Blood Transfusion Diagnostics Market Growth & Trends

The global blood transfusion diagnostics market size is expected to reach a value of USD 5.8 billion by 2027 registering a CAGR of 6.6%, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Growing prevalence of chronic diseases, such as anemia, sickle cell disease, hemophilia, cancer, and kidney disease, is significantly driving the market growth. According to the Sickle Cell Disease Coalition statistics, globally, the number of sickle cell disease cases is projected to increase by around 30% by 2050.According to NCBI statistics, liver diseases accounts for around 2 million deaths each year globally. Blood transfusion is crucial for patients with such chronic diseases, as it allows to exchange the diseased cells with the healthy RBCs without disrupting the blood viscosity.

According to the National Blood Transfusion Service (NBTS) database, a total of 60,236 donor screening was done between 2010 and 2016 at the National Blood Transfusion Center (NBTC), Eritrea. Among them, at least 3.6% of the donated blood showed positive results for TTI and 0.1% showed positive results for multiple infections. Some of the chronic infectious diseases, such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C, HIV, and syphilis, create the need for accurate donor screening, thus further driving the market growth of diagnostics. Transfusion is commonly used in cases of trauma, road accidents, surgeries, childbirth, and gastrointestinal bleeding to replace major blood losses.
