In Vitro Diagnostics (IVD) - Emerging Countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China)

Lifestyle and Infectious Diseases Encourage In Vitro Diagnostics Market in Emerging Countries
By: Rajesh Gunnam
 
May 18, 2012 - PRLog -- The emerging countries of Brazil, Russia, India and China (BRIC) represent a promising region for the diagnostic testing industry, as population growth and unhealthy lifestyles mean the patient population is growing rapidly, according to a new report from healthcare experts GlobalData.

The new report* predicts that the in vitro diagnostics (IVD) market will be driven by new technological advancements, a shift towards Point of Care (POC) testing and the adoption of cost cutting measures over the coming years. The ever increasing patient pool, improving healthcare infrastructure, and enhanced health awareness and affordability will also keep the IVD market buoyant in BRIC countries.

The increasing prevalence of lifestyle disorders and emergence of infectious diseases are expected to fuel future growth. In 2009, the Chinese government initiated healthcare reforms that invested $123 billion in the construction of hospitals and healthcare centers within rural areas, providing for many underserved citizens and opening new markets for medical device manufacturers. In addition, with the population of India estimated to exceed 1.7 billion by 2050, surpassing China, the underlying demand for healthcare is anticipated to display a strong boom.

The immunochemistry market accounted for 32% of the total revenue generated by the in vitro diagnostics market of emerging countries last year. Immunochemistry rapid tests are in high demand in the emergency departments of hospitals, as their use is imperative in emergency situations where practitioners must be able to obtain faster test results. BRIC countries are facing the double burden of a high incidence of infectious diseases and an increasing burden of non communicable diseases (NCDs) such as cancer and cardiovascular disorders. The increasing incidence of these diseases in BRIC countries provides opportunity for growth in the immunochemistry industry to cater to increased demand for testing for tumor markers and cardiac markers.
