Preterm Birth and PROM Testing Market Size, Share, Growth, Trends, Consumption, Revenue, Company Analysis, Regional Insights and Forecast 2021-2028

According to Vision Research Reports, the global preterm birth and PROM testing market size was valued at US$ 170 Mn in 2020 and is anticipated expand at a CAGR of 9% from 2021 to 2027.

Global preterm birth and PROM testing market size is expected to surpass around at US$ 310 Mn in 2028.

Increase in number of preterm births, growth of the medical diagnostics industry in emerging economies in regions such as Asia Pacific, and adoption of latest technologies and techniques to access or diagnose preterm births are projected to augment the global market between 2021 and 2028.

Increase in Preterm Births to Propel Market

Sedentary lifestyle along with several other factors has led to increase in preterm births, which has become a major concern in the past few years. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), nearly 15 million babies are born early every year i.e., around 1 in every 10 babies is preterm. Moreover, complications due to premature births result in fatal outcomes in approximately 1 million cases. One of the major causes of such complications is premature rupture of membranes (PROM), which accounts for roughly 30% of all preterm births. The global preterm birth and PROM testing market is expected to be driven by increase in incidence of such complications during the forecast period.

Rise in Demand for Point-of-Care Testing Devices to Present Significant Opportunities

Increase in demand for effective and early diagnosis and reduction in false positive tests for diagnosis of premature births and PROM drive adoption of point-of-care testing devices. Moreover, high adoption of these devices can be attributed to reduced risk of misdiagnosis, ease of usage, and high sensitivity. Point-of-care testing devices have also assisted in reducing the chances of complications due to preterm births by enabling diagnosis at early stages and allowing health care providers to offer immediate care to mother and fetus at early stages of pregnancy.

Lack of Awareness about Preterm Births to Restrain Market

Lack of awareness about preterm births and PROM could lead to longer hospital stays and preventable expenditure from the perspective of patients. Additionally, lack of awareness about availability of latest technologies available for diagnosis of premature births, resulting in delayed diagnosis and treatment is one of the major factors hampering the growth of the market.

Based on test type, the global preterm birth and PROM testing market has been bifurcated into preterm birth tests and PROM tests. The preterm birth tests segment has been classified into pelvic exam, ultrasound, uterine monitoring, and biomarkers. The PROM tests segment has been categorized into nitrazine test, ferning test, pooling, ultrasound, fetal fibronectin test, biomarkers, and others. Increase in the number of preterm births, high incidence of preterm births, rise in the number of specialty clinics, and easy detection of preterm birth through PROM tests are expected to augment the segment. In terms of revenue, the preterm birth tests segment dominated the global preterm birth and PROM testing market. However, availability of other tests in the market is likely to hamper the growth of the segment.

In terms of end-user, the global preterm birth and PROM testing market has been divided into hospitals, diagnostic laboratories, and others. Increase in awareness about specialty treatments is a key driver of the diagnostic laboratories segment. Additionally, surge in demand for preterm diagnostic services and rise in the number of diagnostic procedures such as ultrasound and pelvic examinations for pregnant women are anticipated to propel the segment. The others segment is likely to witness strong growth during the forecast period due to shift of treatment toward nursing homes and specialized clinics.

Asia Pacific Market to Grow at a Rapid Pace

In terms of revenue, the preterm birth and PROM testing market in Asia Pacific is projected to expand at a high CAGR during the forecast period. Increase in awareness about the availability of point-of-care testing devices and rise in technology penetration are expected to boost the demand for these diagnostic techniques. Furthermore, surge in awareness about women’s health and increase in expenditure on health care in the region are anticipated to present lucrative opportunities in the market in the next few years.

In terms of region, the global preterm birth and PROM testing market has been segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. Presence of key players, increase in demand for preterm birth testing, and rise in preterm birth rates are factors boosting the growth of the market in North America. Technological advancements, rise in the number of approvals for preterm and PROM tests from the European Commission, and increase in demand for preterm birth diagnostic tests propel the preterm birth and PROM testing market in Europe. Focus on early diagnosis of women’s health problems, rise in government initiatives toward maternal health, and increase in the number of preterm births are the major factors driving the market in Asia Pacific. Growth of the market in Latin America is attributed to rapid adoption of new technologies, increase in use of point-of-care testing devices & tools, and rise in the number of players offering products in the market. Additionally, surge in awareness about product offerings for preterm birth and PROM testing is expected to augment the market in Latin America during the forecast period.

Major players operating in the global preterm birth and PROM testing market include QIAGEN, Hologic, Inc., Medix Biochemica, Biosynex, Abbott Laboratories, Clinical Innovations, LLC, Sera Prognostics, Inc., The Cooper Companies, Inc., NX Prenatal, Inc., and IQ Products.
