WHO advises that all blood collection, testing, processing, storage, and distribution activities be coordinated nationally using efficient administration and cohesive blood supply networks. National blood policy and legislative framework should govern the nation's blood system to encourage the uniform application of standards and consistency in the quality and safety of blood and blood products. 125 of the 171 countries reported in 2018 had a national blood policy of 73%. Overall, 113 out of the 171 reporting countries, or 66%, have laws that specifically address the security and caliber of blood transfusions. Worldwide, blood donations total about 118.54 million. 16% of the world's population lives in high-income countries, where 40% of these are collected. Growing initiatives by the government are another factor driving the growth of the Apheresis market revenue.

Apheresis Procedure Insights

Based on procedure, the  Apheresis market segmentation includes plateletpheresis, leukapheresis, erythrocyte apheresis, and plasmapheresis. The plateletpheresis segment dominated the market in 2022 and is projected to be the faster-growing segment during the forecast period, 2022-2030. Patients with compromised immune systems receive plasma-based medications to increase their resistance to infection and disease. The market is anticipated to expand as the prevalence of blood-related diseases increases and the demand for therapies derived from plasma rises. White blood cells (WBC) are removed from the blood drawn from the body using plasmapheresis. The demand for plasmapheresis is anticipated to increase due to the necessity of this type of surgery to treat graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) and T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). Hence, such factors are positively impacting the market growth.

Apheresis Method Insights

The Apheresis market data has been bifurcated by method into Centrifugation and Filtration. The Centrifugation segment dominated the market in 2022 and is projected to be the faster-growing segment during the forecast period, 2022-2030. Compared to membrane filtration, centrifugation produces results more quickly, easily, and precisely, which explains why it is more frequently used. Additionally, the segment is anticipated to grow in response to the rising demand for automated apheresis systems. To increase the effectiveness of their products, businesses are developing sophisticated, automated technology. The producers create continuous flow centrifugation, an automated interface system, and a customized anticoagulant infusion system for automatic apheresis equipment.

Apheresis Application Insights

Based on Application, the Apheresis industry has been segmented into oncological, renal, cardiovascular, hematological, neurological, and immunological diseases.
