Needles Market Needles Market: Business Planning Research, Reviews & Comparison of Alternatives

Needles Market.jpg
Needles are integral part of healthcare functions. Needles provide advantage over other routes of administration such as quick release of the drug in bodily fluids and instant relief for the patients. It has various applications ranging from surgical use to blood collection to drug administration. Needles such as safety needles are increasingly used in order to avoid needle stick injuries and infection. Needles such as pen needles are used by diabetic patients who need daily dose of insulin which is injected subcutaneously.

Market Dynamics

Major factor driving growth of the needles market is increasing demand for vaccines, globally to prevent various diseases such as measles, rubella and hepatitis B. According to World Health Organization (WHO) 2018, globally around 86% of infants are vaccinated against 26 diseases, however, 19.5 million children unvaccinated leading to death of 2-3 million children each year. Human papilloma virus causes cervical cancer and around 280,000 women died from cervical cancer in 2015 globally, which led to introduction of vaccine to prevent cervical cancer, in turn positively affecting needles market. Introduction of stringent guidelines for safe injection practices is expected to aid in growth of the needles market. For instance, WHO issued safe injection practices and guidelines in 2010, for its member country. Also, Association of Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology in the U.S. issued updated guidelines in 2016 to prevent spread of infectious disease through unsafe injection practices.

High prevalence of chronic diseases worldwide is projected to fuel growth of the needles market

Several factors are associated with increasing adoption of needles worldwide. One of the major factors is high prevalence of chronic disease across the world, which is propelling demand for needles. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2017, non-communicable diseases such as cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and lung diseases accounted for around 70% death worldwide, which was majorly from middle and low income economies. Furthermore, chronic diseases are expected to account for around 75% of all deaths worldwide by 2020. Therefore, this is expected to aid in market growth, as needle is an integral part of chronic disease treatment. For instance, according to Diabetic Atlas by International Diabetes Federation (IDF), 2017, diabetes affected around 425 million people worldwide. Patients suffering from diabetes require daily administration of insulin with continuous glucose monitoring, which in turn is propelling demand for pen needles. Furthermore, the U.S. majorly invest in treatment of diabetes and cancer, annually. For instance, around US$ 377 Billion are invested, which account for 52% of the total diabetes expenditure worldwide, according to the IDF report 2017. Also, according to World Cancer Research Organization, 2014 report, cancer incidence in the U.S. is one of highest at 328 per 100,000, which is expected to propel growth of the needles market in this region.


Growing geriatric population worldwide to drive growth of the global needles market

Rising geriatric population is expected to drive growth of the needles market. As per World Population Prospect, 2017 Revision report by United Nations in 2017, there were 962 million people, under the geriatric category (people aged 60 years and above). By 2030, this is projected to be 1.4 billion increasing at an annual rate of 3%. Geriatric people require frequent hospitalizations due to aging-associated diseases such as heart disease, stroke, diabetes and falling injuries. In certain cases, surgery is required which leads to hospitalization. This is expected to aid in growth of the market. Asia Pacific has a geriatric population of 547 million people, which is expected to reach 900 million geriatric population by 2025. Therefore, manufacturers could focus on expanding in this region. Also, stringent regulations related to safe injection practices by various governments is expected to propel demand for safety needles, in order to reduce chances of contamination from blood borne pathogens, for instance according to report published by WHO in 2014, up to 1.7 million people were infected with hepatitis B virus, up to 315 000 with hepatitis C virus and as many as 33 800 with HIV through an unsafe injection.

Some of the key players operating in the global needles market are Becton, Dickinson and Company, Medtronic plc, Hamilton Company, Stryker Corporation, Terumo Corporation, B. Braun Melsungen AG, Boston Scientific Corporation, Nipro Medical Corporation, Novo Nordisk A/s, Thermo Fisher Scientific, and Smiths Medical.

Cold pain therapy is a therapeutic application of cold, used in the treatment of acute soft tissue injuries and to reduce the pain in post-operative condition in orthopedic surgeries, treatment of benign and malignant lesions, and in pain management. Cryotherapy can be applied topically (on the skin surface), surgically or percutaneously. This can also be used to treat various skin conditions such as oral mucositis and tumors in the liver, kidney, bones, breasts and lungs, skin tumors, skin tags, pre-cancerous skin moles, and injuries. Cryosurgery procedure involves use of extreme cold, produced with help of liquid nitrogen (or argon gas) to destroy abnormal tissues. According to the National Cancer Institute (NCI), cryosurgery is used for treatment of several types of cancers and some non-cancerous conditions. It is reported to be effective for treatment in early stage skin cancer, retinoblastoma, actinic keratosis, and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia. Accord...

Ursodeoxycholic Acid Market Shows Boosted Growth Rate 2018-2026 Estimated by Global Top Players

Image
Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) is a bile acid taken as either a tablet or liquid to treat gallstones and to treat and prevent the progression of cystic fibrosis-related liver disorder. UDCA modifies the bile acid pool by decreasing levels of hydrophobic bile acids while increasing proportion of nontoxic hydrophilic bile acids. UDCA can delay development of gastroesophageal varices and progression to cirrhosis. Moreover it can improve long-term survival in patients with primary biliary cirrhosis. Significant improvement in liver health can be achieved during UDCA therapy in patients with intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy, primary sclerosing cholangitis, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, cystic fibrosis-associated liver disease, total parenteral nutrition-induced cholestasis, graft related liver disease, and in some pediatric cholestatic liver diseases. The global ursodeoxycholic acid market size was valued at US$ 346.2 million in 2017, and is expected to witn...

Booms and Busts in Anatomic Pathology Market; Dynamics Trends Over The Time Discussed 2018-2026

Image
Anatomic pathology involves direct visualization of human tissue as gross examination as well as under a microscope for proper diagnosis of the disease or a pathological condition. Subtypes of anatomic pathology include surgical pathology, oral and maxillofacial pathology, cytopathology, molecular pathology, and forensic pathology. Procedures performed in anatomic pathology include gross examination, histopathology, immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridization, cryopathology, tissue cytogenetics, and others. Standard approach in anatomical pathology is microscopic examination of tissue samples with the help of one or more stains. Manufacturers have developed stains to identify and classify microorganisms in biopsy of tissue samples or excisional specimens. Various gram stains and acid-fast stains have applications in detection of bacteria and mycobacteria in tissue samples. Commercially available products include tissue processing systems, microtomes, cryostats, ...
