Diagnostic tests play a crucial role in the medical care of patients with infections. Usual methods for detecting specific pathogens are generally time-consuming and expensive and require complex analytical instruments and skilled technicians. Also, rapid diagnostic tests are in demand as they can diagnose infectious diseases early, which helps prevent their spread. Rapid diagnostic kits for diagnosing infectious diseases are in high demand in the in-vitro diagnostics (IVD) industry due to the increasing awareness regarding infectious diseases in developing countries, expanding test menus, and advancements in molecular testing and lab-on-chip technology. As the demand for rapid diagnostic kits increases, manufacturing companies compete to develop next-generation rapid diagnostics platforms that are faster, easier to use, and more reliable.
In recent years, the incidence of infectious diseases has increased considerably. For instance, In India, every year, 30 million new cases of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and reproductive tract infections (RTIs) are reported. Also, the prevalence of HIV in the population aged 15–49 years is 0.2%. Although the prevalence rate is extremely low, it translates to 2.1 million people due to India’s high population. In addition to this, Indonesia has a high prevalence of tuberculosis. According to the WHO, in 2020, Indonesia accounted for 8.4% of all estimated tuberculosis cases globally. Hence, the growing incidence of infectious diseases further boosted the demand for rapid diagnostic kits to diagnose and manage various infectious diseases. Therefore, looking at the overall scenario, the growing prevalence of infectious diseases is estimated to drive the growth of the rapid diagnostic kits market in Indian Ocean region countries.

Infectious Diseases Segment to Register Largest Share in the Rapid Diagnostics Kits Market for Indian Ocean Region Countries in 2022
The infectious diseases testing segment is expected to account for the largest share of the rapid diagnostic kits market for Indian Ocean region countries in 2022. The high prevalence of target diseases and outbreaks of infectious diseases and the rise in the awareness and adoption of self-testing kits for infectious diseases are supporting the large market share of this segment.
Hospital & Clinics Segment to Dominate the Market in 2022
The hospital & clinics segment is expected to account for the largest share of the rapid diagnostic kits market in Indian Ocean region countries in 2022. The high rate of hospitalizations due to various diseases, the rising geriatric population, and increased healthcare access & expenditure are the primary factors contributing to the largest share of the market.
India: Fastest Growing Geography
India is expected to be the fastest-growing country during the forecast period. Factors driving the growth of this country include the rising prevalence of chronic diseases and initiatives taken by the government to promote health awareness in the country. According to National AIDS Control Organisation (NACO), around 6% of the adult population (around 30 million people) in India is diagnosed with reproductive tract infections (RTIs) each year, including sexually transmitted infections (STIs). As rapid diagnostics can facilitate accurate and quick diagnosis and management of diseases, the demand for rapid diagnostic kits in India is expected to grow exponentially in the coming years.
In recent years, government initiatives have increased to promote health awareness in the country. Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana, Ayushman Bharat, and Mission Indradhanush are some of the recent initiatives launched by the Government of India to promote health awareness. These initiatives are expected to boost the demand for rapid diagnostic kits leading to the growth of this market.
