Japan Human Metapneumovirus (HMPV) Diagnostics Market Analysis

Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) diagnostics refers to system including RT-PCR tests to detect virus’s genetic material in respiratory samples. Diagnosis of HMPV virus begin with clinical examinations to identify symptoms which are similar to cold or flu, and healthcare professionals uses specific tests to confirm the infection. The Japan human metapneumovirus diagnostics market growth is driven by growing aging population and adoption of technological advancement, and growing incidence of respiratory disorders. According to National Library of Medicine report, prevalence of airflow obstruction was 5.3% in men and 2.1% in women, as of 2020, showing the increasing cases of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This leads to increased demand for HMPV diagnostics in the Japan. Tosoh Corporation, Seegene Inc, and Samsung Medison are some of the significant participants in the Japan HMPV diagnostics market.

Japan Human Metapneumovirus (HMPV) Diagnostics Market Growth Drivers and Restraints

Growth Drivers

• Rising incidence & re-emergence of HMPV infections – The Japan human metapneumovirus (HMPV) diagnostics market growth is driven by rising incidence of HMPV virus among older individuals, as they are more prone to infections and require regular check-ups. With the increased incidence of HMPV in the nation, demand for advanced diagnostic tools has increases, particularly in the post-pandemic period. Due to increased air pollutions, the cases of respiratory viruses and other disorders have gained momentum, and this trend focuses on harmfulness of HMPV virus, which can severely impact infant, youth, and elderly group. The symptoms of HMPV virus are similar to influenza, RSV, and COVID-19, this drives demand for accurate and timely diagnostics supported by early detection. Moreover, due to seasonal changes and epidemic outbreaks, medical industry is required to upgrade its diagnostic tools, contributing to the market growth.
• Technology advancement & shift to molecular diagnostics – Another major driver for Japan human metapneumovirus diagnostics market is technology advancement integration in diagnostic tools and shifting preference towards PCR-based and molecular examinations. These methods are proven to be effective, accurate, and allow to detect very low level of viral loads, and reduce testing time with increased cost-efficiency. As the demand for faster, quicker testing is increasing, which has emphasized organizations and institutions to highly invest in point-of-care (PCR) devices. Additionally, such advancement in diagnostic technology in hospitals and outpatient clinics, encourage patients to access these services.

Restraints

• Lack of standardized protocols & awareness – One of major challenges for Japan HMPV diagnostics market is due to lack of awareness and underdiagnosed in Japan as compared to other respiratory disorders like influenza and RSV. Many hospitals or healthcare professionals lacks knowledge of virus’s prevalence, which leads to delayed diagnosis. Moreover, lack of standardized diagnostic protocols across the medical sector, it leads to variability in testing accuracy and reporting, posing as a challenge in providing efficient an effective treatment to patients. These factors impact growth of overall HMPV diagnostics market.
