Creatinine Test Market

Market Synopsis:

Global Creatinine Test market is valued at USD 995.1 Million in 2021 and is projected to attain a value of USD 2,356.7 Million by 2028 at a CAGR of 16.1% during the forecast period, 2022–2028. Over the forecast period, the global Creatinine Test market is expected to increase significantly. Muscle metabolism produces creatinine as an endogenous by-product. This waste product is measured in the clinical laboratory to determine the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), which further describes the renal function of patients. Jaffe's kinetic methods and enzymatic methods are used in the majority of modern creatinine assays.

Increased creatinine levels in the urine, together with an abrupt decline in urine output, are usually indicators of AKI or ARF. As a result, the rise in and high rate of hypoalbuminemia caused by COVID-19 (coupled with the growing elderly population and other variables) is predicted to increase the number of instances of AKI/ARF, thereby supporting market growth in the first half of the forecasted period.

Rising Prevalence of Kidney Disorders

Kidney disease is a leading cause of death all over the world. Multiple renal therapies necessitate constant monitoring of components like creatinine and albumin, as well as their ratios, which necessitates the use of multiple urine analysis products and procedures. Urine analysis is commonly used in the diagnosis and treatment of renal disorders. Clinicians can use biochemical urine analysis to determine the levels of chemical substances in the urine (such as creatinine, urobilinogen, bilirubin, ketones, and glucose). Chronic kidney illness, acute kidney injury, and acute renal failure are all indicated by abnormal levels of these chemicals in the urine. As a result, the rising prevalence of renal illnesses will be the primary growth driver for this market, ensuring that demand for albumin and creatinine tests remains stable.

High Cost of Automated Analyzers

Most small hospitals and clinics still favour semi-automated technology or manual analysis due to smaller workloads. Large hospitals with heavy workloads are more likely to adopt automated instruments, therefore the revenue generated can justify the expenditures of implementing automated analyzers. This makes it difficult for automated analyzers to break into the market, particularly in emerging economies, posing a significant barrier to industry expansion.
