IVD quality control market is categorized into quality assurance services quality control (QC)

The global In Vitro Diagnostics (IVD) Quality Control Market is anticipated to reach USD 1.13 billion by 2024. The rising number of certified clinical laboratories requires quality control (QC) services to maintain their standards, associated with the increasing acceptance of third party providers of quality control services, to ensure the accurate and reproducible test results, and better outcomes which is anticipated to drive the growth. 

For the establishment of definite standards of quality, the internal Quality Control (QC) programs and the external QAS (Quality Assurance Schemes) is very important to ensure validity and reliability of the test results obtained by the IVD devices. These programs are essential in confirming the delivery of patient diagnostic outcomes, which are reliable and without errors, such as misdiagnosis because of device-related errors, which can impact the health of the patient.

The regulation of these In vitro diagnostics devices are controlled by the respective regulatory bodies, which includes the U.S. FDA (Food and Drug Administration), the International Medical Device Regulators Forum (IMDRF), the European Commission, the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU) and the Brazilian National Health Surveillance Agency (ANVISA).

The currently undergoing, extensive R&D related activities beside the introduction of new laws with the aim of improving the efficacy and safety levels of the IVD services are anticipated to drive market growth. For example, in September 2012, a new regulation for IVD devices was published by the European Commission targeted to enhance the transparency, safety and the traceability without constraining innovation. These new regulatory inclusions are anticipated to drive the market growth.

Type Insights

On the type basis, the IVD quality control market is categorized into quality assurance services quality control (QC), and data management. The QC schemes are appropriate to plasma-based, whole blood-based and serum-based products. In 2016, QC market was one of the largest segments because of the rapidly developing IVD technologies and the existence of numerous internal QC programs for the different features of the IVD device-based procedures of testing

Application Insights

There are numerous applications of the IVDs, which includes haematology, immunology, coagulation, clinical chemistry, molecular diagnostics and microbiology. Amongst these all, molecular diagnostics is anticipated to be the fastest growing market segment with 4.88% CAGR. The frequent usage of the technologies in the molecular diagnostics, such as gene expression and PCR, high accuracy and specificity are some of the responsible factors associated with its high growth.

End-use Insights

The hospitals market segment was valued the largest market segment of over 46.0% in 2016 owing to the high application of IVD tests in hospitals and the necessity of obedience with the IVD directives for the product traceability. The home care market segment is anticipated to observe a lucrative progression owing to the persistent increase in the usage devices for point-of-care testing. The rise in adoption of microchip technology which is used to handle fluids in IVD equipment, as well as the enhanced production processes and the miniaturization technology are creating efficient point-of-care devices, which are very less susceptible to errors.
