Ultrasound Probe Disinfection Market size was valued at around USD 554.6 million in 2023 and is estimated to grow at 12.4% CAGR from 2024 to 2032. Ultrasound probe disinfection refers to the process of cleaning and decontaminating ultrasound probes or transducers to prevent the spread of infections. Ultrasound probes are medical devices used to obtain images of internal body structures for diagnostic purposes. During use, these probes meet patients' skin or bodily fluids, potentially carrying infectious agents.
The rising incidence of hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) is a significant driving factors for the market. For instance, according to the National Institutes of Health, in 2023, the overall incidence rate of these infections was 6.6 cases per 1,000 person-days observation with the prevalence of 8.88%. Similarly, as per ScienceDirect, in 2021, incidence of HAI for the hospitals was 250 HAI cases per 100,000 acute occupied bed-days (AOBD).
