Posted July 13, 2022 by mmvaidya01

The research process involved the study of various factors affecting the industry to identify the segmentation types, industry trends, key players, competitive landscape, key market dynamics, and key player strategies.

 
Research Methodologies Followed:

Primary Research:

In the primary research process, various sources from both the supply and demand sides were interviewed to obtain qualitative and quantitative information for this report. Primary sources from the supply side and demand side are detailed below. Industry experts such as CEOs, presidents, vice presidents, directors, marketing directors, marketing managers, and related executives from various key companies and organizations in the organ preservation industry were interviewed to obtain and verify both the qualitative and quantitative aspects of this research study. A robust primary research methodology has been adopted to validate the contents of the report and fill in the gaps.

Secondary Research:

This research study involved the use of comprehensive secondary sources; directories and databases such as D&B, Bloomberg Business, and Factiva; and white papers, annual reports, and companies’ house documents. Secondary research was used to identify and collect information for this extensive, technical, market-oriented, and commercial study of the organ preservation market. It was also used to obtain important information about the top players, market classification, and segmentation according to industry trends to the bottom-most level, geographic markets, technology perspectives, and key developments related to the market. A database of the key industry leaders was also prepared using secondary research.

COVID-19 Impact on Organ Preservation Market:

COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by the most recently discovered novel coronavirus. Largely unknown before the outbreak began in Wuhan (China) in December 2019, COVID-19 has moved from a regional crisis to a global pandemic in just a matter of a few weeks. The World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 as a pandemic on March 11, 2020. The pandemic has disrupted healthcare systems worldwide, with hospitals being overwhelmed due to the increasing influx of patients.

Temporary hospitals were also set up to deal with the growing number of cases. The coronavirus disease has had an impact on all facets of healthcare, including the execution of life-saving procedures like organ transplantation by altering the process of organ donation and recovery. The spread of COVID-19 has profoundly impacted organ donation and transplantation worldwide. It has disrupted these actions and significantly reduced donation and transplant activities across the globe, leading to a decline in the demand for organ preservation products.

In many countries, transplants from deceased donors were limited to only urgent situations and transplants from living donations were put on hold during the period of the outbreak. This resulted in lost opportunities for a large number of vulnerable patients on transplant waiting lists. The pandemic has also resulted in a decrease in the number of potential deceased organ donors, saturation of healthcare systems and ICU capacities, limited access to donor and recipient testing for the infection, and challenges in travel/transport logistics for retrieval teams and donated organs.

Major Growth Influencing Factors:

Driver: Growing geriatric population and subsequent growth in cases of multiple organ failure

Multiple organ failure is among the most common causes of death in ICUs, mainly caused by sepsis. It is estimated that 26–50% of patients diagnosed with sepsis develop acute renal failure, and up to 20% show acute respiratory failure (Source: Society of Critical Care Medicine). The elderly are at a higher risk of acute renal failure due to an age-related decline in the glomerular filtration rate and the renal plasma flow.

Diabetes also increases the vulnerability to these conditions and multiple organ failure. Diseases such as tuberculosis and liver cirrhosis are more common among geriatric individuals and may make it necessary for individuals to undergo organ transplants.

Restraint: High cost of organ transplantation

Organ transplantation is a resource-intensive procedure involving highly paid doctors and surgeons, expensive transportation, and pricey drugs that make it expensive. The charges associated with inpatient care, organ procurement, preservation, post-operative recipient care, and anti-rejection medication increase the overall cost. Patients also need to incur additional costs of traveling, lodging, meals, hospital visits, and other medical testing expenditures for evaluation or follow-ups scheduled at the transplant center for an advised time period of medical supervision. For low-income patients, such expenses directly compete with expenditure on necessities such as food, clothing, and shelter, which often renders organ transplantation procedures inaccessible without external aid.

Challenge: Significant gap between the number of organs donated and organs required annually

Currently, there is a significant gap between the number of organs donated and the number of organs required. In the US, the total number of patients on the waiting list for organs was over 100,000 (106,588 as of January 2022). Only 41,354 transplants were performed by the end of 2021 (Source: Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network, US). The limited number of organs donated annually is mainly due to a lack of awareness related to organ donation, poor legislative measures, and the increased risk of organ trafficking. Governments of various countries are also implementing reformed laws (such as opt-out laws that presume every citizen is an organ donor except for some exempted conditions) and initiatives to encourage people to donate organs.

Opportunity: Growing healthcare investments

Governments across the globe are focusing on strengthening their healthcare infrastructures to provide enhanced healthcare facilities. For example, in India, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation allocated nearly USD 924 million (INR 7,000 crore) or 15% of its 2022–2023 budget to upgrade health services and establish 100 health centers with more than 100 diagnostic tests for preventive and primary treatment in BMC areas. These infrastructural developments will lead to an increased number of hospitals that treat more brain-dead patients who might be suitable donors.

The increasing number of testing laboratories will also improve the time concerned with donor-recipient cross-matching, subject profiling, genotyping, and other related diagnostic tests during the pre-transplantation period. These developments are expected to create new opportunities for the organ preservation market.

Geographical Growth Dynamics:

North America accounted for the largest share of the organ preservation market in 2020

In 2020, North America accounted for the largest share of the market, followed by the Asia Pacific, Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa. The large share of this region can be attributed to factors such as the growing demand for and adoption of organ transplantation as a result of the rising number of chronic diseases such as end-stage diseases. The need for preservation solutions to protect the viability of organs in ex-vivo environments in the region is also a key factor contributing to the large share of North America in the organ preservation market.
