The global urinary tract infection testing market is anticipated to reach $1,027.4 million by 2031, increasing from $574 million in 2021 at a CAGR of 6.2% from 2022 to 2031.
The rise in the prevalence of chronic diseases such as kidney disease and diabetes, an increase in the preference of clinicians for complete urine analysis, the surge in demand for early disease detection, a rise in cases of hospital-acquired urinary tract infection, and an increase in the use of urine analysis tests are the key factors driving the growth of the urinalysis test market. In addition, the rise in demand for minimally invasive urine diagnostic procedures, the increase in adoption of advanced urine analysis testing procedures, and the surge in R&D activities for the introduction of novel and accurate diagnostic tests are some factors that support the growth of the UTI testing market.
The global market for urinary tract infection testing is anticipated to experience development challenges due to side effects associated with the usage of UTI medications. Frequent errors in the diagnosis and management of urinary tract infection testing can impede market expansion during the forecast period. The lack of identifiable symptoms associated with UTI, the absence of standard diagnostic criteria, and the high contamination of samples are some of the key hurdles to market expansion.
Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a common occurrence in females, during pregnancy, and in peri- and postmenopausal women. UTIs are associated with severe morbidity and death, and they impact the quality of life of the affected people. Antibiotic therapy is a successful treatment that shortens the duration of symptoms. The development of resistance, the undesirable effects of antibiotics, and other linked issues lead to the establishment of a research framework to discover alternate means to managing UTIs.
Natural techniques are widely employed in the treatment of numerous ailments to alleviate symptoms and improve overall health.The use of medicinal herbs in the treatment and prevention of numerous diseases has expanded recently]. Complimentary therapy with medicinal herbs is a study topic that may merit special consideration. It has been demonstrated that herbal remedies can be useful in the management of a certain form of UTI.
Treatment with non-antibiotic drugs is a good strategy to lower the chance of developing UTI and to decrease its symptoms. Natural elements, minerals, and probiotics are among several agents that draw interest. Co-formulation of medications in a single dose form can create a natural formulation that is useful for both preventive and therapeutic methods in the management of UTI because each of these medications operates through a separate mechanism.
The COVID-19 pandemic brought several uncertainties, leading to severe economic losses as various businesses across the world were at a standstill. The arrival of the COVID-19 pandemic negatively impacted the manufacturing and supply chain & logistics industries, adversely affecting the healthcare business. Governments and healthcare providers are facing unheard-of issues owing to COVID-19, which has also had an impact on the regulatory environment and procedures. Patients with COVID-19 who were hospitalized were reportedly diagnosed with urinary tract infections. But multiple examinations have revealed that people with COVID-19 did not have severe urinary tract symptoms. Antibiotics are used extensively in COVID-19 patients due to high levels of blood inflammatory indicators of bacterial infection such as elevated C-reactive protein and procalcitonin. The majority of these individuals, however, had microbiologically verified bacterial co-infection symptoms.
