European Renal and Haemodialysis Replacement Equipment and Supplies Markets

 
End-Stage Renal Disease Population Continues to Grow

While the number of kidneys suitable for transplant remains constant, the demand for organs is on the rise, due to the growth of the elderly population and the increase in the incidence of diabetes. In 1999 there were approximately 215,000 patients with end-stage renal disease treated with renal replacement therapy in the countries covered in this report. Consequently, the markets for renal and haemodialysis replacement equipment and supplies are expected to realise impressive revenues over the forecast period.

This Frost & Sullivan report covers the replacement equipment and supplies involved in renal replacement therapies that are used to treat acute and chronic renal failure. Treatment modalities include haemodialysis (HD), peritoneal dialysis (PD) and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). By evaluating market drivers and restraints and by presenting expert forecasts for each segment within each of seven European regions, this report offers its users a comprehensive guide to the future of the industry.

How Will Cost-Cutting Affect the Marketplace?

"Cost-containment trends will continue in foreseeable future due to the growing economic burden of the ageing population," writes the industry analyst responsible for this report. "Governments will tighten controls on purchases of capital equipment and supplies while introducing measures for reimbursement reforms for specific medical care treatment."

The impact of controls will vary from country to country. "Depending on national economies, countries could move towards reimbursing renal replacement therapies, freezing reimbursement fees or refocusing resources towards lower cost treatment." With separate coverage of each geographical market, this report can help you plan for the future, no matter where you do business.

Vertical Integration Defines Field "One effect of widespread cost-containment is the trend towards vertical integration of product manufacturers and service providers," says the analyst.

"Acquisition of dialysis clinics could boost income for manufacturers since the dialysis service sector inherently has the potential to generate more revenues and greater profitably than the equipment sector." With revenues from the equipment and supply sector already declining in relation to those of the service sector, manufacturers must act now to sustain their position over the long run. This report surveys the changing competitive landscape, examines challenges that lie ahead and provides strategic recommendations to help your firm develop a winning plan of action.
