Surgical Site Infection (SSI) Market Poised for Steady Growth till 2023

With every passing day, the number of surgical procedures being performed across the world is increasing, due to the rise in the prevalence of various diseases and disorders. As per the World Bank, in the U.S., the surgery rate in 2012 was 30,537 per 100,000 people. Australia recorded 28,907 surgeries per 100,000 individuals, in 2015. Surgeries are sensitive procedures, as they involve the piercing of human skin to expose internal organs, which carries a risk of infection. Even after taking all precautions, severe surgical site infections (SSI) are common, which is why the need to cure these as soon as possible is growing.

The global surgical site infection market valued $4.0 billion in 2017, and it is predicted to progress at a 6.4% CAGR during 2018–2023, to ultimately reach $5.9 billion in 2023. Apart from the increasing volume of surgeries, the prevalence of SSIs is also surging, in high- as well as low- and middle-income countries (LMIC). The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) reported 18,364 SSI cases for a total of 967,191 surgeries in 2013–2014. Further, as per the National Health Surveillance Agency (ANVISA), SSIs account for almost 16% of all hospital-acquired infections in Brazil.

Currently, North America is the largest user of anti-SSI products, due to its huge healthcare sector, high surgery volume, presence of leading SSI product manufacturers, well-developed healthcare industry, and growing awareness on the topic. Within the region, the SSI market growth in the U.S. would be faster, as the federal government spends a considerable portion of its gross domestic product (GDP) on healthcare. The National Health Expenditure Accounts (NHEA) reported an increase of 4.3% in the nation’s healthcare spending during 2015–2016.

During the forecast period, the demand for such products would see the sharpest rise in the Asia-Pacific and Rest of the World regions, which are home to a large number of LMICs. As per the World Health Organization (WHO), one in every 10 people undergoing surgeries in LMICs get SSIs. Therefore, the WHO has a set of guidelines, known as Patient Safety Solutions, which recommend doctors to keep their hands sanitized, in order to prevent SSIs.

Therefore, as people become more aware about SSIs, the demand for preventive and therapeutic products would grow further.

How Rising Business Competition Impacts Speech Analytics Market?

There is a popular saying, “The customer is always right”. Despite its literal meaning not always being true, what it actually means is that all requests, queries, and demands of customers must be tended to, if a company hopes to retain them and make consistent profit. In today’s times of intense competition, where fortunes can be made and destroyed in days, providing a satisfactory customer experience has become more important than ever. This is why an increasing number of companies are setting up customer support departments or outsourcing the task to contact centers.

Thus, with the increasing number of contact centers, the speech analytics market is also prospering. Compared to $1,010.4 million in 2018, the sale of such software is expected to be worth $2,910.1 million in 2024, with the revenue increasing at a 19.9% CAGR during 2019–2024 (forecast period). As the term suggests, speech analytics software studies the speech on various parameters, such as volume and pitch, to determine the emotions of the speaker. Currently, among all applications of such software — call monitoring, agent performance monitoring, customer experience management, and risk and compliance management — it is mostly widely used for customer experience management.
Speech analytics determines why the customer has called, their mood, and reactions to the products and services on offer. This helps customer support teams with pinpointing the areas where the team members need improvement, while interacting with customers, with a thorough knowledge of customers’ expectations and requirements. The better companies serve their customers, the more likely they are to retain them, which is why customer experience management has become an important focus area. As a result, even in the coming years, the use of speech analytics for this very purpose will grow the fastest.
The growing usage of this software is being mirrored by a shift of people from phonetic transcription to phonetic indexing. Compared to the former, the latter is easier, as it doesn’t require the scanning of a vast dictionary of words, which is also why it is faster than transcription. Speech analytics software working on the indexing method converts audible speech into a series of phonemes, following which it scours for just a predetermined words’ list. Therefore, with such solutions, a higher call volume can be analyzed without an increase in the number of servers.

Protein Extracts from Single-Cell Protein Sources Market Growing due to Increasing Animal Feed Production

The protein extracts from single-cell protein sources market is being driven by the rising awareness on the environmental and human health benefits of alternative proteins, increasing initiatives by public and private-sector firms to meet the demand for these, and their surging usage in animal feed. From $5.3 billion in 2017, the market is expected to grow to $8.7 billion by 2023, witnessing a CAGR of 8.6% during 2018–2023 (forecast period). A number of unicellular organisms, including algae, fungi, yeast, and bacteria, serve as sources of proteins.

Among these, proteins extracted from algae held the largest share, of 33.4%, in terms of value, in the protein extracts from single-cell protein sources market in 2017. This is attributed to the heavy demand for proteins derived from algae, such as chlorella and spirulina, in several sectors, including pharmaceutical and biotechnology, food and beverage, animal feed, cosmetics, and agriculture. As a result, this source category would also witness the highest CAGR, of 9.3%, during the forecast period.

Another factor driving the protein extracts from single-cell protein sources market progress is the initiatives being taken to raise the awareness on the benefits of alternative proteins. For instance, Algae Biomass Organization (ABO) and Valensa International entered into a partnership in 2017, to make people aware of the sustainability of microalgae as a protein source for animal feed, human nutrition, fuel, water treatment, and chemical production. Similarly, conferences and workshops are conducted by the European Algae Biomass Association (EABA), to promote the usage of algae-based products, owing to their environmental benefits.

In 2017, North America made the largest revenue contribution, of 37.3%, to the industry, as a result of the presence of established market players and a mature biotechnology sector. Further, several conferences on how to deal with challenges in protein product development also drive the regional market. During the forecast period, Asia-Pacific (APAC) would witness the highest protein extracts from single-cell protein sources market CAGR, of 9.8%, owing to a surge in animal feed production and usage of spirulina for dealing with malnutrition in pregnant women, infants, children, and AIDS patients.

Thus, the demand for proteins extracted from unicellular organisms would rise, owing to the surging awareness about their benefits for human health and environment and increasing requirement for animal feed.

Due to the rising vulnerabilities, the IT system of companies is rapidly being hacked, with the intent of causing harm. The impact of such attacks on integrity, availability of data, confidentiality, and complexity of attacks can be studied to determine the severity of the vulnerabilities. Though the internet has opened doors of growth, it has also increased the risk of cyber-attacks.


During the forecast period, faster growth in the market would be experienced by the service category, based on component. This would be because of the fact that businesses around the world are increasing availing of maintenance, training, support, consulting, and other services related to patch management, to keep their security protocols up to date. In 2019, the healthcare sector held a significant revenue share, on the basis of end user, as the process delivers cyclic updates, which helps clinical systems prioritize their updates.
