The global platelet incubator market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.4% during the forecast period, rising from USD 619.8 million in 2017 to USD 875.1 million by 2028. The increased demand for platelets is anticipated as an indication of their vital role in transfusion therapy and blood preservation, which has led to the increasing adoption of this technology across all regions globally.
A platelet incubator is a cabinet or device that contains the supplies and equipment needed to store, grow, prepare for transfusion, test, and package human platelets. It typically includes an environment specifically controlled to maintain sterile conditions in order to preserve the potency of collected blood cells as well as keep them at optimum storage temperature before they are transfused to a patient. It typically includes an environment specifically controlled to maintain sterile conditions in order to preserve the potency of collected blood cells as well as keep them at optimum storage temperature before they are transfused to a patient. For example, there is often a system that recirculates air or gas through the incubator cabinet and filters it before it is returned to the cabinet. Such a system may also include an air conditioner and humidifier that regulate the temperature, humidity level, pressure differences, and flow rate of gas in order to maintain optimum conditions for storage or incubation of blood cells like platelets.
On the basis of type, the global platelet incubator market is segmented into bench-top platelet incubator and floor-standing platelet Incubators,
Bench-top platelet incubators are used for the transfusion of a patient who is in danger. They require the least amount of floor space, which makes them ideal for use at blood banks or hospitals where there may not be enough room to dedicate an entire area to storage systems.
Bench-top Platelet Incubators are also ideal for use in clinical trials. They can be used on an as-needed basis, and the platelets stored here do not have to last indefinitely.
The floor-standing incubator is a popular choice among hospitals because it offers a storage capacity that is larger than that of the bench-top incubator. It is also an excellent choice for blood banks, but it does require more floor space to operate effectively. To further increase its storage capacity without taking up too much room on a hospital's floor, some institutions will use two or even three units in tandem with one another.
On the basis of application, the global platelet incubator market is segmented into blood banks, hospitals, academic & research institutes, and others.
Platelet incubators are used in blood banks to store platelets at a constant 37°C and 95% relative humidity. Platelets, which have an average shelf life of five days if stored properly, require specialized storage for optimal quality before transfusion. An automated system is the best solution because it can provide appropriate temperature and humidity levels.
A platelet incubator is an important device in the hospital. It is used to store and maintain a patient’s blood cells at physiological temperature for transfusion purposes. The platelets are stored using a vacuum, which helps in preserving them beyond their expiry date without compromising on quality. This appliance also facilitates various safety measures such as alarms, time-temperature indicators, and pressure sensors to ensure the safety of these cells. The platelet incubators are usually used in hospitals for storing patients’ blood cells at a physiological temperature so that they can be transfused or stored for later use as necessary. Platelets have a very short shelf-life; hence it is important to store them in an incubator.
The use of platelet incubators in academic and research institutes is typically to ensure that the blood cells remain at a stable temperature throughout their life cycle. This is important since the optimal range for growth is 37 degrees Celsius. Something as simple as opening an incubator door can result in short periods of warm air exposure, which may be sufficient to cause a platelet cell to die.
On the basis of region, the global platelet incubator market is segmented into North America, Latin America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. Asia Pacific region is the leading market for platelet incubators in 2018 due to the early adoption of technology by the blood banks in developing countries such as India, China, and Indonesia.
Currently, North America is dominating the global platelet incubator market due to the high disposable income of people in this region which makes them more likely to purchase platelet incubators for their personal use. This increase will lead to a rise in demand for these products over the forecast period.
Growth Factors
- Increasing incidences of cardiovascular diseases and cancer leads to the demand for blood transfusion in developing countries.
- Growing patient awareness about platelet preservation techniques such as refrigeration, freezing methods, and other storage solutions.
- Increasing demand for platelet transfusions in the Asia Pacific and Middle East & Africa.
- Growing healthcare facilities in developing countries.
- Increase the use of platelet transfusion to treat severe thrombocytopenia, leukemia, and other chronic disorders such as myelodysplasia (MDS).
