Nanotechnology: A New Advancement That Boosted the Dialysis Market


Dialysis machines are artificial kidneys for those patients who have partial or permanent renal failure. They mix and monitor dialysate, the fluid that removes the waste elements from blood. Moreover, it maintains electrolytes and minerals to their proper level, and monitors blood flow in the body. The dialysis market has grown in the recent years owing to the increasing number of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients, technological advancements in healthcare, and increased funding for improved dialysis products.



Studies prove that more than million people around the world are, unfortunately, the victims of kidney failure, which demanded new, effective, and technologically advanced dialysis machines. Physicians at the Kidney Research Institute of the University of Washington have found an unconventional way to improve hemodialysis treatments by developing a wearable artificial kidney. Typically, a patient goes to dialysis center three times a week for a four-hour treatment. This wearable artificial kidney is battery-powered and weighs around 10 pounds. It provides around-the-clock dialysis. An early stage trial of the device showed a successful 24-hour dialysis of five out of seven patients. Although the two patients had to stop their treatment due to a technical failure in the device. However, the remaining five were able to walk in the hospital halls while their dialysis devices were continuously cleaning their blood for unwanted elements.

There have been numerous trials to improve the treatments of dialysis. In 2016, researchers of Vanderbilt University disclosed their project on microchip filters, which could remove unwanted waste products from blood. Each nanochip could be tailored according to a patient’s specific needs and medical condition. The electronic device was designed to operate with mere 15 microchips, which use live kidney cells to mimic the natural filtration functions of kidney. The use of nanotechnology in dialysis machines and pumps reduced their bulky size. Moreover, it fulfilled the pressure requirements for filtration. However, the main challenge to create such innovative device is maintaining the seamless interaction between blood and the device.

The University of Southern California has recently published its research on stem cells, which can hasten new remedies for renal diseases. The research studied the growth of kidneys in mother’s womb, and the similarities between human and mouse kidneys. The study proved that an average waiting time for a kidney transplant is more than three years. Thus, patients have to put their life on hold till a donor becomes available, and they need at least three dialysis a week to survive. The data analyzed human and animal stem cell functions and created a knowledge-base that can help produce mini-kidneys to perform renal functions.

The increase in number of ESRD patients has boosted the growth of dialysis market, however, there are several factors that hinder the growth of the market. The unawareness among the community about dialysis and self-care therapies is the major obstacle of dialysis market growth. Self-care therapies are often underutilized by patients due to numerous misconceptions regarding them. By educating patients about chronic kidney diseases, both patients and doctors can make an informed decision whether the patient is suitable for self-help dialysis or not. An early start of dialysis can increase the life-expectancy of a patient and surge the number of individuals who experience the advantages of self-care dialysis treatment. Furthermore, single-specialty dialysis centers are mushrooming all over the world, which increased the speed and lowered the cost of the treatment. Furthermore, the emergence of telemedicine era has been beneficial to the growth of dialysis market. Telemedicine has allowed nephrologists and nurses to interact with hemodialysis and peritoneal patients. Telemedicine has provided a great deal of comfort to the renal patients to know the availability of a doctor in dialysis center.

Intraoperative Neuromonitoring Market Worth $4,900 Million, by 2022

Global Intraoperative Neuromonitoring (IONM) Markehttps://www.alliedmarketresearch.com/intraoperative-neuromonitoring-marketwas valued at $3,036 million in 2015, and is projected to reach $4,900 million by 2022, growing at a CAGR of 7% from 2016 to 2022, according to a new report published by Allied Market Research.

IONM systems segment accounted for nearly half of the total market in 2015. IONM systems help in the identification of neural structures during a surgery. This helps the surgeons to prevent any damage to the nervous system, which may be caused during the surgery and reduce post-operative complications. Thus, IONM systems identify any progressive threat to the nervous system and alert the surgeon prior to reaching the patients threshold for injury.
Ageing population, increase in prevalence of chronic disorders, applications of IONM in different surgeries, and risk management through IONM during complex surgeries drive the market. However, low awareness of IONM in developing nations and lack of skilled professionals restrain the market growth. Increase in medical tourism and growth opportunities in the emerging economies of the Asia-Pacific and LAMEA regions are expected to provide several opportunities for key players.
Outsourced IONM monitoring is growing at a fast pace due to its benefits over insourced monitoring. Now-a-days, hospitals do not prefer insourced monitoring as they have to appoint a full-time employee with the required skill set and they cannot offer the training standardization required to improve the quality of service. Thus, outsourced monitoring is in demand among hospitals and ASCs, and the market gradually shifts toward outsourced monitoring services.
IONM is most commonly used during spinal and neurosurgery. However, there is an increase in the use of IONM for orthopedic as well as ENT surgeries as these surgeries pose a potential risk to the neural structures and require a technique, which protects nerves (and other related structures) during the procedure.

Key findings of the Intraoperative Neuromonitoring Market

  • Based on applications, spinal surgery segment accounted for one-third of the total market in 2015. However, orthopedic surgery is the fastest growing application of IONM (which is expected to grow with a CAGR of 7.4% from 2016 to 2022)
  • Electromyography (EMG) modality accounted for more than one-fourth of the global market in 2015.
  • IONM services segment is expected to grow at a high CAGR of 10.0% during the forecast period, due to an increase in the demand for IONM service providers.
  • Hospitals accounted for nearly three-fifths of the total market in 2015.
  • Asia-Pacific is expected grow at a high CAGR of 8.2%, owing to the presence of ample growth opportunities in terms of unmet medical needs for IONM services in the region.
North America accounted for majority of the share (more than two-fifths) in the market in 2015, and is expected to remain dominant throughout the forecast period. This is attributed to the presence of a large number of hospitals, and increase in number of surgeries in the region. In addition, awareness among people for IONM is anticipated to provide new growth opportunities for the key players in this market. In addition, rise in geriatric population, increase in incidence of spinal deformities, spinal stenosis, disc compression, and other chronic disorders drive the IONM market in Europe.
