Disinfecting caps are attached to injection ports of needle-free connectors to ensure that needle-free connectors are always clean. These caps protect needleless connectors from contamination, thus reducing the risk of hospital-acquired infections such as the central line blood stream infection (CLABSI). Central line blood stream infection (CLABSI) is the major infection caused due to the usage of central line devices, as it accesses a major vein which is close to the heart. In some severe health conditions, it has to be inserted into the vein for weeks or months thatcan cause central line blood stream infections. Disinfecting caps are used for the prevention of central line-associated bloodstream infection. These caps are widely used to protect the access points/ports of Hemodialysis central venous catheters (HDCVCs). During hemodialysis, the repeated exposure of CVCs to the patients' veins can increase the risk of a Catheter-related Bloodstream Infection (CRBSI) in patients.
Market Dynamics
Increasing incidence of hospital-acquired infections is expected to drive he U.S. disinfecting cap market growth over the forecast period. For instance, in January 2020, according to the data published by t Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 30,100 Central Line-associated Bloodstream Infections (CLABSIs) occurs in intensive care units and acute care facilities in the U.S. every year. CLABSI is a serious blood-related infection that canprolong hospital stays, and increase the risk of mortality. Increasing incidence of central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) and other hospital acquired infections can be controlled and reduced by using disinfecting caps, and this is expected to drive the U.S. disinfecting cap market growth.
