Meningitis is the inflammation of the spinal and brain cord membrane caused by bacterial or viral infection. Viral infection is most commonly caused by a virus such as enteroviruses, mumps virus, and herpes simplex virus. Bacterial infection is rare but can be fatal if not treated, and is caused by bacteria such as Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) bacteria, pneumococcal bacteria, and meningococcal bacteria. According to an article published on 30th September 2021 in BMC, about 1.2 million bacterial meningitis cases are estimated globally every year in Africa.
The infection has emerged to be a global concern due to its long-term consequences and death rates that have the potential to cause an epidemic. The government is providing active support to establish sophisticated meningitis diagnostic test methods and treatment options to eradicate the disease. For instance, National Center for Disease Control provides referral diagnoses for various infectious diseases such as meningitis, malaria, and tuberculosis among others that are not available in medical colleges and hospitals. Thus, government initiatives to support meningitis diagnostic tests are anticipated to boost market growth during the forecast period.
Furthermore, the rising prevalence of HIV/AIDS and infectious diseases are expanding the growth prospects of meningitis diagnostic tests. According to WHO in 2021, about 1.5 million people were diagnosed with HIV and 6,50,000 people died due to HIV & related diseases. In addition, according to CDC in 2019, 7.2 million people visited physicians with parasitic and infectious diseases and 3.4 million people visited the emergency department for the diagnosis of infectious diseases.
Moreover, growing technological advancements and increasing healthcare sector developments are driving market growth. For instance, in July 2022, Abacus Diagnostica launched a CE-marked GenomEra PCR assay kit to aid healthcare professionals in the diagnosis of the four most cost common viruses causing infection, in 70 minutes. This PCR kit avoids the use of unnecessary antibiotics and helps start proper treatment immediately. Similarly, in 2020 BioFire Diagnostics launched the FilmArray ME panel in Taiwan designed to detect 14 pathogens that cause disease frequently and was approved for reimbursement in 2021. Such technological advancements are increasing the accuracy of meningitis diagnostic tests at early stages and are expected to boost market growth.
The market is segmented by test type, end-user, and region. The type segment includes latex agglutination tests, lateral flow assay, PCR assay, ELISA tests, culture test, and others. The end-user segment includes hospitals, diagnostic centers, and others.
