Global Dyspnea Treatment Market Size (2024 - 2029)

Dyspnea Treatment Market Analysis

Dyspnea Treatment Market is expected to grow at a registered CAGR of 4.5% during the forecast period.

According to the study titled "Dyspnea: The vanished warning symptom of COVID19 pneumonia" published in November 2020, dyspnea is slightly more common in patients who develop acute SARS-CoV-2 infection and have the worst clinical outcomes. In the general population, in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, dyspnea has been strongly linked to a poor prognosis. Moreover, as per the same source, less than 50% of SARS-COV-2 infected patients had been reported to experience dyspnea, a subjective feeling of breathing discomfort. As a result, it was anticipated that demand for dyspnea treatments would increase; however, because of a weak supply chain, the market suffers during a pandemic

The increase in the prevalence of COPD and asthma, which are the main causes of dyspnea and its causative symptoms, is what is driving the global market for dyspnea treatments. The main causes of dyspnea are a high prevalence of cardiopulmonary diseases, a rise in obesity among people, and alterations in lifestyle. According to the study titled "Prevalence and severity of different dimensions of breathlessness among elderly males in the population" published in the European Respiratory Journal in February 2022, breathlessness has been a common symptom of cardiorespiratory disease, as well as a prevalent symptom in the general population. Shortness of breath affects 10-25% of adults in their middle years and older during regular activity. Therefore, increasing dyspnea prevalence is anticipated to result in increased demand for its management and treatment, which will propel market expansion. Additionally, COPD and asthma are the main contributors to dyspnea, and the rising prevalence of these conditions will fuel market expansion over the forecast period. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) 2021 factsheet, asthma is a major non-communicable disease (NCD), that affects both children and adults. Globally, around 262 million people had asthma in 2020, which is expected to boost the demand of dyspnea treatment among people suffering from Asthma.

Furthermore, the global market for dyspnea treatments is expanding as a result of rising air pollution levels and toxicity exposure that causes breathlessness in the populace. According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency in June 2022, health could be negatively impacted by ozone in the air, especially on hot, sunny days when ozone levels could rise dangerously high. People with asthma, children, elderly people, and those who engage in outdoor activities were at risk from breathing ozone-containing air. Thus, increasing exposure to toxic substances and air pollution may significantly increase the likelihood of developing dyspnea, fueling the market growth over the projected period.

Thus, all aforementioned factors are expected to boost the market growth over the forecast period, however, the high cost associated with the treatment may restrain the market growth.
