Hospital-Acquired Infections: Diagnostic Markets and Testing
Developments, Treatments, Key Competitors and Trends
July 1, 2011
A hospital-acquired infection (HAI)is a new infection that develops in a patient during
hospitalization. It is usually defined as an infection that is identified at least forty-eight to
seventy-two hours following admission, so infections incubating, but not clinically
apparent, at admission are excluded. This type of infection is also known as a
nosocomial infection (or more generically healthcare-associated infections).
The following market data is provided in this report:
Market for HAI Diagnostics
Forecast for HAI Diagnostics to 2015
HAI Tests on the Market
Market for Diagnostics by Infection Type (C. Diff., MRSA, Pneumonia,
Other)
Molecular HAI Market vs. Conventional HAI Market, Present and in 2015
Geographic Breakdown of Testing (U.S., Europe, Asia, ROW)
New Hospital Infection Product Testing Products in the Market
Company Profiles
Treatment Products on the Market, HAI Antibiotic market Size and Forecast
Both diagnostics and treatment segments have unique circumstances for growth which
are discussed in detail in the report. Worldwide, both segments combined are worth
more than $9 billion for 2010 with 2015 sales expected to reach $10.3 billion. The
market has shown an increase of 3% annually with sales increasing from $7.9 billion in
2005. Although the treatment segment will continue to struggle to maintain growth, the
testing segment will offset declines beginning in 2012.
This report primarily focuses on bacterial nosocomial infections with some mention of
viral infections. The major consideration is given to bacterial nosocomial infections
because a) they are the most frequent type of infections spread in the hospital setting,
and b) the practical aspects of diagnosis and therapy are more meaningful based both
on medical considerations and on market considerations.
2. Some of the issues discussed in this report include:
Development of Potential Life-Saving Products
Development of Fast Testing Systems
Growing Drug Resistance
Development of Better Pharmacodiagnostics
Market Opportunity and Growth Rates Expected in Diagnostics versus
Treatment
Hospital Procedures for Use of Testing and Antibiotics
Attention to Special Population Issues
Demographics and Epidemiology
New Government Guidelines and Requirements for Preventing Infection
Focus on Alliances and Partnerships
Market analysis in this report considers primarily the epidemiological considerations and
the size of patient groups both in the United States and globally, where available. We
have accumulated the most recent data available, understanding that virtually no
organization does extensive studies on these applications on a regular basis. Many
studies are highly localized and may only apply to a community, state or country (more
often countries that are not a part of the major markets for nosocomial diagnostic and
therapeutic products). In many instances, we have had to draw from broader
epidemiologic data, that is, on data that reach outside of the hospital environment in
order to try and construct a picture of the nosocomial testing and treatment needs.
The primary focus of this report is on the bacterial form of nosocomial infections, and
those with significant impact on the hospital setting and markets. In looking at these
infections, we consider the diagnostic and therapeutic technologies that are currently
available and attempt to project trends in these product areas. To some extent, we are
limited by the activity of the industries associated with the diagnosis and treatment of
these infections. For the most part, these activities are limited and the advanced
technologies seen in other areas of medical application are not necessarily present in
terms of microbiology.
The analysis presented in this report is based on data from a combination of company,
government, industry, institutional and private sources. It includes information from
extensive literature reviews and discussions with experts in the field, including
microbiologists, pathologists, hospital authorities, research scientists, business
development managers and marketing managers.
Companies profiled in this report are:
Abbott Laboratories
AdvanDX
Alere
AstraZeneca
Bayer Schering Pharma

Cepheid
Cubist
Daiichi Sankyo
Gen-Probe
GlaxoSmithKline

Additional Information
New York, July 14, 2011-- When a Hospital-acquired infection (HAI) is suspected,
hospitals need results quickly, which is good news for innovative diagnostic test makers,
notes healthcare market research firm Kalorama Information. In its recent report,
Hospital-Acquired Infections: Diagnostic Markets and Testing Developments,
Treatments, Key Competitors and Trends, Kalorama predicts the combined world
market for testing and treatment products for HAI will reach $10.3 billion in 2015, up
from $9 billion in 2010, with higher growth experienced in the testing segment.
Kalorama's report finds nosocomial infections are an inherent part of any healthcare
system and have a 5% infection rate of the 40 million hospital visits a year, causing
100,000 deaths in the U.S. annually. In an effort to decrease the rate of fatality,
hospitals are shifting focus towards rapid discovery and treatment of nosocomial
infections, driving sales of testing products.
"The growth opportunities are in testing," said Bruce Carlson, publisher of Kalorama
Information. "The treatment market is slowing down, with a little growth in the future,
which will be dominated by established pharmaceutical companies."
Specific nosocomial infections that are candidates for testing innovation, include
Pneumonia, which comprises nearly 20% of all HAIs with 300,000 cases annually and
has an associated mortality rate of 30-70%, as well as MRSA, which accounts for nearly
20,000 deaths a year. According to Kalorama, 20-30% of these infections are
preventable through intensive hygiene and control programs and the remaining 70-80%
through more involved measures, such as hospital architecture and air sanitation and
the use of disposable equipment and supplies.
4. "Everyone is interested in faster tests and immediate results," added Carlson. "Although
the rate of infection won't change, quicker turnover will improve patient outcome and
drive down mortality rates."
Kalorama Information's report, Hospital-Acquired Infections: Diagnostic Markets
and Testing Developments, Treatments, Key Competitors and Trends, reveals the
world market for HAI diagnostic and treatment markets, providing segmented market
data for molecular and conventional testing. It also covers the development of new
testing systems and products and provides an analysis on growing drug resistance.
