Bilirubin Meter

Bilirubin Meter

Bilirubin meters are devices designed for the measurement of the concentration of bilirubin present in the blood or clinical specimen there are several types of bilirubin meters, including those that use spectroscopy, turbidity and impedance. The level of bilirubin should be interpreted in conjunction with other laboratory results and clinical findings. A high level of bilirubin can be a sign of a number of conditions including haemolytic anaemia, liver disease and neonatal jaundice. On the contrary, lower levels of bilirubin may be seen in patients taking antibiotics or may be due to other medical conditions including Gilbert’s syndrome.

Thus, all these factors are anticipated to fuel the market growth in the forecast period.

• Based on the product, the market is bifurcated into portable bilirubinometers and benchtop bilirubinometers. Amongst these, the portable bilirubinometer is anticipated to grow with a significant CAGR in the forecasted period. These are typically small and lightweight, making them easy to carry and use in a variety of settings, including hospitals, clinics, and home care settings. They use a small amount of blood, typically from a fingertip or heel stick, to measure the level of bilirubin. Thus, this factor is contributing towards the growth of this segment.
• Based on end-users the market is segmented into hospitals, clinics and research institutes. Amongst these, the hospital segment is anticipated to grow with a significant CAGR in the forecasted period. Hospitals play a crucial role in the early detection and management of liver disease, including jaundice and hepatitis which can help prevent severe complications of diseases. Additionally, hospitals are equipped with the necessary medical equipment and staff to provide comprehensive care to patients with a wide range of medical conditions and reduce the overall burden of the disease on the healthcare system. These elements are driving the demand for the hospitals
