated washer.
The medical device cleaning market has been damaged by the covid-19 epidemic. The medical equipment industry has not been spared from the pandemic's effects. Medical device makers, like pharmaceutical businesses, rely heavily on healthcare facilities to obtain data for clinical trials.
Many medical device products must go through a series of pre- and post-market clinical investigations before receiving market authorization certificates. Due of the worldwide pandemic, medical device businesses are finding it harder to make educated judgments regarding their products, supply networks, and regulatory duties as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to spread.
Medical and healthcare departments are operating at full capacity to treat patients as the COVID-19 pandemic spreads. This has led to advancements in technologies and products being used in healthcare. 2021 is projected to be better, with the market regaining its original traction by 2022.
Major players with a prominent share in the market are focusing on expanding their customer base across several end-user industries.
