The global point of care diagnostics market size was USD 30.87 billion in 2023. The market is projected to grow from USD 31.57 billion in 2024 to USD 51.19 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.2% during the forecast period.


Point of care testing (POCT) refers to testing conducted close to the site of patient care where care or treatment is provided. The increasing prevalence of conditions such as cardiac disorders, diabetes, and infectious diseases, among others, and owing to several benefits such as the potential to generate quick results and efficiency, among others, are leading to a growing number of patients undergoing POCT testing procedures globally. According to 2021 data published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), there are approximately 38.4 million people with diabetes in the U.S. 


Along with this, the rising focus of the players operating in the market on developing and introducing products with advanced technology and features in various testing kits, including infectious diseases testing kits, urinalysis testing kits, and hematology testing kits, is another significant factor contributing to the growing demand of these devices in the market among the healthcare providers and patients.


The COVID-19 pandemic positively impacted the market for point of care diagnostics in 2020. The rapid testing for COVID-19 increased during the period, which significantly increased the demand for POC testing among healthcare facilities in the market. However, the market witnessed slower growth in 2021 owing to the reduced number of COVID-19 cases and the rollout of various vaccines globally.


Point of Care Diagnostics Market Trends


Technological Advancements to Expand Point-of-Care Testing Applications


The increasing demand for novel products, along with the robust efforts of the key players, is leading to the development and introduction of products with advanced technology and features.


Major market players have increased their focus on adopting advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, IoT, and machine learning, among others, to manufacture efficient diagnostic tests. In November 2023, F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd. launched Elecsys HBeAg quant, an immunoassay that is able to determine both the presence and quantity of the hepatitis Be antigen (HBeAg) in human serum and plasma.


Miniaturization and increased mobility of the POC testing devices are a few more features that are included in these devices owing to technological advancements. These technological advancements are enabling bioassays, such as microbiological culture, Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assays (ELISA), and polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), to be used at the point of care. In June 2023, Sysmex Corporation launched a point-of-care testing system for rapid detection of antimicrobial susceptibility in Europe using a unique and proprietary microfluidic technology.


Therefore, the increasing R&D focus of the market players, along with rising initiatives by the government bodies and national and international healthcare organizations to create awareness regarding testing for various chronic conditions, is expected to fuel the technological advancements in the products.

Point of Care Diagnostics Market Growth Factors


Increasing Prevalence of Infectious Diseases and Chronic Disorders to Foster Demand for Point of Care Diagnostics Products


There is a significant increase in the occurrence of chronic ailments such as cardiovascular disorders, diabetes, and various infectious diseases among the population globally. The rising patient population suffering from chronic conditions, along with increasing awareness regarding early screening and diagnosis, are expected to boost the demand for these testing devices in the market.


According to 2022 data published by WHO, approximately 39.0 million people were living with HIV in 2022. In addition, around 1.3 million people acquired HIV in 2022 globally.


Moreover, the growing prevalence of chronic conditions such as cancer and diabetes, among others, is another major factor contributing to the rising demand for these POCT testing kits and devices among the population.


Thus, the increasing patient population, along with a robust focus of the market players on developing and introducing novel products and test kits to cater to the rising demand, are expected to fuel the point of care diagnostics market growth during the forecast period.


Proliferation of Decentralized Healthcare Systems to Support Market Expansion


The increase in point of care diagnostics testing has become crucial for patient-centric healthcare due to the rapid diagnosis results required for accurate and quicker treatment decisions. A shift from centralized point-of-care testing to decentralized testing for chronic and infectious diseases has resulted in convenient access to these diagnostics for patients.


The increase in the demand for fast turnover testing has allowed many players to develop infectious disease tests for decentralized locations. Thus, the increasing demand for fast and effective diagnostics, which can be performed at home or physician’s offices for patient ease, has been boosting the demand for decentralized healthcare settings. For instance, in February 2023, Anavasi Diagnostics received the FDA's Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for its AscencioDx Molecular Detector and AscencioDx COVID-19 Test. The portability and affordability of the products enabled quality point-of-care molecular testing in mobile testing sites, urgent care centers, and assisted nursing care centers.


The adoption of rapid diagnostic testing is related to an increase in decentralized settings as it enables easy accessibility of medical devices and eliminates the need for transportation. These trends are expected to influence the market positively.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


Lack of Accuracy of Point of Care Tests May Limit Adoption of the Devices  


There are several advantages of POC testing kits and devices, which are rapidly increasing the adoption of these devices in the market. However, there are a few limitations, such as limited accuracy of test results using POC kits and devices, among others.


The high cost associated with the technologies is another major barrier to the limited adoption of these tests among the population. The underdeveloped healthcare infrastructure in emerging countries results in poor connectivity, which requires manual entry of patient medical records into the system, triggering errors, delays, and duplicate testing, which further increases the costs associated with this testing.


Hence, the lack of accuracy, along with the rising cost of the devices, are expected to hamper the market’s growth globally during the forecast period.


Point of Care Diagnostics Market Segmentation Analysis


By Product Analysis


Blood Glucose Monitoring Segment Registered the Largest Share Due to the Rise in Diabetes Prevalence


Based on product, the market is segmented into blood glucose monitoring, infectious disease testing, cardiometabolic disease testing, pregnancy & fertility testing, hematology testing, and others.


The blood glucose monitoring segment dominated the global point of care diagnostics market share in 2023. The rising prevalence of diabetes among the population, along with a growing focus of the market players on developing and introducing products with advanced features and technology, are some of the major factors supporting the growth of the segment. In February 2024, Dexcom, Inc. launched Dexcom ONE+, the latest Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM), with an aim to bring powerful, new diabetes management technology to patients in the Netherlands.


The pregnancy & fertility testing segment is anticipated to expand at a significant growth rate during the forecast period. The segment's growth can be attributed to the growing fertility issues and awareness about sexual health. The rising adoption of various testing kits and products, especially in developed countries such as the U.S., Germany, and the U.K., among others, is another major factor contributing to the growth of the segment.


The hematology testing, infectious disease testing, and others segments are also anticipated to grow during the forecast period owing to the growing prevalence of various infectious diseases and chronic conditions such as HIV and cancer, among others, and higher rate of screening and early diagnosis of these conditions, among other factors.
