Report Code: HCR 0905 Report Format: PDF + Excel

Hospital Infection Therapeutics Market Overview

The Hospital Infection Therapeutics Market Size is estimated to reach $14.9 billion by 2027 and is poised to grow at a CAGR of 4.5% over the forecast period of 2022-2027. Hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) are one of the most common causes of death worldwide. Nosocomial infections or Healthcare-Associated Infections are other terms used for it. The risk factors for HAI include immunosuppression, older age, length of stay in the hospital, multiple underlying comorbidities, frequent visits to healthcare facilities, mechanical ventilatory support, recent invasive procedures, indwelling devices, and stay in an intensive care unit (ICU). Catheter-associated urinary tract infections, central line-associated bloodstream infections, surgical site infections, ventilator-associated pneumonia, hospital-acquired pneumonia, and Clostridium difficile infections are the major six types of Hospital-acquired infections. Productive cough, shortness of breath, stomach discomfort, rebound tenderness, changed mental status, palpitations, suprapubic pain, polyuria, dysuria, and costovertebral angle tenderness are all signs of Hospital-acquired infections. Each year the top 5 healthcare-associated infections result in about $9.8 billion in costs, with surgical site infections leading the cause as per a research article present in National Center for Biotechnology Information in May 2022. To lower the occurrence of hospital-acquired illnesses, several hospitals have implemented infection tracking and surveillance systems as well as robust preventative methods. Various drugs like antibiotics drugs, antifungal drugs, antiviral drugs, and antiinfective agents are used to treat this type of infection. Furthermore, Research and Development by key market players and FDA-approved drugs such as Recarbrio (a combination of imipenem-cilastatin and relebactam) treat hospital-acquired bacterial pneumonia and ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia (HABP/VABP) in patients 18 years of age and older.

Hospital Infection Therapeutics Market Segment Analysis- By Drug Type

The Hospital Infection Therapeutics Market based on drug type can be further segmented into Antibiotics Drugs, Antifungal Drugs, Antiviral Drugs, and Others. The Antibiotics Drugs segment held a dominant market share in the year 2021 and is estimated to grow with the fastest CAGR rate of 5.1% over the forecast period 2022-2027. This is owing to the majority of Hospital Acquired Infections caused by bacteria. Hence, for any type of hospital-acquired infection, antibacterial therapy is the first line of defense. Antibiotics must be administered to all patients infected with gram-positive and gram-negative pathogens. In June 2022, FDA cleared the VITEK 2 AST-Gram Negative Omadacycline, a new antibiotic for the treatment of community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP) and acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI). Owing to such innovative drugs launched by key market players help to fuel the Hospital Infection Therapeutics Market Share over the forecast period 2022-2027. 

Hospital Infection Therapeutics Market Segment Analysis- By Infection Type

Hospital Infection Therapeutics Market based on the infection type can be further segmented into Bloodstream Infections, Pneumonia, Surgical Site Infections, Urinary Tract Infections, Gastrointestinal Disorders, and Other Hospital Infections. The Surgical Site Infections (SSI) segment held a dominant market share in the year 2021. Surgical Site Infections occurred in 2% to 4% of all patients who undergo inpatient surgical procedures according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. According to Agency for Health Care Research and Quality (AHRQ) data, nearly 10 million patients have surgical operations as inpatients each year, accounting for more than a quarter of all hospital stays which increases the risk of infection. Such a large number of Surgical Site Infection cases aid the growth of the Hospital Infection Therapeutics market size and also Hospital Infection Therapeutics Market Share. 

However, the Urinary Tract Infections segment is estimated to grow with the fastest CAGR rate of 5.3% over the forecast period 2022-2027. As Urinary Tract Infection is caused at any life stage from children, and adults to elderly people. Women a person with a urinary catheter is at high risk for Urinary Tract Infection. According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, Urinary Tract Infection is responsible for 13,000 deaths each year, and approximately 12%-16% of adult hospital inpatients will have an indwelling urinary catheter (IUC) at some time during their hospitalization. Such high chances of Urinary Tract Infections assist to grow Hospital Infection Therapeutics Market Share over the forecast period 2022-2027.

Hospital Infection Therapeutics Market Segment Analysis- By Geography

The Hospital Infection Therapeutics Market based on Geography can be further segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, South America, and the Rest of the World. North America held a dominant market share of 35% in the year 2021. This is the result of the high prevalence of Hospital Acquired Infections, an increase in the demand for antifungal drugs and antiviral drugs, and the launch of novel Hospital Acquired Therapeutic drugs in this region. Also, the strong dominance of key market players such as GlaxoSmithKline Plc, F. Hoffmann-La Roche AG., Allergan Plc, and Bayer AG is further anticipated to grow the Hospital Infection Therapeutics Market Size in this region. 

Furthermore, Asia-Pacific is estimated to grow with the fastest CAGR rate of 5.5% over the forecast period 2022-2022. This is owing to hospital-associated infections (HAI) being one of the significant causes of morbidity and mortality in Asia-Pacific according to the report Regional Strategy for Patient Safety (2016–2025), WHO South-East Asia. Also, according to the Asian Journal of Research in Infectious Diseases research published in January 2022, most hospital-acquired infections are found in low-income countries.
