Pneumonia is an infection in the lower respiratory tract caused by bacteria, viruses and fungi. It spreads via the inhalation of airborne droplets from the sneeze or cough of an infected person. It leads to inflammation in the air sacs of the lungs and shortness of breath. It also reduces appetite and causes mild fever, dry cough, headaches, fatigue, chills and chest pain. It is diagnosed through pneumonia testing, which includes a physical examination, medical history review, chest X-ray, blood culture, pulse oximetry, sputum culture, bronchoscopy, and fluid sample.

Pneumonia Testing Market Trends:

At present, there is a rise in the utilization of point of care (POC) testing to detect pneumonia on account of its higher efficiency and rapid and accurate test results. This, along with the burgeoning healthcare industry, represents one of the key factors driving the market. Moreover, the introduction of immunochromatographic, pneumococcal urinary antigen (UAT) and advanced nucleic acid detection tests is propelling the growth of the market. In addition, the growing awareness among individuals about the benefits of early diagnosis is augmenting the number of pneumonia testing across the globe. This, coupled with the rising healthcare expenditure by governments of several countries, is contributing to the growth of the market. Besides this, there is an increase in the adoption of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to detect pneumonia as it is highly sensitive and easier to carry out. Other growth-inducing factors are the growing geriatric population and rising prevalence of pneumonia among children around the world. Furthermore, key market players are focusing on new product launches and approvals which is projected to bolster the growth of the market.
