As testing a wide variety of clinical samples with various bacillary loads, diagnostic instruments also need to be able to identify pulmonary or extra pulmonary diseases. Distinguishing between latent and active infections is critical. Moreover, a precise diagnosis during the early phases of the illness, when the levels of bacteria in samples are still elevated, is imperative to lower the chances of death, morbidity, and transmission. New product development and significant investments in automation technology integration improve diagnostic performance and shed light on latent and active tuberculosis. More people can receive treatment more quickly and effectively thanks to advancements in analytical tools, data usage and sharing, more precise and economical diagnostic tests, and safer and more economical treatment delivery and monitoring.
Global Tuberculosis Diagnostics Market Driving Factors and Challenges
The market for tuberculosis diagnostics is expanding at an extremely impressive rate. Numerous factors contribute to this growth. First off, there is a greater need for efficient diagnostic instruments as the number of TB cases rises globally. Second, improvements in medical technology have sparked the creation of quicker and more accurate diagnostic tests, which has further stimulated market growth. Research and development in the field of tuberculosis diagnostics has also been greatly aided by government initiatives and collaborations between pharmaceutical companies and healthcare organizations.
The market revenue growth may be significantly hindered by certain technological issues associated with tuberculosis diagnostics, for example. Moreover, a significant factor impeding market revenue growth is the growing technical complexity involved in developing these diagnostic technologies. One commonly used diagnostic test for tuberculosis is sputum smear microscopy, however it has drawbacks like low sensitivity.
Impact of COVID-19 on Global Tuberculosis Diagnostics Market
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, diagnosis and treatment services had to be cancelled in order to manage and reserve resources. As a result, many hospitals are facing a shortage of professionals to help with these diagnostic procedures. These consequences were felt by both COVID-19-infected patients and non-infected individuals. Government-imposed COVID-19 restrictions have hindered market expansion. Patients with tuberculosis have had difficulty accessing TB services for a variety of reasons, including limited mobility, fear of stigma, diminished financial resources to cover care or transportation, or fear of contracting SARS-CoV-2 infection. Diagnostic, therapeutic, and preventive approaches for tuberculosis have been affected worldwide as a result. The market's growth during the pandemic has thus been adversely affected by COVID-19.
