European Markets for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Products
Report #A380 - September 2012
Respiratory diseases affect all age groups, with more than 65 million people
in Europe being affected and 1 in 7 deaths being caused by chronic lung
disease. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the most common
chronic lung disorder and the fourth leading cause of death in Europe. For the
purposes of this report, COPD is defined as chronic airway obstruction that
results from chronic bronchitis, emphysema, or a combination of these
diseases. COPD treatment products covered by this report include oxygen
therapy products, blood gas monitoring systems, airway management accessories,
and spirometry testing products. In 2011, European sales of these products
totaled nearly $2.0 billion. Over the forecast period covered by this report,
sales are expected to increase at a compound annual rate of 5.9%, reaching an
estimated $2.7 billion in the year 2016.
This new report by Medtech Insight presents a detailed overview of the
European COPD treatment products market. Major topics covered by this report
include an overview of respiratory diseases including European disease
incidence and prevalence figures, oxygen therapy systems (e.g., oxygen
concentrators and liquid oxygen systems), blood gas monitoring systems (e.g.,
POC analyzers, laboratory analyzers, arterial blood gas sampling kits,
intra-arterial analyzers, pulse oximeters, and capnographers), airway
management accessories (e.g., heat/moisture exchangers, humidifiers,
nebulizers, and respiratory masks), and spirometry testing products (e.g.,
diagnostic and incentive spirometers).
