Hospital-acquired infections, acquired during hospital care and absent before admission, are managed through hospital-acquired infection control, employing cleaning, sterilization, and disinfection methods to reduce or eliminate transmission. These infections may stem from cross-contamination involving equipment surfaces, patient skin, and healthcare staff. The goal of hospital-acquired infection control is to curb the spread of illnesses.
The primary types of products in hospital-acquired infection control encompass sterilizers, disinfectors, endoscope reprocessors, microbial testing instruments, reagents, consumables, disinfectants, infection prevention and surveillance software, and others. Sterilizers, machines designed to thoroughly cleanse and eliminate bacteria, are employed to kill germs on surfaces or in fluids, preventing disease transmission. Various technologies, including phenotypic and genotypic methods, address diseases such as hospital-acquired pneumonia, bloodstream infections, surgical site infections, gastrointestinal infections, urinary tract infections, and others. Applications range from disease testing to drug-resistance testing, with end users including hospitals, ICUs, ambulatory surgical and diagnostic centers, nursing homes, maternity centers, and others.

The hospital-acquired infection control market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $33.01 billion in 2023 to $34.35 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.1%. The increase observed in the historical period can be ascribed to increasing antibiotic resistance, growing awareness, stringent regulations, the globalization of infectious diseases, and patient safety initiatives.
The hospital-acquired infection control market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $41.37 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.8%. The expansion anticipated in the forecast period can be linked to the rise of multidrug-resistant pathogens, pandemic preparedness, increased surveillance and monitoring, antimicrobial stewardship programs, and international collaboration. Major trends projected for the forecast period encompass the adoption of real-time location systems (RTLS), integration of artificial intelligence (AI) for surveillance, a shift towards single-use and disposable devices, emphasis on staff training and education, and increased utilization of UV-C and other disinfection technologies.
The hospital-acquired infection control market is anticipated to experience growth driven by the surge in COVID-19 cases. COVID-19, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, has led to an increased demand for infection control products and services, emphasizing personal hygiene and the production of medical supplies. As of August 8, 2022, global COVID-19 cases reached 581.6 million, according to the World Health Organization, underscoring the market's expansion due to the ongoing pandemic.
The hospital-acquired infection control market is poised for growth, driven by the anticipated increase in healthcare expenditures. Healthcare expenditures encompass the total spending on healthcare-related services, products, and activities over a specified period. With a rise in healthcare spending, hospitals and healthcare facilities are expected to allocate additional resources for the adoption of advanced infection prevention technologies, including innovative solutions such as advanced disinfection systems and smart monitoring devices. For example, in May 2023, the UK's Office for National Statistics reported a 9.4% increase in healthcare spending, totaling $367.25 billion (£280.7 billion) in 2021. The substantial growth in healthcare expenditure is expected to propel the hospital-acquired infection control market.
Premier companies are at the forefront of the hospital-acquired infection control market, emphasizing technological advancements. These leading players are dedicated to creating innovative technological solutions to take the lead in the market. For example, in November 2021, scientists from the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine and Carnegie Mellon University employed machine learning technology coupled with whole genome sequencing to rapidly identify infectious disease outbreaks in hospitals. This method detects significant outbreaks that might otherwise escape routine infection prevention monitoring.
Premier companies in the hospital-acquired infection control market are innovating by developing profitable products, such as digital platforms. In this context, a digital platform refers to an integrated and technology-driven solution designed to manage, monitor, and enhance infection prevention and control measures within healthcare facilities. For instance, Nanosonics, an Australia-based healthcare technology provider, launched AuditPro in June 2021. AuditPro is an advanced infection prevention platform tailored for medical settings, particularly focusing on ultrasound procedures. It incorporates a mobile scanning device, a user-friendly app for decision support, real-time risk alerts, and information-packed dashboards. Organizations can choose between the AuditPro Digital Logbook or the Workflow Compliance Management Solution, both seamlessly integrating with the trophon2 device for comprehensive infection prevention.
