Pathogenic microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, parasites, or fungi cause infectious diseases. Diseases can be transmitted either directly or indirectly from one person to another, from infected or non-sterile surgical or medical devices used to treat a person, or from being in an infected environment of any healthcare facility. As a result, infection control emerges as a preventable measure to combat this infection. Factors such as rising hospital-acquired infection rates, an increase in surgical procedures, an increase in chronic diseases associated with an ageing population, and a growing medical device reprocessing industry are expected to drive the global Infection Control Market. However, concerns regarding the safety of reprocessed instruments may hinder the growth of the overall infection control market during the forecast period.
