The infection
control market is expected to grow at a CAGR of around 6%
during the forecast period. The market growth has been fueled due
to the increase in hospital-acquired infections (HAIs), the rise in the number
of surgical procedures and the aging population. However, the high prices of
sophisticated sterilization equipment may hinder the market growth.
Infection control is a methodical approach within healthcare
and associated environments to avoid infection transmission, especially where
pathogens like bacteria, viruses, and fungi are concerned. Infection control
involves an array of processes such as sterilization, disinfection, hand
washing, isolation practices, and environmental cleaning. The purpose of these
practices is to reduce the risk of cross-contamination among patients,
personnel, and equipment. Infection control is needed to ensure patient safety,
lower healthcare expenditures, and uphold public health practices.

Escalating HAIs Accelerate Demand for Robust Infection
Control Measures
The increase in hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) is the
key factor behind the high growth rate of the infection control market. With
the surge in number of patient admissions and surgical procedures, there is
rising pressure on healthcare facilities to introduce efficient protocols to
lower the risk of infection. HAIs not only extend lengths of stay but also
increase the likelihood of complications and significantly drive treatment
costs. Therefore, healthcare providers are increasingly investing in sterilization
technologies, disinfectants, and compliance training for healthcare workers.
Additionally, government agencies and international health organizations are
enacting strict protocols that require stringent infection control measures,
due to which hospitals and clinics are upgrading systems. This sense of urgency
is particularly common in developing countries, where construction of new
infrastructures to sustain international standards of care is currently in
progress. The clear linkage between patient safety outcomes and infection
control protocols is leading hospitals to consider these standards not only as
compliance mechanisms but as integral aspects of healthcare quality assurance.
Low-Temperature Plasma Sterilization Revolutionizes
Infection Control
One of the notable infection control innovations is the use
of low-temperature hydrogen peroxide gas plasma sterilization. This method has
been notably useful for the sterilization of heat-sensitive surgical equipment,
including endoscopes and other sophisticated surgery equipment. Unlike steam
sterilization, this method does not require high temperatures, making it a
safer method for delicate equipment to be used while it effectively removes
microbial residues. Its high speed of processing also ensures higher turnover
of instruments, which is important in high-demand environments such as
emergency rooms and operating rooms. Hydrogen peroxide gas plasma sterilization
also does not leave toxic residues behind, thus being safer for patients and
medical workers. The extensive application of this process is not only
improving the levels of sterilization but also minimizing equipment downtime
and optimizing overall hospital workflow efficiency. With health centers
increasingly offering surgical procedures and using more complex devices, this
invention is instrumental in keeping infections under control without
threatening working speed or equipment lifespan.
