Market Insights and Analyst View:

Home infusion therapy involves the intravenous or subcutaneous administration of drugs or biologicals to an individual at home. The components needed to perform home infusion include the drug (antivirals, immune globulin), equipment (a pump), and supplies (tubing and catheters). The home infusion process typically requires coordination among multiple entities, including patients, physicians, hospital discharge planners, health plans, home infusion pharmacies, and, if applicable, home health agencies. The increasing incidences of chronic disorders and rising geriatric population are boosting the home infusion therapy market growth.

Growth Drivers and Challenges:

Chronic disorders such as cardiovascular, nutritional, and gastrointestinal disorders, rheumatoid arthritis, and neurological disorders affect the overall quality of life. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), over 50% of the global population is estimated to suffer from at least one chronic disease. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) stated that 6 out of 10 people in the US suffered from at least one chronic disease in 2019. According to the “Worldwide Prevalence and Burden of Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders, Results of Rome Foundation Global Study,” a large-scale multinational study published in 2021, ~40% of 73,076 adults surveyed from 33 countries in the world were suffering from a functional gastrointestinal disorder (GFID). Age-related gastrointestinal problems are more common in the elderly population, aged 64 and above. Per the study titled “Gastrointestinal problem among Indian adults: Evidence from Longitudinal Aging Study in India”, published in 2022, self-reported gastrointestinal disorders prevalence was reported at ~18%. The study also mentions that varying rates of gastrointestinal problems have been observed across the world, ranging from 14% in Iran to 54% in some western countries.

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), especially the cases associated with hectic lifestyles, are a significant cause of mortality globally. According to the International Diabetes Federation (IDF), 537 million people worldwide, aged 20–79, had diabetes in 2021, and the number is estimated to rise to 783 million by 2045. Additionally, diabetes was the cause of 6.7 million deaths worldwide in 2021. According to the Neurological Alliance, ~14.7 million neurological cases were registered in 2019, with at least 1 in 6 people suffering from 1 or more neurological conditions.

Aging can cause a consistent loss of physiological integrity, resulting in a reduction in functionality and an increased risk of mortality. The degradation of body function is a key risk factor for contracting the majority of chronic diseases, including diabetes, CVD, and neurological diseases, among elderly patients. According to the Global Ageing Survey 2019, the frequency of a person aged 65 or above is likely to increase from 1 in every 11 inhabitants in 2019 to 1 in every 6 inhabitants by 2025. As per the US Census Bureau, the number of Americans with age 65 and above is anticipated to double from 46 million in 2016 to over 98 million by 2060, and the share of the elderly population in the global population will increase from 15% to ~24% in the same period. Moreover, except in Africa, the pace of aging will be high in all regions, having nearly a quarter or more of their population aged 60 and above by 2050. Thus, the rising incidence of chronic conditions, coupled with the growing geriatric population, drives the growth of the home infusion therapy market.

However, In the last few years, medical agencies have received many reports of adverse events involving infusion pumps which led to product recalls. The main reason for infusion pump product recalls are software-related problems, user interface issues, and mechanical and electrical failures. For instance, In April 2022, Smiths Medical recalled more than 118,000 Medfusion syringe infusion pumps (model-3500 and 4000) due to software malfunction, causing serious patient harm or death because of under or over-infusion, or delayed delivery of critical medications to patients. It caused about seven serious injuries and one death. Similarly, In December 2020, the FDA announced the Class 1 recall of more than half a million Baxter Sigma infusion pumps due to a defective alarm that caused 3 patient deaths and 51 serious injuries. Thus, the safety concerns associated with home infusion procedures and recalls of infusion pumps hinder the growth of the home infusion therapy market.
