Indirect Calorimeter Market Analysis
The indirect calorimeter market is anticipated to register a CAGR of about 4.1% over the forecast period.
- COVID-19 significantly impacted the indirect calorimeter market since obesity cases are expected to worsen the symptoms of COVID-19. For instance, according to the Center for Diseases and Prevention (CDC) September 2022 update, obesity raised the likelihood of COVID-19-related severe illness and put patients at risk for many other significant chronic diseases. Similarly, as per the article published in January 2021 in BMC Journal, obese individuals with COVID-19 were more likely to experience severe disease, require hospitalization, and pass away, according to numerous independent studies. However, as the COVID-19 restrictions are lifted, the market is anticipated to witness growth due to the rise in cases of obesity and the increase in technological advancements in the indirect calorimeter.
- Certain factors driving the market's growth include technological advancements in the indirect calorimeter and the rising burden of obesity. Obesity has significantly increased worldwide, especially over the past few decades. For instance, as per the World Obesity Atlas 2022, across the African region, 1 in 13 men (7.76%) and 1 in 5 women (20.41%) were predicted to have a body mass index of more than 30kg by 2030. This equates to approximately 27 million men and 74 million women in the region at risk of complications of obesity by 2030.
- Obesity has been linked to causing many other dreadful diseases and disorders, like cardiovascular diseases, mainly heart disease and stroke; diabetes; musculoskeletal disorders, especially osteoarthritis, a degenerative disease of the joints; and cancer, including endometrial, breast, ovarian, prostate, liver, gallbladder, kidney, and colon. The most popular technique for measuring energy expenditure in research settings is indirect calorimetry, which has produced previously unheard-of insights into the systems that regulate energy balance in response to weight loss or growth.
- Medical devices, such as indirect calorimeters, are becoming more important in the healthcare sector. The major issue faced by companies in developing and producing such medical devices is to be updated on the regulatory requirements and implement them in the process. Furthermore, the technological advancements in the indirect calorimeter are expected to drive market growth. For instance, as per the article published in August 2021 in PubMed, longitudinal indirect calorimeter (IC) measurements taken before, during, and after ICU care needed to become the new global standard of care for directing nutrition care given recent advancements in IC technology and the widespread availability of a new generation IC equipment.
- Hence, due to the increase in obesity cases and the rise in technological advancements in the indirect calorimeter, the studied market is expected to witness growth over the forecast period. However, the high cost of the devices and stringent regulatory guidelines is likely to restrain the market growth over the forecast period.
Indirect Calorimeter Market Trends
Hospital is Expected to Holds Significant Share in the Global Indirect Calorimeter Market Over the Forecast Period
- The hospital segment is anticipated to witness growth in the studied market in hospitals. Indirect calorimetry measures the gases in the air one exhales as a way to determine how many calories one's body burns at rest. Indirect calorimetry (IC) is the gold standard for evaluating calorie needs.
- Mostly, IC is used in all the patients of a tertiary care hospital, with more emphasis on the patient with obesity-related records. Use of IC can be used to target nutritional goals, as both protein and AC/REE (administered calories to resting energy expenditure ratio) show a trend toward better survival at the cost of increased length of stay.
- For instance, as per the article published in September 2022 in the Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) journal, the most precise method of calculating energy expenditure is indirect calorimetry, which gauges carbon dioxide and oxygen concentrations during inspiration and expiration. In intensive care units (ICUs), this method is now advised as the gold standard for determining energy needs.
- Furthermore, as per the article published in May 2022 in BioMed Central (BMC) journal, when energy objectives were based on IC, short-term mortality decreased by 23%. As per the same source, routine use of indirect calorimetry in critically ill patients showed potential improvements in the outcome with indirect calorimetry-guided nutrition therapy. Hence, the increase in advantages offered by IC alone and in combination is expected to boost the segment growth over the forecast period. Similarly, as per the article published in September 2022 in Springer, critically injured trauma patients found that ongoing IC led to better, more personalized care that took into account changing metabolic dynamics over time.
- Hence, due to the increase in advantages offered by IC in critically ill patients in hospital settings and the rise in demand for IC compared to direct calorimetry, the studied segment is expected to witness growth over the forecast period.
North America is Expected to Hold a Significant Share in the Indirect Calorimeter Market Over the Forecast Period
- North America is expected to hold a significant share of the studied market due to the increasing number of obese populations across the region and the availability of better healthcare infrastructure coupled with the rising awareness about facilities available for obese people.
- For instance, as per the World Obesity Atlas 2022, the estimated adult prevalence is likely to be 46.9% in the United States by 2030. As per the same source, the estimated population of women above the body mass index of 30 kg is likely to be 6,271,328 by 2030 in Canada. Hence, the rise in obesity cases is expected to increase the demand for a calorie-deficit lifestyle and calorie measurements, which is likely to boost market growth over the forecast period.
- Furthermore, as per the article published in November 2022 in Cell Report, the researchers assessed the impact of dietary alteration to a high-fat diet (HFD) on the intestine. A significant change in diet over time can affect metabolism and physiology. In the United States, a caloric imbalance may be one factor contributing to obesity. Hence, as the article demonstrated, there is an increased chance of adopting an indirect calorimeter in the studied region due to the chance of acquiring obesity in the population.
- Hence, due to the increase in the obesity population and rise in product launches, North America is expected to hold a significant market share over the forecast period.
