Latin America Insulin Infusion Pump Market Analysis
The Latin America Insulin Infusion Pump Market size is estimated at USD 117.08 million in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 150.14 million by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 5.10% during the forecast period (2024-2029).
The pandemic that everyone was talking about before COVID-19, is a challenge to health systems and a threat to their financial viability. The improper use of corticosteroids and the presence of diabetes mellitus in patients during the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic marked the beginning of an increased incidence of fungal infections such as aspergillosis and mucormycosis in patients with this emerging viral infection. More than 200 cases have been reported in the literature in Latin America, ranging from Mexico to Argentina. Most cases have come from Brazil. Before COVID-19, the number of cases had been increasing while the mortality rate had been decreasing. Access to telemedicine is critical for managing chronic diseases in children, such as type 1 diabetes. Telemedicine was implemented in Latin American countries because of the COVID-19 pandemic, which had a positive impact on the health system. Telemedicine could result in financial savings by avoiding transportation expenses, class and parental working hours lost, time lost for transportation to distant referral health centers, and improving the quality of life, socioeconomic level, and environment."
An insulin pump (also known as continuous subcutaneous insulin therapy) is a medical device used to administer insulin to treat diabetes. Insulin pumps make it possible to deliver continuous infusion amounts of insulin at regular intervals. It is predicted to result in long-term cost savings relative to multiple daily injections. The traditional pump includes the pump (including controls, a processing module, and batteries), a disposable reservoir for insulin (inside the pump), and a disposable infusion set, including a cannula for subcutaneous insertion (under the skin) and a tubing system to connect the insulin reservoir to the cannula. The device configuration may vary depending on the design. However, the application of infusion pumps is increasing significantly across the Latin American region.
