The prevalence of hospital-acquired
infections (HAI) has been growing rapidly, with HAIs becoming among the key
cause of mortality and morbidity in hospitalized patients, as per the World
Health Organization (WHO). These infections are caused primarily by bacteria. Strains
of bacteria found in medical settings are more resistant to antibiotics those
found outside the hospital, owing to the fact that antibiotics are utilized
frequently in hospitals. According to the WHO, about 7 and 10 of every 100
patients ion developed and developing countries, respectively, who are
hospitalized, acquire at least one HAI at any
given time.
Attributed to this, the demand for infection surveillance at hospitals and other medical facilities is growing rapidly.
Traditionally, the surveillance of HAIs was done by reviewing medical charts,
ward rounds, and paper-based reports of microbiologic results. The analysis
then was done by assembling hand-written data or entering the information into
a computer database, manually. However, these methods are labor intensive, time-consuming,
and quite inefficient for coping with the rising complexity of antibiotic
resistance. Because of this, these methods are become obsolete and witnessing a
shift to computer-based surveillance. Due to these factors, the global infection
surveillance solutions market is predicted to advance at a considerable
pace in the coming years.
The infection surveillance technology providers offer both services and
software, between which the larger demand is projected to be created for
infection surveillance software in the years to come. A number of vendors are
offering comprehensive and flexible infection surveillance software, which is
being rapid adopted by healthcare facilities. Software can be customized for
real-time and instant contact tracking tasks and effective organization
surveillance. Both on-premises and web-based solutions are offered by vendors.
Other than this, the demand for infection surveillance services, such as
training & consulting, implementation, and product support &
maintenance, is also expected to increase in the near future.

Hence, the requirement for infection
surveillance solutions is growing due to the rising prevalence of HAIs across
the globe.
