Increasing awareness about POCT, technological advancements and increasing FDA approvals are the major drivers of the global POC testing market. However, some challenges, such as product recalls and lack of regulatory standards, are hindering market growth.

On the basis of type of product, glucose monitoring kits accounted for the largest market share in 2017 due to the rising prevalence of diabetes & technological advancements in self-monitoring of blood glucose. Based on geography, North America accounted for the largest share of the global POC testing market in 2017.
