Portable Diagnostics Devices Market Dynamics: Drivers & Restraints

Growing Demand for Point-of-Care Testing is Driving the Market Growth

The increasing demand for POCT is among key factors fueling market growth for portable diagnostic devices, which facilitate rapid diagnosis and consequent clinical decision-making outside conventional clinical settings. There is a progressing decentralization trend within the global healthcare landscape, particularly following the COVID-19 pandemic, that emphasises an urgent need for immediate, accessible diagnostic solutions. 

Therefore, meeting that requirement is essentially due to portable diagnostic devices that empower the healthcare workforce and patients to conduct tests at the bedside, in outpatient facilities, or even at their home setups while minimising their dependence on centralised laboratories. This provides the utmost convenience to patients while also allowing clinical intervention to be even faster, something that becomes critical, especially in chronic conditions such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and cardiovascular disorders. 

Moreover, in developing countries and in rural areas that remain devoid of proper healthcare infrastructure, these devices act as conduits for essential testing where conventional laboratory support is absent. Technological progress involving wireless connectivity, smartphone integration, and AI-powered data interpretation has enhanced the ability and reliability of portable diagnostic tools, thereby making them a key element of modern-day and patient-centric healthcare models.

Limited Accuracy and Reliability in Some Devices Restraining the Market Growth

One crucial hindrance to the mass adoption of portable diagnostic devices is their continual concern regarding accuracy, sensitivity, and, more so, their reliability compared to traditional methods of testing performed in a laboratory or clinic. While convenience and quickness remain synonymous with such portable solutions, sometimes they are lacking in delivering consistent results with precision and reliability, mainly when applied in environments other than a clinically controlled one. For example, a scenario might exist where a user's error or environmental conditions, such as temperature and humidity, play a role in affecting the outcome of a test. 

Furthermore, the efficacy of such tests could be subject to issues arising from a lack of adequate device calibrations or differences in the quality of samples collected for testing. To cite another example, the use of point-of-care testing kits at home may yield variably accurate results because of improper use or lack of professional oversight, which can lead to misdiagnosis or delayed treatment. 

Portable Diagnostics Devices Market Segment Analysis

The global portable diagnostics devices market is segmented based on product type, technology, application, end-user, and region.

Product Type:

The blood glucose monitoring segment is expected to hold 42.3% of the portable diagnostics devices market

Blood glucose monitoring tools are medical devices that determine the amount of glucose in a person's blood to help with controlling and monitoring diabetes. They provide real-time data about the person's glucose levels; therefore, the patient, with the help of a healthcare provider, can make decisions about food, drugs, and lifestyle changes. There are mainly two types: one being the traditional BGMs that require a blood drop from a finger prick, while the other is CGMs, where sensors are placed under the skin to record the glucose change throughout the day. Progress in technology has enabled many such devices to now have smartphone compatibility, cloud data storage, and predictive alerts to further ease the usage of the device while increasing clinical utility. 

The demand for the blood glucose monitoring devices segment is driven due to factors such as sedentary lifestyles, poor diets, obesity, and aging populations. Millions of new diabetes cases are diagnosed annually, putting a strain on healthcare systems. Effective self-monitoring tools are needed to manage blood glucose levels and prevent complications like kidney failure and heart disease. The demand for accessible, user-friendly, and accurate devices is rising. Increased awareness of early diagnosis and continuous management, along with government and private sector initiatives, has led to higher adoption rates. Continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) are popular due to their real-time data and convenience.

For instance, in May 2024, Smart Meter, a leading provider of Cellular Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) solutions, has introduced a new version of its patented iGlucose, branded iGlucose Plus, with advanced features that disrupt the remote blood glucose monitoring market and improve access to accurate diabetes management technology for millions of patients.
