Vision loss stands as one of the most problematic health issues as on today. As per the CDC (Center for Disease Control and Prevention) vision problems accounted for USD 51.4 billion in treatments, for the United States on an annual basis. Yearly, around 12,000 to 24,000 new cases of blindness due to diabetic retinopathy occur in U.S. In consequence, the government is looking forward to deploying cost-effective and efficient screening tests for diabetic patients, which would undeniably fuel U.S. diabetic retinopathy industry share.

Speaking along the same lines, in first half of 2017, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) also contributed majorly to U.S. diabetic retinopathy market share by approving the Lucentis (ranibizumab) injection for all kinds of diabetic retinopathy. Post the clinical trials, the analysis results depicted that 37.8% patients witnessed better improvement in diabetic retinopathy. Given that this is one of the most prominent causes of blindness across the U.S. among the working populace aged between 20 and 74, this approval has proved to be rather beneficial for diabetic retinopathy industry. The increasing demand for Lucentis injection for treating eye retina problems is cited to have a substantial impetus on diabetic retinopathy market share.

In order to deal with the increasing prevalence of blindness caused due to diabetic retinopathy, several players in diabetic retinopathy industry, in tandem with tech giants are investing heavily in software-based diagnosis methodologies. For instance, IDx, a medical device firm working on the development of software-based healthcare tools has invented an AI-based screening test for diabetic retinopathy. At present, it is under FDA clinical trial to obtain clearance for its use across U.S., post which it may bring about a revolution in U.S. diabetic retinopathy industry.

Contraceptives market revenue to be perpetually driven by the massive contribution of regional governments toward population control over 2017-2024

Posted on Updated on

The exponentially growing popularity of birth control methods to reduce the risk of unintended pregnancies is likely to drive contraceptives market in the years ahead. The critical acclaim that contraceptives have gained recently is quite evident from the robust sales of contraceptive implants and intrauterine contraception methods, that are being prominently utilized, pertaining to their effectiveness. Considering the role contraceptives play in population control, many of the regional governments have been organizing awareness programs for recommending their usage. Even the CDC for instance, has updated some of its guidelines for contraceptives with a few upgraded recommendations for healthcare providers. The aforementioned details provide evidence to the fact that stringent clinical guidelines outlined for healthcare suppliers will reduce barriers for contraceptive usage and access, which would eventually fuel contraceptives industry share over the years ahead. Numerous regulatory bodies have also been undertaking initiatives to educate people regarding the usage and benefits of contraceptives. For instance, WHO (World Health Organization) promotes family planning by providing guidelines on service delivery and the safety of contraceptive methods, supplying pre-qualification of contraceptive commodities, and helping countries to adopt & implement these facilities to fulfill their requirement.

Citing another instance of the vital role that regulatory bodies play in the growth of contraceptives market, it is prudent to mention that recently, the Philippines Department of Health (DOH) announced that it would buy contraceptives worth 200 million pesos. Through this purchase, the government apparently aims to manufacture pills and other contraceptives in order to overcome the current shortage and fulfill the demand for family planning products in the ensuing years. The initiative undertaken by the Philippines DOH takes precedence in contraceptives market, validating the fact that the prevalence of family planning policies and government programs is likely to stimulate Asia Pacific contraceptives market share over the years ahead.

Speaking of Asia Pacific, the sub-continent of India falls among the list of countries that is currently over-populated. The population of the country, as of 2016, is reportedly over 1.3 billion. On these grounds, the Indian government has implemented several social programs to deliver contraceptives directly to communities. The government has also made efforts to recruit Accredited Social Health Activists (ASHAs) for delivering contraceptives at the doorstep. Many programs so far, have apparently witnessed enormous success, positively influencing community-based family planning, which would eventually boost India contraceptives industry trends.

Currently, numerous contraceptives market giants and regulatory bodies have been striving to bring about a transformation in the product landscape of this business sphere. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for instance, has revealed a list of 51 contraceptives for re-certification based on the parameters of safety and non-abortifaciency. Even in the U.S., the California Health Benefits Review Program (CHBRP) has enforced a federal contraceptive mandate – the Affordable Care Act (ACA). On these grounds, the Trump administration has released two interim rules related to ACA’s contraceptive coverage requirement, which would provide a boost to U.S. contraceptives market trends. Considering the strict outlook that regulatory bodies have toward newly developed products, contraceptives industry players such as Merck & Co., Pfizer, Mayer Laboratories, Cooper Surgical Inc., Teva Pharmaceutical Industries, Actavis, Reckitt Benckiser, and Church & Dwight Co. have also been heavily investing in research and development activities, thereby impelling this business sphere.

Numerous other geographies across the globe have also been making efforts toward population control, impacting contraceptives market share by extension. The South African government for example, deploys several development policies such as population development programs, family planning programs, and fertility regulations which has been considerably affecting product demand. The robustly rising awareness regarding the ever-growing population is thus slated to propel contraceptives industry size, forecast to exceed USD 35 billion by 2024.

It is undeniable that hearing aids are the most convenient clinical intervention for hearing deficiencies, subject to which it has procured maximum of the audiology devices industry share in 2016. However, it has been observed that recent technological advancements have led to an increasing deployment of alternative hearing devices. Growing awareness and utilization of cochlear implantation (CI) can be majorly attributed to this fundamental aspect, driven by its cost-effective outcome-based solutions.

It is imperative to mention here that the utilization rate of cochlear implantation in major part of the world is higher for children than geriatric populace. The trend is synonymous for the U.S. audiology devices market where the utilization rate among children having appropriate audiological profile is nearly 50%. Whereas it is less than 5% for the adult profile. When being surveyed on a much larger base of adults than children who suffer from profound hearing loss, it has been observed that cochlear implantation surgeries in the country cover 60% adults and 40% children. Despite the fact that this technology has received FDA approval long back, experts believe dearth of proper awareness campaigns is somewhat hindering its full-fledged optimization in audiology devices market.

Nonetheless, the ongoing research activities is certain to open new doors of opportunities for audiology devices market, through which unconventional hearing device manufacturers seem to garner profits. Add to it, growing geriatric populace vulnerable to hearing deficits is bound to create massive demand for product innovation in the marketplace. In this regard, experts claim, implementation of stringent regulatory norms related to hearing devices will have a significant impact on the product development. In terms of profitability potential, Global Market Insights, Inc. forecasts audiology devices industry size to surpass USD 10 billion by 2024.
