Urinalysis Market Growth & Trends
The global urinalysis market size is expected to reach USD 5.4 billion by 2030, according to a new study by Grand View Research Inc. The market is expected to witness a CAGR of 4.6% from 2022 to 2030. Increasing incidence of UTI worldwide contributes to market growth. According to a study published by SHEA journal, in 2021, approximately 60% to 70% of urinalyses were being performed in patients without symptoms referable to the Gastrointestinal Tract (GU).
Increasing geriatric population and the subsequent increase in age related diseases in developed and developing regions will positively influence urinalysis market growth. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the geriatric population increased from 1 billion in 2020 to 1.4 billion in 2021. The early diagnosis and management of chronic diseases in geriatric population is responsible for the increasing prescription rate for tests such as bilirubin, ketones, glucose, and creatinine. These tests are performed by urinalysis; hence, it is anticipated to drive market growth.
Moreover, for patients undergoing transplant surgeries including kidney and liver, transplant procedures is often recommended to undergo preoperative urinalysis to avoid urinary tract infections (UTIs). According to United Network for Organ Sharing data, around 24,669 kidney transplants, 9,236 liver transplants, and 3,817 heart transplants were performed in the U.S. in 2021. Thus, an increasing number of transplant surgeries is expected to fuel market growth.
Companies are taking initiatives such as collaboration and strategic partnerships for the development and marketing of technologically advanced urinalysis products. For instance, in October 2021, Sysmex entered into collaboration with Inpeco for the development of an automated urinalysis workflow solution of the highest level. This product was developed with a help of UN-Series of Sysmex’s and FlexLab TM track of Inpeco’s urinalysis solutions. It is the only fully open automation system that helps laboratories optimize their workflow support and provide premium patient care.
