Ultrasound uses sound waves to produce picture of the inside of the body. It is used to diagnose certain medical conditions like causes of pain, swelling and infection in the body's internal organs and to examine a baby in pregnant women and the brain and hips in infants. Ultrasound also guides biopsies, diagnose heart conditions, and assess damage after a heart attack. These probes are available in a wide range of sizes, shapes, frequencies, with each probe optimized to specific clinical imaging applications and resulting image formats. Hence it is crucial to know the appropriate methods for cleaning and reprocessing transducers between examinations in order to comply with the clinical guidelines and to avoid putting patients and users at risk of cross-contamination. All ultrasound probes must be cleaned once the patient is diagnosed. 

The several process can be implemented for disinfection of ultrasound probe like high-Level Disinfection process which can be performed either manually using a commercially available or automatically with an automated probe reprocessor. Also chemical sterilization can be accomplished using solutions approved for sterilization however it requires a much longer soak time than HLD. Moreover, Transducers should be stored in a clean environment between uses to protect them from damage or contamination, and the storage method should comply with manufacturers' recommendations. Using technologically advanced procedures offers fast, easy and cost-effective methods that improve staff efficiency, patient safety and compliance with audits.

Ultrasound Probe Disinfection Market Report Outlook

The key factor for the growth of market is increasing adoption of automated high-level disinfection systems for critical and semi-critical ultrasound probes as the use of diagnostic ultrasound has spread considerably worldwide in recent decades due to availability of U.S probe that enable a wide range of clinical application therefore it has become necessary to use probe disinfection for performance benefits. Besides government regulations and guidelines in developed markets for probe disinfection is growing due to increasing incidence of hospital-acquired infections due to improper reprocessing of ultrasound probes. Moreover, technological advancements in ultrasound probes is propelling the growth of ultrasound probe disinfection market.

The instruments holds the significant market share due to presence of various high cost instruments in market. The consumables is further  bifurcated into formulation which includes disinfectant liquids, disinfectant sprays and disinfectant wipes moreover  disinfectants Type which include high-level disinfectants and intermediate/low-level disinfectants and detergents include enzymatic detergents and non-enzymatic detergents .The  consumables  is anticipated to witness the fastest growth due to high demand of product as these are disposable.

ULTRASOUND PROBE DISINFECTION MARKET BY PROCESS 

Depending on the process ultrasound probe disinfection is available in high-level disinfection, intermediate/low-level disinfection. High-level disinfection process is expected to witness the fastest growth due to rising awareness. Moreover, increasing life-threatening pathogens had led manufacturer to develop technologically advanced disinfection process to remove pathogens from the instruments and devices used in healthcare facilities. However, Intermediate/low-level disinfection is expected to leads the market owing to significant share. Also, Intermediate/low-level disinfection is the standard procedure in hospitals facilities which is boosting the growth of market.

ULTRASOUND PROBE DISINFECTION MARKET BY PROBE TYPE

The Ultrasound probe disinfection have different type of probes like convex transducers, endocavitary transducers, linear transducers, phased array transducers, transesophageal echocardiography (tee) transducers. Linear transducers ultrasound probe is viewed as an adjunct to conventional endoscopic ultrasonography with combined ultrasound endoscopes. The linear transducers probe uses high frequency ultrasound to create high resolution images of structures near the body surface. Hence, it make the probe ideal for vascular imaging and procedure.

ULTRASOUND PROBE DISINFECTION MARKET BY END USER

The ultrasound probe disinfection has its major end users in ambulatory surgical centers, diagnostic centers, hospitals and clinics and research centers. Diagnostic centers is expected to have significant growth in the upcoming years due to increasing demand for imaging techniques. Moreover diagnostic center is creating opportunity as 70% of medical decisions are based on diagnostics. Testing is further playing a key role in preventive health checks, personalized medicine and monitoring. Whereas hospitals and clinics holds the significant market share for global ultrasound probe disinfection and is expected to grow at fastest rate during the forecast period. Segment growth is attributed to the increasing number of diagnostic imaging and in vitro fertilization procedures performed. In addition, increased expenditure on healthcare infrastructure by public and private organizations around the globe is expected to boost segment growth.
