Cocaine Intoxication - Epidemiology Forecast - 2034

Cocaine Intoxication - Epidemiology Forecast - 2034

Key Highlights

DelveInsight’s analyst projects that among the total Emergency Visits due to Cocaine in 7MM approximately 55% of cases were from the US, in 2022. The cases are expected to rise in the forecast period, due to factors such as heightened availability of cocaine, changes in societal norms and behaviors, and potentially increased stressors leading to substance abuse.

As per the analysis conducted by DelveInsight, in 2022, the EU4 and the UK accounted for nearly 308 thousand cases of total emergency visits due to Cocaine, out of which Spain recorded the highest cases, that is nearly 108 thousand cases while Germany recorded the lowest, with nearly 8 thousand cases.

DelveInsight’s “Cocaine Intoxication – Epidemiology – 2034” report delivers an in-depth understanding of the Cocaine Intoxication, historical and forecasted epidemiology in the United States, EU4 (Germany, France, Italy, and Spain) and the United Kingdom, and Japan.

Disease Understanding and Diagnostic Algorithm

Cocaine Intoxication Overview

Cocaine intoxication is a condition in which a person is not only high from using the drug but also has body-wide symptoms that can make a person ill and impaired. Cocaine abuse is a major worldwide health problem. Patients with acute cocaine toxicity presenting to the emergency department (ED) may require urgent treatment for tachycardia, dysrhythmia, hypertension, and coronary vasospasm, leading to pathological squeal such as acute coronary syndrome, stroke, and death. Genetic, social, environmental, physical, and mental factors can all play a role when someone gets addicted to cocaine.

Cocaine increases alertness, feelings of well-being, euphoria, energy, sociability, and sexuality. Mild adverse effects include anxiety, increased temperature, paranoia, restlessness, and teeth grinding. The drug can cause chronic complications like insomnia, weight loss, anorexia, persistent tachycardia, heart failure, kidney failure, hallucinations, and paranoid delusions with prolonged use. Furthermore, depression with suicidal ideation may develop in heavy users.

In cases of severe acute intoxication, potentially lethal adverse effects include prolonged episodes of arrhythmia, heavy hypoglycemia, tremors, convulsions, hyperthermia, untreated uremia, myocardial infarction, stroke, and sudden cardiac arrest.

Cocaine Intoxication Diagnosis

The diagnosis of cocaine intoxication includes laboratory testing for suspected cocaine toxicity can include a complete blood count, comprehensive chemistry panel, troponin, B-type natriuretic peptide, creatinine kinase, urinalysis, urine toxicology screen, and electrocardiogram. Imaging may also include chest X-ray, abdominal X-ray for suspected body packers or stuffers, and head CT if altered mental status suggests intracranial hemorrhage. Other diagnostic methods include creatine kinase and urinalysis.

Diagnosing cocaine intoxication poses challenges due to its varied presentation and potential co-occurrence with other substances, necessitating comprehensive clinical assessment and confirmatory drug testing for accurate identification.

Cocaine Intoxication Epidemiology

As the market is derived using the patient-based model, the Cocaine Intoxication epidemiology chapter in the report provides historical as well as forecasted epidemiology segmented by Total Emergency Visits due to Cocaine, in the 7MM covering the United States, EU4 countries (Germany, France, Italy, and Spain) and the United Kingdom, and Japan, from 2020 to 2034. As per DelveInsight’s estimations, total emergency visits due to Cocaine in the 7MM were approximately 970 thousand cases in 2022 and these cases are projected to increase during the forecast period.

The total emergency visits due to cocaine, in the United States were estimated to be approximately 550 thousand in 2022, and it is expected to increase at an estimated CAGR throughout the study period (2020-2034).

EU4 and the UK accounted for nearly 307 thousand cases of total emergency visits due to cocaine. Among EU4 and the UK, the United Kingdom recorded around 61 thousand cases of total emergency visits due to cocaine and these cases are expected to increase during the forecast period (2023-2034).

In Japan, there were around 123 thousand cases of the total emergency visits due to Cocaine, in 2022. Japan accounted around 13% of total emergency visits due to cocaine, in the 7MM. It is anticipated that these numbers will decrease over the study period due to a declining population trend in Japan.

KOL Views

To gaze into the epidemiology insights of the real world, we take KOLs and SMEs’ opinions working in the domain through primary research to fill the data gaps and validate the secondary research.
