According to Facts and Factors, the global ultrasound probe disinfection market size was estimated to be worth roughly USD 442.39 million in 2021 and is predicted to grow to around USD 1012.74 million by 2028. The global Ultrasound Probe Disinfection market is predicted to grow at a CAGR of roughly 12.56% during the forecast period.
Ultrasonography is employed as an imaging modality increasingly commonly in a range of healthcare contexts. Each ultrasound operation requires that an ultrasound transducer make contact with the patient's skin, mucous membranes, or sterile tissues. When simple infection control standards, such as the proper cleaning and reprocessing of the tools and transducers, are not followed, there is an increased risk of pathogen transmission and subsequent infection. Lack of adherence to infection control recommendations supported by science has led to numerous epidemics emerging from ultrasonography exams.

Further, rising pregnancy rates and birth rates demand increased use of ultrasound. An obstetrical ultrasound is a frequent procedure used to monitor the fetus’ growth and health using ultrasound images throughout pregnancy. As the number of births and pregnancies worldwide rises, more OB/GYN imaging and newborn care will likely be performed using ultrasound technology. The number of pregnancies is anticipated to significantly rise in the next years, particularly in China and India. These two countries had the most preterm births in 2020, with 20.0 million and 12.0 million babies, respectively. Preterm babies need a lot more ultrasound procedures than regular babies do because of the OB/GYN issues associated with these pregnancies. Additionally, ultrasound probe disinfection product manufacturers should see significant growth opportunities due to the high rate of births (pregnancies) and more recent ultrasound obstetrical applications (like the detection of fetal cardiac pulsations and pulsations in various fetal blood vessels).
One of the key factors driving the global ultrasound probe disinfection market expansion is ultrasonic imaging techniques being increasingly used. Through immediate access to clinical data, modern diagnostic ultrasound imaging techniques have enhanced diagnosis. The ability of instant diagnostic data to replace more expensive diagnostic tests has consequently contributed to a reduction in overall healthcare costs. Given the diversity of ultrasound imaging treatments available, there is significant room for growth in the ultrasound probe disinfection market. The increasing elderly population around the world is a significant factor for the rise in ultrasonic imaging procedures. As more people age (65 years and older), they become increasingly susceptible to hospital-acquired infections and chronic illnesses including cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and other malignancies, which will increase the demand for disease diagnosis and treatment.
The market for ultrasonic probe disinfection tools suffered during the height of the COVID-19 epidemic, and this trend remained through December 2020. The drop in ultrasound imaging operations is believed to have an effect on the market for consumables. Despite this, it doesn't seem like a rise in disinfection cycles is having a detrimental effect on the market for consumables. The frequency of ultrasonography procedures began to gradually increase after the introduction of vaccines. Several associations and governmental organizations, including the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine, have published international recommendations to solve a number of concerns in the current scenario and guarantee patient safety. Due to the aforementioned problems, hospitals and caregivers may anticipate delays in elective surgeries and ultrasound procedures. However, it is anticipated that the market will begin to consistently grow as intended beginning in the latter part of 2021.
The global ultrasound probe disinfection market is segmented based on product type, disinfection process, end-user, and region.
On the basis of type, the market has been segmented into instruments, consumables, and services. Because instruments are more expensive than consumables and services, they accounted for the greatest market share in 2021. Automated reprocessors, UV-C disinfectors, manual reprocessors/soaking stations, and ultrasound probe storage cabinets are some of the devices on the market for ultrasound probe disinfection.
On the basis of disinfection process, the market has been segmented into high-level disinfection, intermediate /low level disinfection. In 2021, the market was headed by the segment for intermediate/low-level disinfection, which accounted for more than 50% of the global share. Since intermediate/low-level disinfection is the fundamental process that is adhered to as a routine procedure in hospital facilities, the market is expected to maintain its leadership position during the forecast years. Due to the growing awareness of sanitation, the high-level disinfection method is predicted to see the quickest CAGR throughout the projection period.
On the basis of end-user, the market has been segmented into hospitals & clinics, diagnostics imaging centers, and others. The market share represented by hospitals and clinics was the largest in 2021 and is expected to grow at the quickest CAGR during the forecast period. The increase in diagnostic imaging and in-vitro fertilization methods is blamed for this development. Additionally, it is projected that rising investments in healthcare infrastructure by public and private entities around the world will promote segment expansion.
In 2021, North America is predicted to hold the greatest market share for ultrasound probe disinfection. A number of factors contribute to this, including the rise in transvaginal, transrectal, abdominal, and intraoperative ultrasound procedures, as well as transoesophageal echocardiography (TEE), and ultrasound-guided interventional procedures (biopsies, venous access), the rising use of high-level disinfectants, and the presence of significant market players in the area. Additionally, the need for automated probe reprocessors is increasing in the area due to the demand for automated high-level disinfection systems, which are required to lower the prevalence of HAIs.
