Blood Transfusion Diagnostics Market: Overview

The term "blood transfusion diagnostics" refers to tests performed on blood and blood components prior to their transfusion to patients. To avoid adverse reactions or infection transmission, every blood unit should be screened for blood group types and diseases. It's an important aspect of transfusion therapy since it gives healthcare workers important information and ensures the compatibility of recipient and donor blood samples.

Blood transfusion is a process of receiving blood or blood products from one person to another. Blood transfusions are used for various medical conditions such as loss of blood or any other components of the blood. Blood transfusion diagnostics play an important role in blood transfusion in order to avoid infection to both the receiver and donor. In the past decade, molecular diagnostics has grown into a multibillion-dollar industry thanks to the major advancements in biological chemistries and instrumentation. Robust diagnostic techniques are being adopted, allowing the ability to quantitate the data using real-time PCR and other techniques.

Hospitals and diagnostic laboratories are widely using molecular diagnostic techniques in blood transfusion testing and diagnosis. The tenfold growth in demand for diagnostic products and accessories from several end-users in the blood transfusion industry is augmenting the growth of blood transfusion diagnostic market. However, low blood donation rate and stringent regulations related to safe blood transfusion are a few hindrances faced by the global blood transfusion diagnostics market. On the other hand, rapid technological advancement and automation in blood processing equipment, increasing adoption of blood transfusion diagnostics in developing countries, and increasing government awareness programs are expected to offer the future prospects in the forecast period.

Blood Transfusion Diagnostics Market: Growth Drivers

Growing need for blood transfusion to foster the growth of the market

Blood transfusion demand is being driven by the growing prevalence of infectious and chronic diseases such as severe thrombocytopenia, sickle cell disease, liver disease, kidney disease, hemophilia, cancer, and anemia. According to WHO, anemia was shown to be prevalent in 29.9% of reproductive-age women globally, equating to nearly half a billion females aged 15 to 49. Non-pregnant females of reproductive age had a prevalence of 29.6%, while pregnant women had a prevalence of 36.5 %. In addition to this, the market is being driven by an increase in the number of delivery cases, surgeries, car accidents, and trauma, all of which have resulted in substantial transfusions. Transfusion-transmitted Infections (TTIs) are becoming more common, resulting in a significant demand for donor screening, thereby fueling the market growth.

Blood Transfusion Diagnostics Market: Restraints

High cost associated with the equipment and test to limit the market growth

For the long-term viability of health services that meet quality standards, it is critical to assess the cost and suitability of diagnosis & treatment approaches. Hospitals have evolved into socioeconomic institutions as medical technology has advanced, and they now account for a considerable portion of healthcare costs. The cost of allogeneic blood transfusion varies depending on the application in therapy expenditures. Purchase, treating transfusion-induced responses, monitoring, disposing of it as medical waste, supplying blood components to relevant clinics, testing & preparing the component suitable for transfusion, and submitting all required information imposes an expensive burden. All such factors coupled with the high cost of kits & reagents may impede the growth of the global blood transfusion diagnostics market.

Blood Transfusion Diagnostics Market: Opportunities

Introduction of advanced diagnostics and kits to drive the market during the forecast period.

With the technological advancements in the healthcare domain, there is the introduction of advanced and reliable diagnostics as well as reagents & kits for blood transfusion. Players in the market are focusing on implementing technical breakthroughs in testing techniques. Plasma fractionation is an example of such technological advancement. These factors are estimated to open numerous opportunities for the growth of the market. Also, factors such as growing demand for molecular-based screening of diseases and launch as well as approval of advanced systems have the potential to boost the market during the forecast period.

Blood Transfusion Diagnostics Market: Challenges

The lack of skilled professionals poses a challenge to the market

The prime challenge for the blood transfusion diagnostics market is the lack of skilled professionals to operate advanced equipment & kits used for tests and screening of the blood. In addition to this, strict regulatory bodies and unawareness of blood donations in underdeveloped countries are also some of the factors that pose a challenge to the growth of the market.
