Acute Agitation and Aggression Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034

The 7 major acute agitation and aggression markets reached a value of US$ 2.5 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the 7MM to reach US$ 3.9 Billion by 2034, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 3.92% during 2024-2034.

The acute agitation and aggression market has been comprehensively analyzed in IMARC's new report titled "Acute Agitation and Aggression Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034". Acute agitation and aggression refer to a heightened state of restlessness and hostility, often characterized by intense emotional arousal and a propensity for violent or disruptive behaviors. Individuals experiencing this condition may display an inability to remain calm, restlessness, verbal outbursts, physical aggression, and a diminished capacity to cope with stressors. The symptoms of the illness can manifest as pacing, shouting, threatening gestures, or even physical violence towards others or objects. This state of emotional distress can arise from various factors, such as medical conditions, substance use, psychiatric disorders, or external stimuli. It is essential to recognize that, while these symptoms can be alarming, they are typically indicative of an underlying issue rather than a standalone disorder. Diagnosing the root cause of acute agitation and aggression involves a comprehensive assessment by medical professionals. This investigation might include a thorough medical history, a physical examination, and potentially laboratory tests to rule out any other health conditions that could be contributing to the symptoms.

The increasing prevalence of various neurobiological factors, like environmental stressors and genetic predisposition, resulting in heightened emotional reactivity and impulsive behavior, is primarily driving the acute agitation and aggression market. In addition to this, the rising incidences of dysregulation in neurotransmitter systems, particularly involving serotonin and dopamine pathways, that can impair responses to external stimuli are also creating a positive outlook for the market. Moreover, the widespread adoption of pharmacological medications, such as antipsychotics, anxiolytics, mood stabilizers, etc., for managing and mitigating acute agitation and aggression is further bolstering the market growth. These drugs act on neural circuits to modulate neurotransmitter imbalances and restore emotional equilibrium in individuals suffering from the disorder. Apart from this, the rising usage of non-pharmacological interventions, including cognitive-behavioral therapies, mindfulness practices, and sensory modulation techniques, to boost emotional self-regulation and conflict resolution skills is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. Additionally, the emerging popularity of neurostimulation procedures like transcranial magnetic stimulation and deep brain stimulation, since they work by directly modulating neural activity in specific brain regions, thereby influencing neuroplasticity in patients, is expected to drive the acute agitation and aggression market during the forecast period.

IMARC Group's new report provides an exhaustive analysis of the acute agitation and aggression market in the United States, EU4 (Germany, Spain, Italy, and France), United Kingdom, and Japan.

Furthermore, the current treatment practice/algorithm, market drivers, challenges, opportunities, reimbursement scenario, unmet medical needs, etc., have also been provided in the report. This report is a must-read for manufacturers, investors, business strategists, researchers, consultants, and all those who have any kind of stake or are planning to foray into the acute agitation and aggression market in any manner.

Recent Developments:
In May 2023, BioXcel Therapeutics, Inc. reported encouraging results for BXCL501, the Company's proprietary, orally dissolving film of dexmedetomidine being studied for the treatment of agitation, in Part 1 of its Phase 3 SERENITY III trial, which was conducted in institutional settings for the acute treatment of bipolar disorder- or schizophrenia-related agitation. These results are expected to allow the beginning of Part 2 for at-home use.
In May 2023, The United States Food and Drug Administration granted supplementary approval to Rexulti (brexpiprazole) oral tablets for the management of agitation associated with Alzheimer's dementia. It is the first FDA-approved therapy for this condition.

Key Highlights:
In a meta-analysis, the proportion of patients identified as aggressive throughout their acute psychological treatment ranged between 8% and 44%.
Alzheimer's disease (AD) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) raise the likelihood of agitation and aggression. According to a meta-analysis, the prevalence of aggression in patients with AD and MCI was 27.8% and 7.4%, respectively.
Agitation and aggressive behavior were noticed in 20% of outpatients in the community but in 40%-60% of nursing home residents.
Multiple studies reveal that agitation affects 50% or more of the 6.7 million adults 65 and older in the United States who have Alzheimer's dementia.
Although multiple types of aggression occur frequently, verbal aggression accounts for up to 75% of incidents.
As many as 1.7 million instances of acute agitation are probably treated yearly in the United States emergency departments, with countless more in the prehospital setting.
