Increasing number of people diagnosed with diabetes coupled with a rise in the number of people monitoring their blood glucose levels at home is envisaged to result in the growth of the market space.
Safety lancets are single-use blood sampling devices that form an integral component of the sharps injury prevention program in healthcare centers, clinics, laboratories, and doctor’s offices. By using safety lancets, needle-stick injuries and infections can be eliminated. Personal lancets are disposable and can be easily used at home to make vein punctures and collect small blood samples.With numerous technological advancements in the home healthcare industry, the lancet market is expected to witness precipitous growth. Increasing preference for the self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) coupled with the launch of innovative products by glucose-monitoring manufacturers is expected to result in an increase in the number of patients performing blood glucose tests at home.
As per the International Diabetes Federation, in 2013, the number of patients diagnosed with diabetes across China and India was 100 million and 65.1 million, respectively, and by 2035 the numbers are expected to surge further. Consequently, many manufacturing companies in emerging markets
such as China, Taiwan, and India have started providing lancets at a very competitive price. Another major challenge is the fact that most people find it extremely inconvenient and painful using a lancet on themselves. In a controlled study conducted by the British Medical Journal in 2009, it was found that the number of participants reduced with repeated SMBG trials.
