Cardiac markers are biomolecules released into the bloodstream in response to heart muscle damage or stress, serving as crucial tools for diagnosing and monitoring a spectrum of cardiac ailments such as heart attacks, angina, and heart failure.
The primary types of cardiac markers encompass troponin, creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB), B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), myoglobin, and various other biomarkers. Troponin, a protein released upon heart muscle damage, stands as a pivotal marker widely used for diagnosing and monitoring heart-related conditions. Diverse products in the realm of cardiac markers include reagents, instruments, and various detection methodologies such as chemiluminescence, immunofluorescence, immunochromatography, and ELISA. These markers find application across multiple indications, including myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, acute coronary syndrome, among others. End users encompass laboratory testing facilities, hospital labs, reference labs, contract testing labs, point-of-care testing facilities, and academic institutions, where these markers play a vital role in cardiac diagnostics and monitoring.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The sharp increase in U.S. tariffs and resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly impacting the medical equipment sector, especially for imported components used in imaging machines, surgical-grade stainless steel, and disposable plastics. With hospitals and clinics pushing back against price increases, manufacturers are facing margin pressure. The situation is further complicated by regulatory challenges, as switching suppliers due to tariffs often necessitates re-certification of medical devices, leading to delays in market entry. In response, companies are mitigating risks by dual-sourcing key components, ramping up domestic production of standardized items, and accelerating research into more cost-effective materials.
The cardiac marker market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides Cardiac marker market statistics, including global market size, regional shares, competitors with a cardiac marker market share, detailed cardiac marker market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the cardiac marker industry. This cardiac marker market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The cardiac marker market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $11.26 billion in 2024 to $12.38 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increased incidence of cardiovascular diseases, aging population and cardiovascular risk, awareness programs and health screenings, integration of biomarkers in clinical practice, stringent regulatory standards and guidelines.
The cardiac marker market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $20.05 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.8%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising burden of lifestyle-related diseases, remote monitoring and telemedicine, personalized medicine and precision diagnostics, point-of-care testing (poct) adoption, collaborations and partnerships in healthcare. Major trends in the forecast period include biomarker discovery and validation, personalized medicine approaches, technological advancements in assay platforms, integration of high-sensitivity troponin tests, rise in cardiovascular disease prevalence.
The forecast of 12.8% growth over the next five years reflects a modest reduction of 0.2% from the previous estimate for this market.This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. This is likely to directly affect the US through supply chain disruptions for creatine kinase (CK)-MB isoenzyme standards and B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) calibration materials, sourced from key regions such as Belgium and Sweden, which could lead to compromised test accuracy and increased cardiac diagnostic costs.The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.
The projected surge in the cardiac marker market is strongly driven by the escalating prevalence of cardiac diseases. This category comprises conditions affecting the heart's structure or functionality, leading to a spectrum of medical issues. Cardiac markers serve as crucial tools in diagnosing and monitoring various heart-related conditions such as heart attacks, angina, heart failure, and other cardiovascular diseases. Consequently, the demand for diagnostic tests involving cardiac markers has seen a notable increase. For instance, the British Heart Foundation reported an alarming increase of 30,000 deaths from coronary heart disease in England from the pandemic's onset to August 2022. Moreover, a staggering 346,000 individuals were on cardiac waiting lists by August 2022. Hence, the escalating prevalence of cardiac diseases significantly fuels the growth of the cardiac marker market.
The escalating demand within diagnostic centers stands as a pivotal driver for the cardiac marker market's growth trajectory. Diagnostic centers, specialized healthcare facilities, play a crucial role in conducting a range of medical tests and procedures aimed at identifying and monitoring health conditions. The incorporation of cardiac markers in these centers offers critical insights for timely and accurate diagnoses, risk assessment, and tailored treatment strategies, ultimately leading to improved cardiovascular health outcomes. For instance, according to GOV.UK, the year 2022 witnessed 73 diagnostic centers conducting an additional 30,000 tests per week, with projections suggesting a potential increase to 160 community diagnostic centers by 2025. Consequently, the surging demand within diagnostic centers is steering the growth of the cardiac marker market.
Innovation emerges as a significant trend gaining traction within the cardiac marker market, with major players focusing on pioneering solutions to fortify their market presence. For example, MiRxes, a Singapore-based biotechnology firm, recently validated a microRNA-based diagnostic test designed for early detection and diagnosis of illnesses. The forthcoming commercialization of this test will complement MiRxes' portfolio of blood tests for various conditions, aiming to alleviate the mounting clinical and socioeconomic burdens associated with life-threatening diseases, including cancer and cardio-pulmonary disorders.
Leading companies in the cardiac marker market prioritize innovative products, such as high-sensitivity troponin I (hs-cTnI) and NT-proBNP cardiac biomarkers, to drive market revenue. These biomarkers play crucial roles in diagnosing, categorizing, and treating cardiovascular ailments. For instance, in October 2023, Shenzhen Mindray Bio-Medical Electronics Co., Ltd., a prominent China-based medical equipment and solutions provider, launched troponin I (hs-cTnI) and NT-proBNP cardiac biomarkers. The hs-cTn assay surpasses minimal sensitivity, accuracy, and reliability requirements, aiding in identifying myocardial damage. These advanced products aim to enhance treatment approaches for cardiovascular diseases, offering dependable solutions to improve patient outcomes in both cardiovascular and related health contexts.
