SEGMENTAL ANALYSIS

Global Diabetes Devices Market Analysis By Type

The insulin delivery systems segment held the major share of the global diabetes devices market in 2023. Under this segment, the insulin pens segment had the largest share due to the increasing use of these pens suffering from a high level of blood sugar. These insulin pens come preloaded with insulin of the patient's required amount to be prescribed by the doctor. These are very easy to use on their own. Many manufacturers are focusing on different designs of insulin pens with different colors coded according to the patient's level of sugar levels. These pens are portable and have been designed with advanced applications to help remind the last injected insulin and the time to take the insulin shot.

Most sales of diabetes devices worldwide happen to disposable pens, insulin pumps, and blood glucose test strips. These devices represent a substantial share of the global diabetes devices market. In the European market for diabetes medications, 21.03% of the income is contributed from the blood glucose strain insulin pump, projected to grow at 5.06% CAGR from 2024 to 2029. The use of insulin pumps has increased in Europe over the years. However, the low frequency of insulin pumps in Europe is due to the lack of diabetic patients.

The glucose monitoring devices segment is anticipated to grow at a healthy CAGR. Increasing the prevalence of effective diabetes management procedures in hospitals and clinics, growing awareness of monitoring glucose levels regularly and shifting trends towards self-medication, and a rise in the demand for point-of-care testing devices are favoring the growth of the glucose monitoring devices segment. Initiatives by the government by increasing campaign programs, especially in rural areas, promote the segment’s growth to an extent.

Under this segment, the hemoglobin AIC testing kits sub-segment is anticipated to grow at a promising CAGR. It measures the amount of glucose bound to the heme found in red blood cells. Healthcare professionals use this test to help diagnose conditions like Diabetes, prediabetes, and gestational Diabetes that cause excessive blood sugar levels. In addition, A1C, also available as home test kits, allows people with type 1 or 2 diabetes to check their hemoglobin.

REGIONAL ANALYSIS

North America held the largest share of global diabetes care products. However, over the past few years, with the exponential increase in the cost related to Diabetes, cost-efficient pen needle development will significantly impact the market for diabetes care devices in North America in the years ahead. In the U.S., most people have type 1 diabetes. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved the first implantable continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) device for diabetes prevention and continuous glucose level monitoring. The device is named Eversense continuous glucose monitoring system and can be used for ages above 18. Real-time continuous glucose monitors are the most recent innovation for diabetes care by the Ontario government's Assistive Devices Program. Diabetes affects nearly 1.5 million Ontarians. Diabetes Canada is increasing the production of real-time continuous glucose monitoring devices for diabetes patients.

Europe is driven by a sudden rise in the number of people affected with Diabetes and high investments in R & D. Also, with increasing awareness among the patients, there is quite a hike in demand for diabetes care devices. In Germany, this diabetes device usage is more due to most children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes. These people use continuous glucose monitoring devices. Therefore, researchers are increasing their focus on providing diabetes devices such as monitoring devices, insulin, and medication-related devices, which drives the market forward. They manufacture different types of devices, and government approval has increased for these devices to prevent or cure Diabetes in suffering people.

APAC region has many opportunities. Europe and Asia-Pacific follow North America's way. China (1.3 billion) and India (1.2 billion), the most populous countries in this region, contribute to the demand for diabetes care devices. According to the International Diabetes Federation, China had the most significant diabetic patients, with around 96.2 million, and India had about 66.8 million diabetic patients. As of 2019, approximately 45% of the global diabetic population is from China and India. Many global diabetes care device companies are interested in investing in these countries. In India, 80 million people have Diabetes, and twenty percent suffer from prediabetes. Several awareness programs have been conducted to empower the Indian people to take control of their Diabetes. To maintain blood glucose levels, everyone should have accurate blood glucose management tools with the latest technology and be easy to use, which drives the market in this region. India has the second-largest diabetes population in the world, and this will be increased in the coming years. India has a high prevalence of prediabetes and undiagnosed Diabetes. In India, people are adopting digital health systems for the wellness and treatment of chronic diseases like Diabetes.
