Global Meningitis Diagnostic Testing Market - 2024-2031
Description
Global Meningitis Diagnostic Testing Market - 2024-2031
Global Meningitis Diagnostic Testing Market reached US$ YY million in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ YY million by 2031, growing at a CAGR of YY% during the forecast period 2024-2031
Meningitis is an infection and inflammation of the meninges, the fluid and membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord. Symptoms include headache, fever, and stiff neck. Most cases in the US are caused by viral infections, but bacteria, parasites, and fungi can also cause it. Some cases improve without treatment, while others can cause death and require emergency antibiotic treatment. Seeking immediate medical care is crucial for preventing serious complications.
Market Dynamics: Drivers & Restraints
Rise in the prevalence of meningitis
The global meningitis diagnostic testing market is driven by rising global prevalence, demand for advanced diagnostics, point-of-care diagnostic services, and research and development investments for effective diagnosis and treatment, with the forecast period expected to be dominated by these factors.
For instance, according to a recent article published in NCBI, The incidence of meningitis worldwide is estimated to be 20 cases per 100,000 people; that is, about 1.2 million; the incidence and causes vary across geographic regions.
Shortage of skilled professionals
Accurate diagnosis of meningitis is crucial for timely and effective treatment, as the condition can progress rapidly and result in severe complications or death. However, several challenges related to the shortage of skilled healthcare professionals, particularly in rural and underdeveloped areas, can restrict the usage and effectiveness of diagnostic tests.
The lack of skilled professionals can lead to delays in diagnosis, which is critical for conditions like meningitis that progress rapidly. Delayed diagnosis can result in worse outcomes, including higher morbidity and mortality rates.
Segment Analysis
The global meningitis diagnostic testing market is segmented based on infection type, diagnosis type, end-user, and region.
The PCR assay from the diagnosis type segment accounted for approximately 39.5% of the meningitis diagnostic testing market share
The PCR assay from the diagnosis type segment accounted for approximately 39.5%. The PCR assay segment is expected to dominate during the forecast period owing to the factors like, the availability of RT-PCR platforms, which provide results in less than two hours, including multi-target and single-target detection tests. Technological advancements in PCR assays, which reduce turnaround times and promote precise diagnosis, are expected to further drive the segment's growth. The high sensitivity and precision of PCR tests are expected to further increase their adoption in meningitis testing.
For instance, in January 2024, QIAGEN announced that its QIAstat-Dx Meningitis/Encephalitis Panel, a qualitative multiplexed nucleic acid-based in vitro diagnostic test has received approval from the Health Sciences Authority Singapore (HSA). The QIAstat-Dx system is designed for use in laboratories and employs cost-efficient, single-use cartridges with all reagents on board and built-in sample processing. Utilizing multiplex real-time PCR, it detects and differentiates between multiple pathogens.3
Geographical Analysis
North America is estimated to hold about 38.4% of the total market share throughout the forecast period
North America is estimated to hold about 38.4% of the total market share throughout the forecast period owing to factors due to strategic initiatives and the presence of leading players. High adoption of advanced diagnostic devices, easy access to test kits, increased awareness about early diagnosis, and an increase in diagnostic centres are expected to fuel region expansion. Government initiatives to promote infectious disease diagnosis offer lucrative growth opportunities in the future.
Covid 19 Impact Analysis
The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted the meningitis diagnostics testing market, as many people struggled to get routine immunizations due to the unavailability of primary care or self-isolation requirements. For instance, in February 2022, a study in Clinical Epidemiology and Global Health reported a meningitis outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo, causing strain on healthcare systems and a high case fatality rate of 50%.
