FRANCE INSULIN DRUGS AND DELIVERY DEVICES MARKET - GROWTH, TRENDS, COVID-19 IMPACT, AND FORECASTS (2022 - 2027)
The France Insulin Drugs and Delivery Devices Market is expected to register a CAGR of more than 3.25% over the forecast period.
One of the most significant risk factors for a severe course of COVID-19 is diabetes mellitus. This risk is believed to be influenced by several variables that are frequently present in diabetes mellitus, such as advanced age, a proinflammatory and hypercoagulable condition, hyperglycemia, and underlying comorbidities (hypertension, cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease, and obesity). Diabetes was quickly recognized as a risk factor for bad results during the COVID-19 pandemic. That’s why managing or delaying cases of type 2 diabetes became more important than ever before. Several studies have confirmed that chronic diseases like diabetes are associated with adverse outcomes in COVID-19 patients.
Diabetes is associated with many health complications. Comparing the population with and without diabetes, those with diabetes have a 300% increased risk of being hospitalized and, thus, incur more healthcare expenses compared to non-diabetic people. People with diabetes face a higher chance of experiencing serious complications from COVID-19. In general, people with diabetes are more likely to experience severe symptoms and complications when infected with a virus. Diabetes and high glucose levels are associated with increased complications, respiratory failure, and mortality in hospitalized patients with coronavirus.
Diabetes has the highest prevalence among all chronic conditions covered 100% by France's statutory health insurance (SHI), and the number of covered patients has doubled in the past 10 years. France is one of the major countries in the Europe region. The pandemic also highlighted opportunities for continuing and expanding innovations in the delivery of diabetes care, through virtual consultations between healthcare providers and people with diabetes, and the use of diabetes technology. Crisis management has created unprecedented interest in remote care from both patients and providers and removed many long-standing regulatory barriers. Thus, the COVID-19 outbreak increased the insulin market's growth.
Key Market TrendsGrowing Diabetes and Obesity Population in FranceIn France, Diabetes Population is expected to increase with a CAGR greater than 2.9% over the forecast period. France is one of the 59 nations in the IDF EUR area. Moreover, in 2021, 61 million individuals in the Europe Region and 537 million people worldwide have diabetes; by 2045, this number will increase to 69 million. According to a survey by the EU Commission, the number of persons in France who have chronic diabetes is the greatest, and one in 10 people in France is suffering from diabetes. The prevalence of diabetes is significant in France, although the rules' target of 80% compliance with advised healthcare consultations isn't always met. To promote proactive therapy adjustment and decrease therapeutic inertia, new techniques that focus on patient and physician education and information are necessary to lessen the burden of complications and hospitalizations associated with diabetes.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), about a million are diagnosed with diabetes in France. The prevalence of diabetes is growing among all ages in France, which can be attributed to the growing obese population, along with unhealthy diets and sedentary lifestyles of people. Thus, the rising prevalence of diabetes and obesity, growing awareness, regarding diabetic care, healthcare expenditure, and technological advancements are a few factors that are further driving the market in France. In France, there is a centralized health care system their all the reimbursement decisions are taken at a national level and then applies to all the countries.
Leading manufacturers are focusing on technological innovations and developing advanced products to gain a substantial market share. There has been a significant rise in insulin delivery systems technology, ranging from insulin injections to insulin pumps. Technological innovations and advancements offer many conveniences in maintaining blood glucose levels.
Therefore, owing to the increasing diabetes prevalence the studied market is anticipated to witness growth over the analysis period.
The Insulin Pumps Segment is Expected to Witness Highest Growth Rate Over the Forecast PeriodAn insulin pump is a device, which delivers insulin continuously or whenever required automatically. The pump mimics the human pancreas. The insulin infusion pump works as an alternative to the traditional system of daily injections or an insulin pen.
Insulin Pump held a major market share in the insulin delivery devices market in 2021 and is expected to grow with a CAGR of more than 4.3% in the market during the forecast period because of the increasing technological advancement and its preference over other traditional methods due to continuous insulin administration.Insulin pump therapy is a well-established insulin administration method for type 1 diabetes (T1DM) people. Pumps are a validated, time-tested therapeutic option in T1DM at all ages, enabling near-physiological insulin delivery in situations where the pancreas does not produce insulin. There are even pump models with remote controls enabling parents of young children to either suspend or bolus insulin from a distance when the child is playing or eating. The insulin infusion pumps reduce the large swings in blood glucose levels, induce less pain, and deliver more accurately when compared to injections. These advantages of insulin pumps over the traditional delivery system are expected to boost the market.
The use of continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII or insulin pumps) and continuous glucose monitoring systems (CGMs) has improved the care and quality of life for patients and is widely used in the ambulatory setting. Increasingly, this technology is also being used in the hospital setting. The COVID-19 pandemic emphasizes the need for good glycemic control in patients with diabetes, in large part because most observational studies have reported that poorly controlled diabetes is associated with a higher risk for hospitalization and death from a viral illness. The frequency of monitoring glucose levels depends on the type of diabetes, which varies from patient to patient. Type-1 diabetic patients need to check their blood glucose levels at regular intervals, monitor their blood glucose levels, and adjust the insulin dosing accordingly, which is likely to drive segment growth during the forecast period.
Competitive LandscapeThe France Insulin Drugs and Delivery Devices Market is consolidated, with few significant and generic players. Mergers and acquisitions that happened between the players in the recent past have helped the companies strengthen their market presence. Eli Lilly and Boehringer Ingelheim together have an alliance in developing and commercializing Basaglar (Insulin Glargine). Additionally, the players in the recent past helped the companies strengthen their market presence; for example, Novo Nordisk collaborated with Ypsomed to provide better insulin therapy solutions.
