“Across the globe, more than 112 million units of blood are donated annually, according to WHO, of which over 50% comes from high-income countries. However, donation growth is declining due to increase in surgical methodologies that create scope limiting the use of blood losses associated with surgeries,” notes the report’s authors.

Market Restraints Include Government Policies, Price Pressures

Though generally positive, there are several factors which are working to restrain the market, the report notes. Chief among those are government policies, led by a 2.3% medical device tax in the U.S. Meanwhile, intense competition in segments like the point-of-care testing market means manufacturers have encountered strong pricing pressure.
