What Has Been the Progress and Growth of the Ultrasound Probe Disinfection Market in Recent Years?
The ultrasound probe disinfection market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The ultrasound probe disinfection market has seen rapid growth in recent years. It is expected to grow from $0.51 billion in 2024 to $0.58 billion in 2025, at a CAGR of 13.0%.
This growth is attributed to a heightened awareness of infection control, regulatory requirements, an increase in ultrasound procedures, and outbreaks of infectious diseases.
What Is The Expected Growth In The Ultrasound Probe Disinfection Market Size Evolve over the Forecast Period?
The ultrasound probe disinfection market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The ultrasound probe disinfection market is expected to grow to $0.93 billion by 2029, with a CAGR of 12.8%.
The growth is driven by factors such as rising healthcare spending, expanding healthcare infrastructure, a growing geriatric population, and a focus on patient safety. Trends include automation, UV-C disinfection, single-use probe covers, chemical-free solutions, and integration with ultrasound machines.
What Main Forces Are Fueling Expansion In The Ultrasound Probe Disinfection Market?
An upward trend in birth rates and pregnancy figures is predicted to stimulate expansion in the ultrasound probe disinfection market. The surge in birth rates and pregnancies represents a population increase. Higher standards of healthcare, societal customs, economic steadiness, and family planning services availability can contribute to this escalation in birth rates and pregnancies. It's vital to implement ultrasound probe disinfection during pregnancies to prevent infection spread between patients, securing the health of both the expectant mother and unborn child during prenatal ultrasound scans. For example, a report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a national public health body based in the US, indicated in January 2023 that there was a 1% increase in recorded births in the US, amounting to 3,664,292, contrasted to the preceding year. Simultaneously, the overall fertility rate also saw a 1% increase, reaching 56.3 births per 1,000 women aged 15–44, and the total fertility rate escalated to 1,664.0 births per 1,000 women. Hence, a rise in birth rates and pregnancies will fuel the expansion of the ultrasound probe disinfection market.

What Emerging Trends Are Influencing The Growth Of The Ultrasound Probe Disinfection Market?
Leading firms in the ultrasound probe disinfection industry are concentrating their efforts on creating high quality disinfection products such as disinfectant foam, with the aim of making the disinfection process more efficient for healthcare providers. The disinfectant foam is a foam-based cleaning solution for ultrasound probes utilized between patient consultations, in order to minimize the potential for cross-contamination and the spread of infection. For example, in June 2023, Parker Laboratories Inc., a medical products firm based in the US, gained FDA approval for a novel disinfectant foam named Tristel ULT. The foam is designed for high-level disinfection of ultrasound probes used on skin-surface transducers and within body cavities. The foam, which contains chlorine dioxide in a special formulation, is exclusively manufactured and provided to the US market via a strategic collaboration between Parker Laboratories and UK company, Tristel plc. Proven successful against several pathogens, including Mycobacterium tuberculosis and SARS-CoV-2, this extraordinary high-level disinfectant foam provides safe, effective disinfection, setting a new standard in ultrasound probe disinfection.
