Bacteria, parasites, viruses, and fungus are harmful microorganisms that cause infectious diseases. It can be passed from one person to another directly or indirectly. Some of the most frequent signs and symptoms of infectious disorders are fever, muscle soreness, diarrhoea, and exhaustion. Depending on the organism that is causing the illness, these symptoms may differ. Vaccination can prevent many illnesses, including measles and chicken pox. Antibiotics, antifungal, and antiparasitic medications are used to treat these infections.
Rapid diagnosis of an infection benefits patient by facilitating timely access to care and also reduces the probability of disease transmission. Moreover, point-of-care tests help to improve the management of infectious diseases in settings wherein access to quality and timely medical care is difficult. Recent developments in the delivery of healthcare services and diagnostic technology have resulted in an increase in demand for POCT in primary and community care services.
North America dominates the global point-of-care (POC) infectious disease diagnostics market due to rising incidence of infectious diseases in the region. Asia is expected to show high growth rates in the next five years in this market. China and India are projected to be the fastest growing markets in the region. The key driving forces for the point-of-care infectious disease diagnostics market in developing countries are the large pool of patients, increasing awareness about diseases, improving healthcare infrastructure, and rising government funding in these countries.
