Product to Make Crucial Contribution for Growth of Global Smart Pills Market

Based on application, the market for smart pills is segmented into product, tools, and patient monitoring software. The product segment captured the largest revenue share in 2016 and includes the actual pill or capsule being swallowed by patients. Factors, such as the disposable nature of capsules, repeat usage, and high cost will enable the product segment to retain its dominance throughout the forecast period.

The product segment is further divided into capsule endoscopy and drug delivery. Conventional techniques of gastrointestinal diagnosis such as endoscopy and colonoscopy are being replaced by new methods such as capsule endoscopy. This latest technique is more convenient, minimally invasive, and highly advanced. The application of smart pills extends to various diseases related to the GI tract. These include Crohn's disease, obscure GI bleed, celiac disease, and small bowel tumors. The increasing prevalence of gastrointestinal disorders is anticipated to fuel the market at a lucrative rate over the forecast period.

North America to witness fastest growth in Global Smart Pills Market

North America dominates the smart pills market in terms of revenue, accounting for a share of 57.1% in 2019. The region is expected to retain its lead throughout the forecast period owing to factors such as technological advancements in the healthcare sector, an increase in the incidence of colorectal cancer, and regulatory approval of new products. The American Cancer Society estimates that 95,520 new cases of colon cancer and 39,910 new cases of rectal cancer will be diagnosed in the U.S. by the end of 2017. This is expected to provide growth opportunities for players operating in the U.S. market.

Asia Pacific is expected to grow significantly in the coming years, especially in Japan, China, and India. Key factors driving the Japan market for smart pills include mandatory healthcare insurance, technological advancements and an increase in the prevalence of stomach cancer and gastrointestinal disorders. According to the World Cancer Research Fund International, Japan ranks third among Asian countries in the prevalence of stomach cancer. Thus, a high prevalence of target diseases, coupled with growing government support, will create suitable growth opportunities in Japan.
