Urinalysis Global Market Report 2024

The global urinalysis market has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $3.30 billion in 2023 to $3.55 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.5%. The growth observed in the historical period within the field of urinalysis can be attributed to several key factors. These include the increasing healthcare expenditure worldwide, advancements and expansion in healthcare infrastructure, regulatory changes and standardization affecting diagnostic practices, the growing need for drug screening and forensic applications involving urine tests, as well as the development and enhancement of clinical laboratory practices pertaining to urinalysis procedures.

The global urinalysis market is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.91 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.5%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period within urinalysis and diagnostic practices can be linked to several key factors. These include the increasing adoption of point-of-care testing (POCT) for swift and immediate diagnostic results, the focus on chronic disease management where urine tests play a significant role in monitoring and assessment, the impact of an aging population leading to a higher demand for healthcare services including diagnostic procedures, the emphasis on preventive healthcare leading to early detection through urine analysis, and the rise of remote monitoring and telemedicine practices that utilize urinalysis for diagnostic purposes. Major trends expected in the forecast period encompass innovative drug approvals that may necessitate advanced diagnostic testing, technological innovations enhancing the accuracy and efficiency of urinalysis procedures, the integration of personalized medicine principles into diagnostic approaches, and the evolution of chronic disease monitoring utilizing urine tests and related diagnostic tools.

The urinalysis market is anticipated to witness growth due to the rising geriatric population. The geriatric population, comprising individuals aged 65 and beyond, often experiences various diseases due to lower immunity and the effects of aging. Among the health concerns in this demographic, the increased risk of urinary tract infections (UTI) is notable. Urinalysis, which examines the visual, chemical, and microscopic components of urine, plays a crucial role in identifying and managing various illnesses prevalent in the geriatric population, including diabetes, kidney disease, and urogenital infections. According to the World Health Organization, by 2030, six people in the world will be aged 60 or older, reaching 1.4 billion individuals. The global population aged 60 and older is expected to double to 2.1 billion by 2050. The escalating number of elderly individuals, particularly those aged 80 and older, underscores the significance of urinalysis in addressing the healthcare needs of the geriatric population and, consequently, driving the urinalysis market.

The growth of the urinalysis market is further fueled by the increasing prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD). CKD is characterized by the gradual damage and loss of kidney function, impacting the organ's ability to filter blood effectively. Urinalysis serves as a crucial diagnostic tool for the identification, monitoring, and management of CKD, providing valuable insights into kidney health and overall bodily function. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports an estimated 35.3 million people in the U.S. with chronic kidney disease, with about 130,522 initiating treatment for end-stage kidney disease in 2020. Additionally, around 786,800 people in the U.S. are living with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), with 71% expected to undergo dialysis treatment in 2021. The growing prevalence of chronic kidney disease amplifies the demand for urinalysis and contributes to the market's expansion.

Technologically advanced instruments, incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) technology in urine analysis devices, represent a key trend gaining popularity in the urinalysis market. Notably, Olive Diagnostics, an Israel-based health tech company, launched Olive KG in February 2022. This urinalysis sensor device, powered by AI, provides real-time health alerts and early detection of disease progression. Olive KG measures various parameters, including red blood cells, proteins, ketones, nitrites, pH, volume, pressure, color, and urine frequency. Designed as a toilet-mountable Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) device, Olive KG delivers real-time personal data while adhering to GDPR and HIPPA act criteria. The integration of AI technology in urinalysis instruments exemplifies a technological advancement that enhances the efficiency and capabilities of urine analysis, contributing to the market's growth.

Major players in the urinalysis market are actively engaged in developing innovative products, such as urine particle analyzers, to secure a competitive advantage. Urine analyzers are clinical devices designed for automated urine testing, offering capabilities for the detection and quantification of multiple analytes. Urine particle analyzers, in particular, provide enhanced accuracy and precision compared to manual microscopy, contributing to the standardization of urine particle analysis and reducing inter-observer variability. A notable example of this trend is Sysmex Europe SE, a Germany-based automated in vitro diagnostics provider, which introduced the UF-1500 Fully Automated Urine Particle Analyzer in April 2023. This innovative device is engineered to achieve a significant reduction in footprint (approximately 30%) while maintaining high levels of performance and usability. Leveraging cutting-edge fluorescence flow cytometry technology, similar to Sysmex's flagship UF-5000, the UF-1500 caters to diverse customer needs. It serves as a fully automated urinalysis workstation for both developed and emerging markets, as well as backup and satellite systems for extensive facilities that have previously installed the UN-Series. Additionally, the UF-1500 supports connectivity to Sysmex's UC-3500 urine chemistry analyzers.

In a strategic move, Healthy.io Ltd., a U.S.-based healthcare company specializing in remote clinical testing and services, acquired Inui Health for $9 million in June 2022. This acquisition positioned Healthy.io Ltd. to expand its presence in the smartphone diagnostic market by integrating Inui Health's smartphone diagnostics platforms and other at-home testing services.
