Lung Function Tests Market Overview 

The Lung Function Tests Market is expected to reach USD 8.84 Billion by 2032 at 7.5% CAGR during the forecast period 2023-2032. Lung function tests diagnose disorders related to the lungs like asthma, some respiratory infections, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and many more. Lung function tests determine the functioning of the lungs and also determine the breathing rate of a person. These are the part of the lung tests routines so performed by the pulmonary doctors. They suggest performing lung tests for diagnosing diseases related to the lungs. They plan the treatment and decide whether they will continue with it or change it or will not perform the treatment. Before the operation, the type of lung function test plays a vital role in diagnosing several respiratory diseases and lung-related disorders.

The pulmonary testing devices are used for the identification of pulmonary impairment and some respiratory issues. An increase in air pollution and some of the climatic changes have accelerated the business sector. These devices are used for testing the rate of flow, measuring the lung volume capacity, and used for exchanging gas. These systems are used for diagnosing some of the lung disorders and are used for selecting therapeutics related to disorders of the lungs.

COVID 19 ANALYSIS 

The outbreak of COVID has hampered the ecosystem. It was marked that it majorly affected the respiratory system of the people. The most common symptoms observed by people who were affected by SARS CoV-2 are that they were unable to breathe properly and there was a lowering of oxygen level in them. The lung testing devices became a boom in the last year as these types of equipment were used for identifying the infection.

People throughout the world are suffering from this disease. This pandemic increased the demand for oxygen cylinders, testing kits, and ventilators. The government has discovered many applications that will help you to know whether you are affected by COVID or not. This has given a hike to the lung testing market.

It was in January 2023 that CAIRE Inc, a subsidiary of NGK SPARK PLUG CO., LTD., made an acquisition of MGC Diagnostics Corporation with the aim of expanding its knowledge and expertise in pulmonary disease. The company acquired MGC Diagnostics Corporation, a leader in diagnostic solutions for early detection and management of pulmonary diseases. This is one of the strategies that the company has put in place to expand its respiratory care solutions through acquiring MGC Diagnostic’s diagnostic solutions among others. By including MGC Diagnostic’s diagnostic solution in its product offering, CAIRE hopes to have all products and services required for diagnosing, treating and managing respiratory diseases.

CAIRE Inc intends to utilize combined experience, skills and resources to facilitate innovation, increase product variety as well as improve outcomes for patients under respiratory care.

In May 2022, a United Kingdom med-tech firm called Bedfont Scientific Ltd entered into a partnership with MGC Diagnostics Corporation, where it became the authorized distributor for their goods.

VYAIRE introduced the ARTIQ PFT product, which is an automated tool using artificial intelligence for interpreting pulmonary function tests in pulmonologists, hence standardizing diagnostic interpretation in April 2021. Therefore this revolutionary development may likely lead to more demand from hospitals and other diagnostic laboratories that would drive growth within the global market for pulmonary function testing.

Respiratory medical devices manufacturer KoKo PFT formed a joint production alliance with EirMed in June 2021.

Mirion Technologies acquired Biodex Medical Systems Inc. in September 2020, thereby increasing the presence of Mirion’s medical portfolio with enhanced offerings specifically designed for the pulmonary function testing market and possibly wider access among healthcare facilities globally due to the availability of advanced diagnostics tools.

VYAIRE signed a distribution agreement with Spirosure Inc. regarding Fenom Pro Asthma monitor expanding FeNO measurement technology across top respiratory labs within the United States and Europe back in January this year, thereby helping to improve diagnostic capabilities for asthma management. In this way, the partnership is expected to influence the pulmonary function testing market through improved diagnostic capability for asthma management.
