Ultrasound Probe Disinfection Market
Global Ultrasound Probe Disinfection Market Size to Reach $936 Million by 2030
[London, United Kingdom] – [1st June 2023] – The global ultrasound probe disinfection market size is expected to reach $936 million by 2030, according to a new report by Pharmanucleus. The market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 13.3% from 2023 to 2030.
Ultrasound probe disinfection is the process of cleaning and disinfecting ultrasound probes to prevent the spread of infection from one patient to another. Ultrasound probes are semi-critical medical devices that come into contact with patient skin and mucous membranes. They can become contaminated with bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens during use. If these pathogens are not properly removed, they can be transferred to the next patient, increasing the risk of infection.
There are a number of factors driving the growth of the ultrasound probe disinfection market, including:
- The increasing use of ultrasound imaging: Ultrasound imaging is a non-invasive and painless procedure that is used to diagnose a wide range of medical conditions. The use of ultrasound imaging is increasing worldwide, due to factors such as the aging population, the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, and the rising cost of healthcare.
- The growing awareness of the importance of infection control: Healthcare providers are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of infection control. This is due to the rising rates of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs), which are infections that patients acquire while receiving healthcare services.
- The development of new ultrasound probe disinfection technologies: New ultrasound probe disinfection technologies are being developed that are more effective and efficient than traditional methods. These new technologies are helping to improve the safety of ultrasound imaging and reduce the risk of HAIs.
The ultrasound probe disinfection market is segmented by product, process, end-user, and region. By product, the market is segmented into instruments, services, and consumables. Instruments are the most common type of ultrasound probe disinfection product. They are used to clean and disinfect ultrasound probes using a variety of methods, such as ultrasonic cleaning, chemical disinfection, and steam sterilization. Services are provided by healthcare professionals who are trained in the proper use of ultrasound probe disinfection products. Consumables are used in conjunction with instruments and services to clean and disinfect ultrasound probes. These consumables include cleaning wipes, disinfectant wipes, and alcohol pads.
By process, the market is segmented into high-level disinfection and intermediate/low-level disinfection. High-level disinfection is the process of using a chemical disinfectant to kill all bacteria, viruses, and fungi on an ultrasound probe. Intermediate/low-level disinfection is the process of using a chemical disinfectant to kill most bacteria and some viruses on an ultrasound probe.
By end-user, the market is segmented into hospitals, diagnostic imaging centers, and clinics. Hospitals are the largest end-user segment for ultrasound probe disinfection products. This is due to the high volume of ultrasound procedures performed in hospitals. Diagnostic imaging centers are the second-largest end-user segment. Clinics are the smallest end-user segment, but they are expected to experience steady growth in the coming years.
The global ultrasound probe disinfection market is dominated by a few major players, including [Company 1], [Company 2], and [Company 3]. These companies offer a wide range of ultrasound probe disinfection products and services.
The ultrasound probe disinfection market is a dynamic and growing market. The market is being driven by a number of factors, including the increasing use of ultrasound imaging, the growing awareness of the importance of infection control, and the development of new ultrasound probe disinfection technologies. The market is expected to experience significant growth in the coming years.
