Hospital-acquired infections (HAIs), also known as nosocomially acquired infections, may develop in a variety of settings, including hospitals, long-term care institutions, and ambulatory settings, and they can also appear after discharge. HAIs can also involve occupational infections that affect healthcare workers. Key factors driving the hospital acquired infection treatment market growth are high prevalence of HAIs and growing focus on patient safety and quality care. However, the threat of antimicrobial resistance hinders hospital acquired infection treatment market growth.
Central line-associated bloodstream infections, catheter-associated urinary tract infections, and ventilator-associated pneumonia are a few examples of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). These infections, known as surgical site infections, can also arise at surgical sites. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) report “2020 National and State Healthcare-Associated Infections Progress Report" published in 2021, cases of central line-associated bloodstream infections, Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteremia, and ventilator-associated events increased by 24%, 35%, and 15%, respectively, in the US between 2019 and 2020.
Furthermore, According to the January 2022 report from the National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN), urinary tract infections (UTIs) are the fifth most common type of healthcare-associated infection. UTIs account for more than 9.5% of acute care hospital conditions. Catheter-Associated Urinary Tract Infection (CAUTI) is caused by urinary catheters used to drain urine from the bladder. CAUTI is one of the most frequent infections among hospitalized UTIs patients. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), nearly 75% of infections are related to a urinary catheter. During their hospital stays, 15% to 25% of hospitalized patients need to use urinary catheters. Prolonged urinary catheter use is the most major risk factor for getting CAUTI. CAUTI complications entail patient suffering, prolonged hospital stays, increased treatment costs, and even death.
Furthermore, according to the CDC, UTIs are responsible for more than 13,000 deaths each year. Acute uncomplicated cystitis causes around six days of discomfort, resulting in ∼7 million office visits every year at a cost of US$ 1.6 billion. As a result, rising number of HAI cases places a significant financial burden on the healthcare system. The increasing prevalence of CAUTI, combined with the increased demand for drugs for treatment, is propelling the market.
However, antimicrobial resistance poses a significant challenge to HAI treatment, limiting the efficacy of existing antimicrobial agents and necessitating the development of novel treatment strategies and antimicrobial alternatives to combat resistant pathogens effectively.
