Italy Diabetes Care Devices Market Analysis

The Italy diabetes care devices market is expected to reach about USD 1.2 billion registering a CAGR of 6.7% over the forecast period.

Within the first year since its inception, the COVID-19 pandemic was responsible for premature deaths, particularly among older individuals. Italy was the first country in Europe affected by COVID-19 and was among the countries with the highest mortality. Most people who died of COVID-19 were affected by the co-occurrence of two or more chronic conditions in the same individual. Several studies confirmed that chronic diseases like diabetes were associated with adverse outcomes in COVID-19 patients. The pandemic highlighted opportunities for continuing and expanding innovations in the delivery of diabetes care through virtual consultations between healthcare providers and people with diabetes and the use of diabetes technology.

According to the International Diabetes Federation 2021 reports, the prevalence of diabetes in adults in Italy was approximately 9.9%. The growing diabetic population acts as a driver for diabetes care devices. In obese individuals, the fat cells in the body release pro-inflammatory chemicals, which may make the body less sensitive to the insulin it produces by disrupting the function of insulin-responsive cells. Thus, these individuals need external insulin shots and must use a monitoring device, such as a glucometer. ​Many complications develop due to diabetes, including stroke, kidney disease, nerve damage, hearing loss, hypertension, eye complication, foot complication, skin complication, etc.

The Italian health system is highly decentralized, with most administrative and organizational powers held by the regions. The National Diabetes Plan defines priorities and provides guidelines to improve the quality of diabetes care with a patient-centered focus. Regional and local authorities are responsible for its implementation, which varies among the 20 regions​. Government policies play a critical role in improving the quality and safety of healthcare in a country at almost all levels of authority - state and local. Policy, systems, and environmental changes are essential to a long-term plan to prevent chronic diseases like diabetes. ​

Therefore, owing to the above factors, the studied market is anticipated to grow over the analysis period.

Italy Diabetes Care Devices Industry Segmentation

Diabetes care devices are the hardware, equipment, and software used by diabetes patients to regulate blood glucose levels, prevent diabetes complications, lessen the burden of diabetes, and enhance the quality of life. The Italy diabetes care devices market is segmented into management devices (insulin pumps (insulin pump device, insulin pump reservoir, and infusion set), insulin syringes, insulin cartridges in reusable pens, disposable insulin pens, and jet injectors) and monitoring devices (self-monitoring blood glucose (glucometer devices, blood glucose test strips, and lancets) and continuous glucose monitoring (sensors and durables)). The report offers the value (in USD million) and volume (in units million) for the above segments.

Italy Diabetes Care Devices Market Trends

The continuous glucose monitoring segment is expected to witness the highest growth rate over the forecast period

The continuous glucose monitoring segment is expected to record a CAGR of more than 10.8% over the forecast period.

Continuous Glucose Monitoring Devices are automated glucose monitoring systems that consist of a small device that can be worn on the body and held on by an adhesive patch. The sensor part of the device includes a cannula inserted into the top layer of skin and uses interstitial fluid samples to check glucose levels. Sensors are connected to a transmitter that can send data wirelessly to a dedicated mobile receiving device or smartphone. CGM makes it significantly easier to manage blood glucose levels by decreasing interruptions and allowing for better sleep. It also improves the mental health of patients or caregivers by reducing the overall mental load of managing diabetes, thereby enhancing the market prospects in the coming years.

The current CGM devices show a detailed representation of blood glucose patterns and tendencies compared to a routine check of glucose levels at set intervals. These technologies overcome many limitations of self-monitoring blood glucose by fingerprick and allow one to go beyond HbA1c to check glucose control in diabetes. Furthermore, the technological advancements in continuous glucose monitoring sensors opened new scenarios to assess, off-line, the effectiveness of individual patient therapeutic plans and stimulated the development of innovative online applications. It includes hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia alert systems and artificial pancreas closed-loop control algorithms.

The Italian National Healthcare Service (NHS) is ensuring universal coverage for all citizens. People living with diabetes can access all the medicines, devices, and medical services they need with no out-of-pocket expenditure. Overall, Italy includes a well-developed system of diabetes care, with numerous diabetes centers throughout the country and treatment free at the point of delivery.

The factors above are likely to drive segment growth during the forecast period.

Insulin disposable pens occupied the highest share in the management devices segment in the current year

Insulin Disposable pens occupied the highest market share of more than 43% in the management devices segment in the current year.

A disposable insulin pen contains a prefilled amount of insulin. When the pen is empty, it is thrown away. Insulin pens are much smaller, more portable than syringes, and contain the medicine preloaded into the delivery mechanism. The needles are easy to use and can be disposed of by twisting or snapping. The pens are usually color-coded, making it easier to know which type and how much insulin will be received from them. The disposable insulin pens are considered more consumer-friendly, as they are smaller and less noticeable than the classic vial-and-syringe. These devices are also more portable for consumers. Some pens are smart insulin pens that easily connect to an app on the phone to monitor blood sugar levels and remind when to take the next insulin dose.

Italian law regulates the clinical care of people with diabetes and creates a framework involving medical organizations, prevention programs, personnel training, and legal protection. The National Health Program is structured in essential levels of assistance that can be defined differently in the various regions. The National Health Program is structured in LEAs (essential levels of assistance). LEAs define all the medical assistance modalities offered by the INHS to citizens, with or without partial contributions, based on a patient's income. The Insulin pens are free for all diabetic patients in Italy, but they must still adhere to a nominal set of medical assistance guidelines that remain free of charge.

Technological development is gaining momentum in the insulin devices market. Several technological innovations were developed over many years, creating new types of devices that are much less cumbersome and more comfortable for patients than traditional ones. Such advantages helped increase these products' adoption in the Italian market.
