The hyperbilirubinemia market has been comprehensively analyzed in IMARC's new report titled "Hyperbilirubinemia Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034". Hyperbilirubinemia refers to increased levels of bilirubin in the blood, a condition commonly observed in newborns but also affecting adults. Bilirubin is a yellow pigment produced by the breakdown of hemoglobin, and elevated levels can lead to jaundice, characterized by a yellowish tinge to the skin and eyes. In newborns, physiological hyperbilirubinemia usually occurs a few days after birth and generally resolves without treatment. However, excessive bilirubin levels can cause neurological damage, known as kernicterus, if left untreated. Adults suffering from this ailment may experience fatigue, abdominal pain, dark urine, and pale-colored stool, which often signal underlying conditions like liver disease or gallstones. The diagnosis of hyperbilirubinemia involves a combination of blood workups to measure bilirubin levels and liver function tests to determine the cause. In newborn patients, a transcutaneous bilirubinometer can be used to measure bilirubin levels through the skin, though a serum bilirubin test is often required for confirmation.
The increasing cases of various medical conditions, including hepatitis, cirrhosis, infections, etc., that can affect the liver as well as cause inflammation and dysfunction, leading to elevated bilirubin levels, are primarily driving the hyperbilirubinemia market. In addition to this, the inflating utilization of efficacious pharmaceuticals, such as ursodeoxycholic acid and phenobarbital, to regulate bilirubin levels and mitigate liver complications in individuals suffering from the illness is also creating a positive outlook for the market. Moreover, the widespread adoption of exchange transfusion process, that involves the removal and replacement of blood components, thereby aiding in the patient's recovery, is further bolstering the market growth. Apart from this, the rising usage of pharmacological interventions, such as enzyme-inducing agents or medications targeting bilirubin processing, for managing hyperbilirubinemia and preventing its detrimental effects is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. Additionally, the emerging popularity of gene therapy, since it involves the precise manipulation of genetic material to correct aberrations contributing to the underlying disorder, is also augmenting the market growth. Furthermore, the escalating application of advanced therapeutic approaches, including phototherapy, which utilizes light waves to facilitate the breakdown of excessive bilirubin in the body, is expected to drive the hyperbilirubinemia market during the forecast period.
IMARC Group's new report provides an exhaustive analysis of the hyperbilirubinemia market in the United States, EU5 (Germany, Spain, Italy, France, and United Kingdom) and Japan.
