Market Definition of Middle East Molecular Point of Care Testing (using NAAT) Market
POCT is characterized as testing which can be done close to the patient where a medical decision can be made immediately, including the results and monitoring. POCT devices now entering clinical use are based on nucleic acid amplification technologies (NAAT), defined here as second-generation devices. These platforms generally have improved sensitivity, typically 60 to 90%, compared to first-generation POCTs, and require portable instrumentation with a footprint of approximately 30cm x 30cm. These instruments are essentially used in molecularly detecting various disorders such as HIV, HPV, and respiratory disease through NAAT technology. NAAT is Nucleic Acid Amplification Techniques that allow the identification of pathogenic organisms by detecting their DNA or RNA.
In the worldwide pandemic, attempt to synergize the sensitivity of NAATs and the ease of use of POCT assays, miniaturized NAAT-based POCT devices and assays were devised for faster screening and diagnosis of COVID-19, which also propelled the growth of the market.
Middle East Molecular Point of Care Testing (using NAAT) Market Dynamics
This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints, and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail below:
Drivers
- INCREASE IN PREVALENCE OF CHRONIC DISEASES
It is a common fact that health degeneration starts with an increase in age. As the rate of chronic disease grows with time, the factors associated with the disease rates also increase. The high number of obese/ overweight population also has increased the prevalence of chronic diseases in various regions across the globe. The rise in the number of chronic diseases similar to HPV, STI, and TB, among more, has led to people opting for NAAT-based point-of-care and products for testing. Therefore, this will drive the growth of the Middle East molecular point of care testing (using NAAT) market in the coming years.
- IMPROVEMENT IN DIAGNOSIS-SEEKING RATE
With the increase in the successful diagnosis of chronic diseases, including cancer, anemia, type 2 diabetes, and others, the improved health care professionals provide regular training sessions for the professionals for conducting tests in account for the improvement of diagnosis rate in the region. With the increase in the burden of diseases, the diagnosis rate is also increasing. With the advancements in the diagnosis, the rate is also growing for people going through the diagnosis.
- RISE IN PREFERENCE FOR HOMECARE TESTING
Home healthcare preferences make clinical information available at the right place and time. It will also help in reducing error and increasing safety with ensured quality. They also help elders in the case of a medical emergency. Many strategic changes have been made in health care to address point-of-care testing benefits. As per the World Health Organization (WHO), the number of people aged 65 and above is expected to rise from an estimated 524 million in 2010 to approximately 1.5 billion in 2050, with developed countries accounting for the majority of the increase.
Opportunities
- STRATEGIC INITIATIVES TAKEN BY MARKET PLAYERS
An increase in the burden of chronic and non-chronic disease globally coupled with the rise in the geriatric population in Africa and Asia has created more demand for the development of new kits and solutions for molecular point-of-care testing with better efficacy and less time consumption. To provide diagnosis and screening in this region, the players in the market undergo partnership and agreement with each other to provide quality care through kits and instruments to the Middle East population.
- RisE IN Healthcare Expenditure
Increasing healthcare expenditure and infrastructure can help patients take hassle-free advanced treatment to receive better diagnoses, procedures, and treatment for fast recovery. Point-of-care testing devices are beneficial for detecting various diseases and supporting treatment plans using POC software and solutions. Healthcare spending comprises out-of-pocket payments (people paying for their care), government expenditure, and sources including health insurance and activities by non-governmental organizations.
Restraints/Challenges
- HIGH COST OF PRODUCTS
The point-of-care testing products require a substantial considerable cost for the development process. As the concept needs to be locked down, the materials must be sourced, and it is essential to consider lead times. Additionally, the process is time-consuming as the device design needs sufficient time to fully mature before bringing to the market for use.
- LACK OF ALIGNMENT WITH TEST RESULTS OBTAINED FROM LABORATORIES
When compared with the results of laboratory testing standards, the NAAT testing results differ. Laboratory testing is more advanced, follows the process, protocol, and science for laboratory testing, and fully integrates with the technology necessary to analyze, validate, and document effects accurately. However, POCT/NAAT is undoubtedly associated with a lack of precise results. Molecular POCT cannot complete the standardization, and other critical criteria cannot achieve the standardization and different essential standards. It is a significant challenge for the Middle East molecular point of care testing market. The PoC tests might sometimes provide erroneous results and suffers test results variability.
