Industry Trends and Drivers:

• Increasing Prevalence of Infectious Diseases:

The global ailment frequency calling for point of care (POC) diagnostics is on an increase and so the market. Infectious diseases such as influenza and tuberculosis need diagnosis so as to enable treatment once possible and this is therefore contributing to the development of POC testing. POC molecular diagnostics are not like conventional laboratory procedures in that one gets results within an hour enabling clinical decisions. This rate is important in containing the spread and enhancing the patient results. Likewise, molecular diagnostics do not require specialized laboratories to perform tests at the point of care that can efficiently combat diseases such as those causing enhanced infectious disease control in regions that may be hard to reach or poorly endowed. Therefore, rapid POC molecular diagnostics is now broadly used by the healthcare providers as one of the strategies for diagnosis.

• Technological Advancements and Miniaturization:

Current innovations are being driven by expansion that is especially driven by development of miniaturization of molecular diagnostic devices. Microfluidic systems, lab-on-a-chip, smart phone application, point of care PCR facilities are making it feasible to create compact, easy to handle POC diagnostic kits. These devices have capabilities to do molecular tests with equal proficiency and sensitivity as a clinical laboratory equipment. The convenience of these devices is that the diagnostic test can be performed at the patient’s bed side, in clinics or even in any other place or environment. That advancement in technology is also making molecular diagnostics more portable to other aspects than just laboratory setting which can embrace its usage.

• Growing Demand for Personalized Medicine:

The rise of personalized medicine is boosting market growth. This approach customizes treatments based on genetics and disease specifics. It needs quick, precise diagnostic tools. POC molecular diagnostics meet this need. They swiftly identify genetic markers, pathogens, and mutations. This aids in crafting personalized treatments. For example, in cancer care, these tests spot specific mutations. This helps doctors select the best therapies. Such tailored treatments enhance effectiveness and reduce risks. This leads to better patient outcomes. The demand for POC molecular diagnostics is thus increasing, driven by the shift towards personalized healthcare and the need for timely, accurate tests.
