Kidney Dialysis Equipment and Supplies - A Global Market Perspective

Kidney Dialysis Equipment and Supplies - A Global Market Perspective published by BizAcumen, Inc. in November, 2009. This report consists of Pages: 303 and the price starts from US $ 2995.

Introduction

Abstract

Worldwide, hundreds to thousands patients suffer from chronic kidney failure. The prevalence of renal failure is particularly high in economically developed countries. Developing countries present a contrasting scenario since leading causes of ESRD are not as widespread as in well-developed countries. While hypertension and diabetes are considered common in most, cardiovascular disease is the prime cause of death in majority of patients. The dialysis industry witnessed a sea change in the last decade, evolving from a local products-oriented business to a global services industry dominated by a handful of big, vertically integrated players.

These and other market data and trends are presented in "Kidney Dialysis Equipment and Supplies: A Global Market Perspective" by BizAcumen, Inc. Our reports are designed to be most comprehensive in geographic coverage and vertical market analyses.
