Point-of-care testing refers to medical diagnostic tests that are performed at or near the patient, rather than being sent to a laboratory for analysis. Point-of-care glucose testing is a type of medical diagnostic test that measures the level of glucose (sugar) in a patient's blood. This test is typically performed using a blood glucose meter, which is a portable device that provides a rapid measurement of a patient's blood glucose level. Point-of-care glucose testing is commonly used in the management of diabetes, a chronic condition in which the body is unable to regulate blood glucose levels effectively. Patients with diabetes often need to monitor their blood glucose levels regularly to ensure that they are within a healthy range, and to make treatment decisions based on their results.
Major factors that drive the growth of the point-of-care glucose testing market Include rapid advancements in glucose testing devices and Increase in number of patients suffering from diabetic disorders, such as diabetic nephropathy and diabetes mellitus. For instance, according to the 10th edition of the International Diabetes Federation (IDF)’s Diabetes Atlas, in 2021, 537 million adults (20-79 years) are living with diabetes worldwide. Over 3 in 4 adults with diabetes live in low- and middle Income countries. Diabetes is responsible for 6.7 million deaths in 2021, 1 every 5 seconds. It caused at least $966 billion dollars in health expenditure which is a 316% Increase over the last 15 years. 541 million adults have Impaired Glucose Tolerance (IGT), which places them at high risk of type 2 diabetes.
Furthermore, surge in awareness among the population about self-management of diabetes contributes to the growth of point-of-care glucose testing market growth. In addition, the development of affordable and effective glucose testing devices and government initiatives to provide diabetes care facilities drive the growth of the point-of-care glucose testing market. For instance, in January 2022 Roche launched its new point-of-care blood glucose monitor designed for hospital professionals, with a companion device shaped like a touchscreen smartphone that will run its own apps. The hand-held Cobas pulse Includes an automated glucose test strip reader as well as a camera and touchscreen for logging other diagnostic results, all in a hardened body that can be cleaned with disinfectants. It’s designed to be used with patients of all ages, Including neonates and people in intensive care.
However, the accuracy concerns of glucose testing meter are expected to hamper the point-of-care glucose testing market growth. On the contrary, the surge in healthcare expenditure and rise in number of adoptions of key strategies by key players are expected to create immense opportunities for expansion of the global market in the future.
