Therapeutic apheresis refers to an extracorporeal treatment that involves the selective removal of cells or other targeted abnormal substances from blood circulation. The technique has lately been explored for the treatment of various medical conditions. Extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) is a process that is used in the treatment of lymphoma. In this process, white blood cells (WBCs) are collected from the bloodstream, treated with light-activated drugs, and exposed to UV lights, followed by infusing it back to the patient body. Therapeutic plasma exchange is a potential method employed to treat medical conditions such as multiple sclerosis, myeloma, and leukemia. The technique withdraws plasma from the patient’s blood and replaces it with fresh donor plasma or bottled human albumin solution. Further, the double filtration plasmapheresis technique is used for rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) apheresis or leukocytapheresis for the nephritic syndrome. These techniques are two major apheresis therapies that are used to treat kidney diseases. Thus, the widening scope of apheresis technology in therapeutics is emerging as a prevalent trend in the leukapheresis market.South America have been witnessing a growing number of COVID-19 cases since its outbreak. The cases are increasing in Brazil, Argentina, and Colombia. The COVID-19 is expected to result in the region's worst recession, causing a 9.1% contraction in regional GDP in 2020. This is expected to increase the number of poor up by 45 million and the extremely poor number by 28 million. The COVID‐ 19 pandemic is a critical test for the already overburdened and underfunded public healthcare systems of South America. It suffers from severe inequalities. State-run hospitals and clinics are already overstressed by the treatment of vector‐borne diseases and community‐acquired infections and high rates of non‐communicable diseases (NCDs). Moreover, in South America, the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and central government healthcare expenditure are significantly lower than in developed countries. In 2018, as per the United Nations, Economic Commission for Latin America (CEPAL), 16 South American countries invested less than 4% of their GDP to healthcare. The consequences of a lack of investment in public healthcare systems are reflecting during the pandemic. The COVID‐19 pandemic is exacerbating these inequalities by threatening the infrastructure and capacity of state‐owned healthcare systems. Thus, the factors mentioned above are negatively impacting the growth of the market in the region.
With the new features and technologies, vendors can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets. This factor is likely to drive the South America leukapheresis market. The South America leukapheresis market is expected to grow at a good CAGR during the forecast period.
