Pericarditis Market Size

ID: MRFR//1315-CR | 156 Pages | Author: Rahul Gotadki| August 2019

The market for pericarditis is significantly influenced by the prevalence and incidence of this inflammatory condition affecting the pericardium, the thin sac surrounding the heart. The increasing recognition and diagnosis of pericarditis contribute to the demand for effective diagnostic tools and therapeutic interventions.
Pericarditis often occurs as a part of post-cardiac injury syndrome, where inflammation of the pericardium follows cardiac procedures or events. The market dynamics are shaped by the need for specialized care and targeted treatments to address pericarditis arising from cardiac injuries.
Pericarditis can also occur as a consequence of certain autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus. Leading from very idiopathic nature, the market is driven by these conditions that in turn requires holistic approach to deal effectively with underlying autoimmune causes.
Viral infections, especially РЕ which is endangering breathing, may be a rather frequent factor contributing to viral pericarditis. Looking at the influence of viral factors on the market, it brings to mind of antiviral drugs and the anti-inflammatory medicines which address such signs of viral infections as pericarditis for example.
The progress in diagnostic imaging invention is one of the reasons for the exact diagnosis and monitoring of the condition of pericarditis and this includes echocardiography, cardiac MRI, and CT scans. The market experience of this evolution involves the use of odorizing instruments which help doctors assess how extreme and broader the inflammatory pericardial process has gone.
Well-established standards and protocols for guidelines and the treatment are a major factor for the development of the pericarditis market. The standards of care which the healthcare workers follow provide appropriate solutions using medications and non-pharmacological ways and therefore aid in standardized and evidence based care.
Corticosteroid along with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is the class of commonly prescribed drugs used for the treatment of pericarditis. It will respond to the demand for merchants that work as anti-inflammatory that alleviate the symptoms and reduce pericardial inflammation.
Periodic research renders to the secession of new therapies for pericarditis, especially anti-inflammatory agents as well as biologics. The market adapts to pharmaceutical companies giving priority to solution oriented approaches for the particular pathophysiology of pericardial inflammatory

Global Pericarditis Market Overview


The Pericarditis Market Size was valued at USD 3.48 Billion in 2023. The Global Pericarditis industry is projected to grow from USD 3.74 Billion in 2024 to USD 6.09 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.56% during the forecast period (2024 - 2032).

Pericarditis is inflammation of the pericardium (the fibrous sac surrounding the heart). Symptoms typically include a sudden onset of sharp chest pain. The pain may also be felt in the shoulders, neck, or back. It generally is better sitting up and worse when lying down or breathing deeply.

The increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases such as heart attack & hypertension, favorable reimbursement policies, and increasing preference for minimally invasive procedures are the major drivers propelling market growth. However, the side-effects of anti-inflammatory drugs and the risk of bacterial infections constrain the growth of the pericarditis drugs market.


Kiniksa Pharmaceuticals, Ltd., a biopharmaceutical company with a portfolio of assets that are intended to regulate immunological pathways across a variety of diseases, announced the U.S. in March 2022.


ARCALYST ® (rilonacept) is a recombinant fusion protein that is subcutaneously injected on a weekly basis and is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of recurrent pericarditis and the reduction of the risk of recurrence in adults and children aged 12 years and older. This protein inhibits the signaling pathways of interleukin-1 alpha (IL-1α) and interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β). Recurrent pericarditis is a painful autoinflammatory cardiovascular disease that primarily manifests as chest pain. It is frequently linked to changes in electrical conduction and, in some cases, the accumulation of fluid around the heart, known as pericardial effusion.


Recurrent pericarditis is diagnosed in patients who experience additional pericarditis episodes after a symptom-free period of 4-6 weeks or longer. Quality of life is impacted by recurrent pericarditis symptoms, which restrict physical activities and result in frequent emergency department visits and hospitalizations. Each year, approximately 40,000 patients in the United States seek and receive treatment for recurrent pericarditis, according to data. Out of that group, approximately 14,000 patients experience a second or subsequent event (recurrence) as a result of persistent underlying disease or an insufficient response to conventional therapies, including nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs), colchicine, and corticosteroids.




Global Pericarditis Market Trends



The prevalence of cardiovascular diseases is found to be increasing over the last decade. This is attributed to the rising incidences of chronic diseases such as obesity and diabetes, which are major risk factors for cardiovascular diseases such as pericarditis, heart attack, and hypertension. As per the American Heart Association, nearly 92.1 million Americans were diagnosed with cardiovascular diseases in 2017. Additionally, it also stated that the prevalence is found to be higher in men than in women. Furthermore, in the same year, more than 92% of the patients exhibited major symptoms of heart diseases such as chest pain, heartburns, and strokes.

Recently, the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases is found to be increasing from the last few years. The American Heart Association stated that in 2015, 3.7% of the Asian population was diagnosed with chronic heart disease, while 21% of the people had hypertension.

Cardiovascular disease is one of the significant chronic disease responsible for a high death toll across the globe. This emphasizes the need for the development of new diagnostics and treatment devices around the world. The market is also affected by the increasing number of people diagnosed with these diseases at an early stage. Therefore, the prevalence of cardiovascular disease would drive the growth of the market during the forecast period.

The pericarditis drugs market is driven by the increasing number of patients suffering from cardiovascular diseases, thus signifying the need for the development of new technologically advanced devices for monitoring the heart rate. Continuous monitoring of cardiovascular diseases is an important aspect of cardiology. Therefore, the prevalence of pericarditis is increasing with a rise in the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases, fueling market growth.
