Blood and Blood Components Market Analysis and Forecast to 2031: By Product (Whole Blood, Blood Components), Application (Anaemia, Trauma & Surgery, Cancer Treatment, Bleeding Disorders), End-User (Hospitals, Ambulatory Surgical Centers, Others), and Region
The global vacuum bearing market was valued at US$ 12.1 billion in 2021 and it is anticipated to grow up to US$ 16.5 billion by 2031, at a CAGR of 3.1% during the forecast period.
Blood and blood components are used in clinical settings for blood transfusion to save the lives of patients suffering from bleeding disorders, traumatic surgery, chronic diseases, or rare blood diseases. Patients who have been severely injured in car accidents or other traumatic incidents such as violence and assault usually require traumatic surgery. Road accidents cause significant blood loss and hemorrhage, necessitating an immediate blood transfusion to maintain blood volume and save the patient's life. Furthermore, blood transfusion is required in the treatment of chronic diseases such as blood cancer because cancer treatment involving surgery causes significant blood loss and blood cell loss. Patients undergoing stem cell transplantation for the treatment of blood cancers such as leukemia, myeloma, lymphoma, and others require high doses of chemotherapy, which causes blood cell depletion.

Market Drivers and Trends
The increase in cases of chronic diseases among people all over the world is the primary driver of the industry's growth. For example, according to the National Institute of Health, U.S. statistics 2018, approximately 459,058 people have suffered from leukemia, a type of blood cancer, in 2018. The NIH also predicts that approximately 61,090 new cases of leukemia will be diagnosed in the upcoming years. Therefore, the rise in the number of chronic illnesses, such as cancer and liver disease, as well as the large patient pool, is expected to fuel the growth of the blood and blood components market.
Furthermore, the industry's growth will be driven by rising of bleeding disorders and surgeries. The significant increase in the geriatric population, which is susceptible to a variety of chronic diseases such as liver cirrhosis, will drive a high demand for blood derivatives during the period. Rising public awareness of the importance of blood donations, as well as the increasing need for blood and blood derivatives in traumatic patients, are also factors influencing demand for whole blood, which will drive market growth. These factors are expected to drive the growth of the global Blood and Blood Components Market.
Market Restraints and Challenges
Over the period, the risk of adverse reactions and transmission of blood transfusion-associated infections such as HIV, syphilis, Zika virus, Hepatitis B, and others is expected to hinder growth in the global blood and blood components market. According to a March 2020 article published in the journal Nature Public Health Emergency Collection, blood transfusion is frequently associated with immunological reactions such as acute hemolytic anemia, delayed hemolytic reaction, febrile nonhemolytic reactions, and others, with febrile nonhemolytic reaction being the most common type of adverse reaction found in 7% of blood transfusion patients. This is a potential restraint hindering the global Blood and Blood Components Market growth.
Global Blood and Blood Components Market Segmental Overview
The report analyses the global Blood and Blood Components Market based on product, application, end-user, and region.
Global Blood and Blood Components Market by Product
Based on product, it is bifurcated into whole blood, and blood components. The blood components segment is expected to be the largest segment in the Blood and Blood Components Market in 2021. In 2021, the blood components segment accounted for more than USD 11.6 billion in market revenue. Blood components are required for a variety of surgeries and blood loss situations. Certain conditions, such as leukemia or long-term cancer treatment, interfere with the production of blood components in bone marrow. As a result, these components must be obtained from outside sources. The growing number of people who are concerned about their physical appearance and enhancement will drive the platelet and plasma market over the upcoming years.
Global Blood and Blood Components Market by Application
Based on application, the market is bifurcated into anemia, trauma & surgery, cancer treatment and bleeding disorders. The bleeding disorders segment dominated the market in 2021. In the upcoming years, the bleeding disorders market is expected to exceed USD 3.5 billion. Patients with lymphoma, leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, von Willebrand disease, and other diseases that cannot produce these essential components require external supply. The majority of treatments also include surgeries that result in blood loss and necessitate external blood supply. Anemia, in its various forms, such as iron-deficiency anemia, pernicious anemia, aplastic anemia, and others, affects the bone marrow, depleting the supply of red blood cells. In such cases, red blood cells must be administered to the patients. As a result, the rising prevalence of bleeding disorders will drive up demand for blood and blood components.
Global Blood and Blood Components Market by End-User
Based on end-user, the Blood and Blood Components Market is segmented into hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, and others. The ambulatory surgical centers segment dominated the market. In 2021, the ambulatory surgical centers segment accounted for approximately 23% of the business. The cost-effectiveness provided by ambulatory surgical centers, as well as surgeons' treatment preferences, are driving the end-use segment expansion. Ambulatory centers are where most non-hospitalized surgeries are performed in developed countries. Ambulatory care centers have increased significantly in developing countries, creating new growth opportunities for market participants. An increase in the number of surgeries and patients suffering from chronic illnesses will boost market statistics.
