Disease Diagnostics Market: Global Industry Analysis and Forecast 2014 - 2020”.
Infectious diseases are caused by pathogenic microorganisms such as bacteria, parasites, virus, and
fungi. It can be spread directly or indirectly from one person to another. Fever, muscle ache, diarrhea, and
fatigue are some of the common signs and symptoms of infectious diseases. These symptoms may vary
depending upon the organism causing infection. Many infections, such as measles and chicken pox, can
be prevented by vaccination. These are treated with the help of antibiotics and anti-fungal and anti-
parasitic drugs. Various laboratory tests, imaging scans, and biopsies are carried out to identify microbes
causing illness. Point-of-care tests for infectious disease can improve the detection and management of
infectious diseases by reducing the time between testing and diagnosis of an infection. New trends in
healthcare such as healthcare at home make point-of-care tests the most efficient and effective way of
delivering healthcare.

It involves the performance of a test close to the site of patient care to provide immediate results, outside
the conventional laboratory environment. Tuberculosis, HIV, hepatitis, influenza, sexually transmitted
infections, and tropical diseases such as dengue fever and malaria are some of the major diseases that
can be tested using point-of-care testing devices. Rapid diagnosis of an infection benefits patient by
facilitating timely access to care and also reduces the probability of disease transmission. Moreover,
point-of-care tests help to improve the management of infectious diseases in settings wherein access to
quality and timely medical care is difficult. Recent developments in the delivery of healthcare services and
diagnostic technology have resulted in an increase in demand for POCT in primary and community care
services.
North America dominates the global market for point-of-care infectious disease diagnostics due to rising
incidence of infectious diseases in the region. Asia is expected to show high growth rates in the next five
years in this market. China and India are projected to be the fastest growing markets in the region. The
key driving forces for the point-of-care infectious disease diagnostics market in developing countries are
the large pool of patients, increasing awareness about diseases, improving healthcare infrastructure, and
rising government funding in these countries.

Forecast 2014 - 2020
Increasing prevalence of infectious diseases, rise in geriatric population, increasing prevalence of lifestyle
associated diseases, increase in healthcare expenditure, increasing awareness about healthcare through
campaigns and conferences, and increasing number of initiatives by various governments and
government associations are some of the key factors driving the growth of the global point-of-care
infectious disease diagnostics market. However, disadvantages of point-of-care testing over central lab
methods and stringent and time-consuming regulatory policies are major restraint for the growth of the
market.
Miniaturization of point-of-care testing devices would help develop opportunities for the global point-of-
care infectious disease diagnostics market. Standardization of point-of-care testing devices and
acquisition of small players are some of the trends in the market. The major companies operating in the
global point-of-care infectious disease diagnostics market are Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., Alere Inc.,
Calypte Biomedical Corporation, Chembio Diagnostic Systems, Inc., Meridian Bioscience, Inc., MedMira,
Inc., Trinity Biotech plc, Sekisui Diagnostics, OraSure Technologies, Inc., and Quidel Corporation.
