The hydrogen breath test is used to for the measurement of hydrogen in the breath to diagnose several conditions that cause gastrointestinal symptoms. Large amounts of hydrogen produced where there is a problem with the digestion or absorption of food in the small intestine that allows more unabsorbed food to reach the colon or when the colon bacteria move back into the small intestine. It is very highly sensitive and specific diagnostic tool that is used by gastroenterologists to eliminate or confirm the chances of short intestinal bacterial overgrowth or carbohydrate malabsorption. Hydrogen breath test analyzers are becoming increasingly popular as they save time and provide rapid results.
Increasing prevalence of numerous etiologies leading to fecal incontinence is anticipated to surge in usage of hydrogen breath test analyzers in the market. The incidence and prevalence of gastrointestinal (GI) diseases across the globe are rising at a rapid pace, affecting millions of people. As indicated by World Gastroenterology Organization, the global prevalence of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is approximately 15% to 25%. Moreover, recent technological progress concerning to the development solid state and electromechanical sensors is likely boost the global hydrogen breath test analyzer market in times to come.
Besides, shift from Invasive to non-invasive diagnosis will drive demand for hydrogen breath test analyzers over the forecast period. Hydrogen breath test analyzers have become an attractive option for periodic monitoring of metabolic disorders caused by specific diseases or occupational exposure to toxic substances.
The report analyses the global Hydrogen Breath Test Analyzer market based on product, sensor, end user and geography.
Hydrogen breath test analyser products are commercially available as portable and handheld. Portable hydrogen breath analyzer is likely to account for major market share owing to its exceptional ergonomic design and the admiration it receives from gastroenterologist as a result. The hydrogen brethe test market is driven by innovations in the health care industry which have brought major changes in recent decades. With advancements and shift from invasive to non-invasive treatments, the need for hydrogen breath test analyzers for diagnosing lactose intolerance is increasing, therefore supporting the growth of the market
Hydrogen breath test analyser works on different sensors namely Electrochemical and Solid State Sensor. Electrochemical sensors will dominate the global breath test analysers market primarily due to the ‘breathprints’ that contain chemical markers, high sensitivity, precision, excellent repeatability and most importantly, low power consumption. On the other hand, solid-state sensors gain traction gradually during the forecast period owing to its non-intrusive nature of measuring gas from the breath that is exhaled.
The major end users of hydrogen breath test analyser include hospitals, pediatric clinics, outpatient centers and diagnostic laboratories.
In terms of region, the hydrogen breath test analyzer market is studied for the key regions including North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Rest of the World. North America region occupied for the largest market share of global hydrogen breath test analyzer market attributed to presence of large patient base and presence of advanced healthcare infrastructure and major market players is likely to act as another factor of growth for the market. On the other hand, Asia Pacific is likely to grow at a fastest pace over the forecast period owing to growing incidences of lactose malabsorption and health awareness amongst the people in the region, high R&D investment etc.
