Kidney function tests measure creatinine, protein in urine and other markers to find and track kidney disease.
Key segments of the kidney Function Tests market include test (Serum Creatinine, eGFR and Urine Albumin) and setting (Labs, Point of Care and Home).
Demand for earlier and faster diagnosis, growth of testing outside hospitals, new molecular technologies and the shift to preventive care are driving the kidney Function Tests market.
Home testing, connected devices that send results to doctors and multiplex tests that check many conditions at once give the kidney Function Tests market room to grow, especially in emerging markets.
Pricing pressure, uneven reimbursement for new tests, regulatory approval times and the need for skilled lab staff hold back the kidney Function Tests market.
The kidney Function Tests market is moderately concentrated. Leading companies compete on product innovation, clinical evidence, pricing and geographic reach, and use partnerships and acquisitions to expand their portfolios.
Medical devices do not need approval before sale, but suppliers must notify them to the WAND database run by Medsafe.[1] Pharmac decides which medicines and medical devices the public health system pays for.[2]
Medical device rules, such as the US FDA 510(k) and PMA pathways and the EU Medical Device Regulation, govern how kidney Function Tests products are approved and monitored. Reimbursement codes and hospital purchasing policies decide how widely they are used in New Zealand.
