Market Dynamics

The rising prevalence of chronic diseases is booting the wearable patch market. For instance, according to the World Health Organization, the chronic disease had risen by 57% in 2020. According to the National Health Council, chronic diseases affect around 133 million Americans, representing more than 45% of the total population in 2018. According to the European Commission, Chronic diseases together account for over 86% of deaths in the European Union. According to World Health Organization (WHO), Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death globally. About 17.9 million people die due to CVD each year, an estimate of 31% of deaths globally. More than 75% of cardiovascular disease deaths occur in lower and middle-income countries. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in 2020, around 34.2 million people have diabetes in the United States. Further, the growing demand for vaccination and immunization is a key driving factor of the market. Vaccination and immunization have raised the demand for syringes in the global market. The outbreak of COVID-19 has raised the demand for vaccination, which will lead to the rising demand for syringes. However, product recall of syringes might hamper the market growth. For instance, Fagron Sterile Services has voluntarily recalled two lots of Neostigmine Methylsulfate 5mL syringes to the user at the hospital and clinic level. Neostigmine Methylsulfate 5mL syringes product lots were recalled because of a customer complaint that some syringe units containing Neostigmine Methylsulfate 1mg/mL, 5mg per 5mL are incorrectly labelled as Neostigmine Methylsulfate 1mg/mL, 3mg per 3mL. Moreover, rising investment for facility expansion to develop syringes would provide lucrative opportunities for the market in coming years.
