Market Insights and Analyst View:

Speech disorder is a condition in which the patient has a problem in forming or creating particular speech sounds required to communicate with others easily. Whereas, in language disorder, the person cannot understand the message or meaning the other person is trying to convey or has difficulty in expressing their thought properly. Speech and language disorders may sometimes occur due to behavioral or emotional disorders. Although these disorders are being addressed with various therapies in developed parts of the world, there is a significant shortage of healthcare professionals in underdeveloped or remote areas, which is hampering the speech and language disorders market growth.

Growth Drivers and Challenges:

The growing prevalence of speech and language disorders and the increasing number of cases of neurodegenerative diseases and strokes drive the speech and language disorders market growth. According to the data published by The Stuttering Foundation, more than 80 million people, or 1% of the total global population, stutter. As per the same source, about 5% of all children stutter for approximately 6 months or more, and about 1% of these children stutter beyond the average timeframe for a long period.

In addition, as per the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Diseases, the prevalence of speech sound disorders, such as articulation disorder and phonological disorder, is about 8%-–9% in young children, and about 3.3% of the total US children aged between 3- and 17 years have language disorders. Thus, the increasing prevalence of speech and language disorders, such as articulation disorders, phonological disorders, and stuttering, globally is driving the market growth. Further, the use of artificial intelligence for speech and language therapy is expected to bring new speech and language disorder market trends in the coming years.
