U.S. Infection Control Market

U.S. Infection Control Market Size (2024 to 2029)

The size of the infection control market in the United States is predicted to grow at a CAGR of 7.98% from 2024 to 2029.

An increasing number of surgical procedures is one of the major factors promoting the infection control market in the U.S. Some of the most common surgical procedures in the U.S. are carotid endarterectomy, cesarean section, coronary artery bypass, and low back pain surgery. During surgeries, there is a high possibility for infection spread due to the medical devices and the equipment used. In addition, the equipment used for one person should not be used for another person without proper sterilization. If did, that may increase infection in the other person. To avoid such situations, infection control plays a significant role in preventing infection spread to the patient or the health care provider.

Growing awareness around the prevention and control of infection and an increasing number of programs on infection control further propel the infection control market in the U.S. The U.S. government has started several programs to prevent infection spread in healthcare settings. In addition, they give demos of infection control usage benefits in the healthcare setting, which also fast increases patient recovery. However, the government has been strict about following rules for the prevention and control of infection in recent years due to the increase in pandemics in many regions.

Technical advancements in sterilization equipment are also accelerating the growth rate of the infection control market. For example, most U.S. hospitals use sensor-based equipment to clean the surrounding by detecting viruses in certain places, such as patient rooms and operation theatres. As a result, Manu manufacturers are focused on designing products that are handy to remove the infection or to prevent the surrounding from the infection, which helps in not spreading of infection to the surrounding people.

However, the side effects of using a chemical disinfectant are highly concentrated disinfectants that worsen the situation and hamper the market growth. In addition, the lack of awareness of how to use these infection control products and equipment is further inhibiting the growth rate of the infection control market in the U.S.
