Application (Platelet Function Disorder, Hemophilia, Thrombocytopenia, Perioperative Indication)
The platelet function disorder segment is assumed to dominate the blood platelets market with a revenue of 51% by the end of 2037. The growth of this market is majorly driven by the growing prevalence of cancer among the population. Chronic myelogenous leukemia and various myeloma cancers result in the development of acquired platelet dysfunction in some cancer patients. Therefore, cancer patients often have to receive platelet transfusions. In addition, chronic platelet dysfunction increases the need for platelet transfusions. The incidence of myeloma in the UK is projected to increase by 11% between 2014 and 2036, reported as by Cancer Research UK Statistics 2021. These figures indicate an increasing demand for platelet transfusions in the treatment of cancer patients. Therefore, platelets are often given to such patients to reduce the need for red blood cells, surgical blood loss, and complications such as reoperation due to bleeding.
End Users (Hospitals, Ambulatory Surgical Centers)
The hospital segment is predicted to witness the largest share of 72% during the time period between 2025 – 2037.
