Increase in Prevalence of Chronic and Infectious Diseases

According to WHO, globally people living with HIV accounted for approximately 36.7 million in 2016, of which the highest number of people living with HIV is reported in Africa with approximately 25.6 million. According to WHO estimates, tuberculosis accounted for 450,000 cases in 2013, in the South African countries. Furthermore, it also stated that out of these 450,000 cases, approximately 270,000 (60%) people have both HIV and TB. The increase in these diseases is expected to increase the demand of the diagnostic devices, which in turn drives the IVD market.

Increase in Technological Advancements

Technology plays a vital role in the advancement of healthcare sector. Earlier, molecular testing was performed only by a skilled professional in laboratories and hospitals, however, the automated technology enables testing not only in hospitals but also at home. For instance, in 2017 BioSURE introduced first self-test HIV kit known as, BioSURE HIV Self-Test in South Africa. This overcomes the challenge of HIV diagnosis in South Africa, as the people did not have access to test facility or did not incline to test themselves. The escalation in rate of the technological advancement and increase in preventive awareness is expected to raise the demand for diagnosis, thereby driving the IVD market.

Increase in Government Expenditures on Healthcare

The need of cost reduction and continuous quality improvement in healthcare sector creates opportunity for investment. Hence, the governments of all the regions have increased their healthcare expenditures for reducing the disease rate in the countries. According to the WHO, the total healthcare expenditure for Nigerian government has increased from 6.48% in 2013 to 8.17% in 2014. The increase in LAMEA economic conditions are expected to increase government funding in healthcare sector, which in turn contributes to the growth of the IVD market.

Analyst Review

In vitro diagnostics (IVD) are diagnostic tests that monitor the concentration of blood, urine, stool, tissues, and body fluids of human body and provide information to assist the diagnosis and treatment of diseases and disorders. These tests are generally performed in standalone laboratory, hospitals, academic and medical schools, point-of-care testing, and others. The standalone laboratories accounted for the highest market share in 2016 and is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period owing to the increase in the outsourcing of tests and availability of high-tech & well-equipped machines for the fast & accurate test results.

Latin America accounted for the highest share owing to improving healthcare infrastructure due to increase in government expenditure in healthcare sector. According to the WHO, the Mexico government healthcare expenditure has increased from 11.36% in 2011 to 11.58% in 2014. Africa accounted for the highest market potential because of rise in prevalence of communicable and non-communicable diseases such as tuberculosis, HIV, cancer, and others.
