Kidney Dialysis Equipment Market Outlook, Opportunities and Forecasts Report 202Posted by rushi007 on March 7th, 2019 Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a chronic condition that seriously affects the quality of life of the patient. Kidney dialysis is the preferred mode of treatment for severe conditions wherein both kidneys are damage, though the technique is also used occasionally for treatment of patients with just one damaged kidney. Furthermore, there are various renal disorders and normal causes that cause total renal failure. However, there is no single cause that deteriorates the kidney function. The damage is usually irreversible and can lead to life threatening problems. To mitigate such problems, kidney transplant is recommended. This, however, requires the same blood donor of the kidney to maintain the compatibility of the transplant with the other vital organs in the body. In some cases, dialysis or transplantation may become necessary, which can further favor the rise in growth in kidney dialysis equipment market. Diabetes mellitus is considered as the most common cause of chronic kidney disease that may lead to increase in demand for kidney dialysis. According to Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network, in 2008, the average prevalence has been reported at 11% in the U.S. and Europe that are excluding those on dialysis or with a functioning transplant. Growth of geriatric population is one of the major reasons expected to support growth of the kidney dialysis equipment market in the near future. Large number of people in their old age are more prone to suffer from kidney failure. The global kidney dialysis equipment market was valued at US$ 13,930.3 Mn in 2015 and is expected to witness a robust CAGR of 6.6% during the forecast period (2016 – 2024). Download PDF Brochure: https://www.coherentmarketinsights.com/insight/request-pdf/222 Market Dynamics According to the National Kidney Foundation, around 10% of the global population is affected by chronic kidney disease (2015). According to the University of California, incidence of end stage renal disease (ESRD) in the U.S. is 5% annually, while only 20% of kidney donors are available every year. The need for kidney donors in the U.S. is increasing by 8% annually. Globally, Taiwan, U.S., Japan, Mexico, and Belgium are the countries with highest prevalence of ESRD. Considering the staggering statistics of kidney donors and incidence of ESRD and CKD, the dialysis equipment market is poised to grow at a considerable growth during the forecast period. Although market for hemodialysis is high, demand for peritoneal dialysis is increasing as it offers convenience of undergoing the treatment at home. Demographic Shift of major chunk of population towards increasing geriatric population Elderly population are more prone to various disease due to diminished level of immunity and other co-morbid disease conditions. Diabetes mellitus is a very common disorder that is the initiator for various unwanted disease conditions. One of the most frequently arising condition is kidney failure. The unnoticed and improper care of the diabetic patient may lead to abnormal functioning of kidney and in severe cases total shut down of the organ. Kidney dialysis is a process in which an external machine acts as the kidney for the filtration of body fluids. Furthermore, the dialysis works on various sequential methods such as proper testing of vitals of the patient that is necessary for maintaining the appropriate glomerular filtration rate. Dialysis procedure helps in maintaining the proper standards of the body fluids and other important kidney functions such as waste removal, removal of extra water and salt to prevent them from building up in the body that ensure safe level of certain chemicals such as potassium, sodium and bicarbonate in the blood, which helps in controlling the blood pressure.
