According to Mordor Intelligence, the global hospital acquired infection control market size was valued at USD 4.43 billion in 2025 and estimated to grow from USD 4.59 billion in 2026 to reach USD 5.52 billion by 2031, at a CAGR of 3.72% during the forecast period (2026-2031).

This report Segments the Industry Into by Product and Services (Equipment, Services, Consumables), by Infection Type (Surgical Site Infections (SSI) Catheter-Associated Urinary Tract Infections (CAUTI) and More ), by End User (Hospitals and Intensive Care Units, and More), and Geography. The Market Forecasts are Provided in Terms of Value (USD).
Surgical caseloads are climbing with aging populations and improved access to elective procedures. Roughly 1 in 31 inpatients acquires at least one infection each day, lengthening stays by 17 days and prompting a 42% readmission rate within 30 days. The financial impact is acute: surgical site infections alone cost USD 3 billion to USD 5 billion annually. These pressures reinforce continuous purchasing of disinfectants, sterile wraps, and barrier devices across the hospital-acquired infection control market.
The United States and several EU states tie Medicare, Medicaid, or national reimbursement to demonstrated infection-control performance, compelling hospitals to fund robust surveillance programs .Electronic dashboards that map hand-hygiene events or track central-line days help facilities defend payments and avoid penalties, stimulating demand for data-enabled solutions within the hospital-acquired infection control market.
