Disinfection Cap Market Growing with Rising Focus on Infection Prevention in Healthcare

The global disinfection cap market size is expected to reach USD 484.0 million by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 3.8% from 2023 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Increasing prevalence of hospital acquired diseases and rising hospital admissions are the key driving factors for the market. Hospital-acquired Infections (HAIs), also known as nosocomial infections, are primarily found in patients receiving long-term treatment, especially surgical treatment. It can occur in hospitals, surgical centers, clinics, ambulatory surgical centers, and long-term care facilities such as rehabilitation facilities and nursing homes.

Generally, children, geriatric populations, and patients with low immunity are prone to HAIs. Factors such as use of indwelling catheters, lack of proper hygiene in the healthcare setting, and excessive use of antibiotics can increase the risk of HAIs in patients. Increasing cases of HAIs due to lack of sanitation and precaution is a key factor anticipated to propel the growth of the market for disinfection caps over the forecast period. According to a CDC report in 2018, around 1.7 million cases of HAIs and around 99,000 associated deaths are reported each year in American hospitals.

As per a report published by European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) in 2018, prevalence of HAIs in European countries was around 7.1%. It also reported that around 4,131,000 patients suffer from HAIs in Europe each year. Such cases are expected to increase the demand for disinfection caps. It is used to disinfect IV connectors and eliminate bacteria and other microorganisms. Such solutions are required in hospitals to maintain proper hygiene and sanitation, thereby lowering the risk of HAIs, which is anticipated to propel market growth over the forecast period.
