Market
The global blood ketone meter market size is expected to reach US$ 521.7 million by 2028 and is expected to increase at CAGR value of 7.2 % from 2021 to 2028. Blood ketone test meter evaluates the presence of ketones in blood. Ketones are the substances which are produced when the cells don’t get enough glucose. Ketones are generally found in blood or urine. Increased ketone level leads to diabetic ketoacidosis, a complication that leads to coma or death. A higher ketone level indicates weight reduction. A blood ketone test meter is used for checking diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) in type 1 diabetic patients.
Market Dynamics
The growth in the ketone test meter market is identified by high ketone levels and diabetes. The growing geriatric population and increasing obese population are the driving factors for increasing demand for blood ketone test meters. Advancement in test meter, rising awareness about diabetes, health insurance, and reimbursement are the leading factors boosting the growth of the blood ketone market during the forecast period. From the data of the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) report, around 463 million adults of age group 20 to 79 years were suffering from diabetes globally in 2019 and is estimated to reach 700 million by 2045. However, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), around 30 per 1,000 patients were hospitalized due to diabetic ketoacidosis in the U.S. from 2009 to 2014. Blood Ketone meters are advanced devices that sometimes show faulty and inconsistent results which leads to product recall and this would reduce the popularity of these meters thereby restraining the market growth. Among the major geographies, North America is estimated to be the most dominant region in the global blood ketone meter market. Increasing product launches and approvals for new ketone meters by the government is expected to propel blood ketone market growth further.
