End-user (Hospitals, Clinics, Diagnostic Centers)
The global IV disinfecting caps market is segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by end-user in hospitals, clinics, and diagnostic centers. Out of the three end-users of IV disinfecting caps, the hospitals segment is estimated to gain the largest market share in the year 2037. The growth of the segment can be attributed to the increasing number of infections acquired in hospitals. For instance, the need for IV disinfecting caps may rise as a result of the rise in hospital-acquired illnesses. Hospital-acquired infections are infections that patients acquire during their stay in a hospital or other healthcare facilities. Moreover, healthcare providers are focusing on infection control measures to safeguard patients from potentially fatal diseases, which might rise the demand for IV disinfecting caps. Further, IV disinfecting caps are used to prevent the transmission of infections through intravenous lines. According to estimates, healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) cause over 90,000 deaths and more than 1 million infections annually in hospitals in the United States.
The global IV disinfecting caps market is also segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by end-user into hospitals, clinics, and diagnostic centers. Amongst these three segments, the clinics segment is expected to garner a significant share in the year 2037. Patients may be at risk of contracting infections at clinics, as IV lines are frequently used to administer drugs, fluids, and other therapies to patients. However, if these lines are not thoroughly cleaned, they could spread disease. In addition, using IV disinfectant caps can aid in limiting the spread of illnesses in clinics. This, as a result, is anticipated to create numerous opportunities for the growth of the segment in the coming years.
