Global Agitation in Delirium Management Market – Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic

The World Health Organization (WHO) designated the illness caused by the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which first appeared in Wuhan (province of Hubei, China) in the last months of 2019, as "coronavirus disease 2019" or COVID-19. This virus spreads quickly and has a serious negative impact on the economies, social behaviors, and healthcare of every country in the world.

According to the research carried out by researchers from the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC), published in the Journal of Clinical Immunology and Immunotherapy in November 2020, symptoms like fever and increased invasive mechanical ventilation during COVID-19 increase the risk of delirium. According to the same source, the researchers also found that coronavirus disease not only damages the lungs and other organs such as the kidneys and heart but also affects the central nervous system. It produces neurocognitive alterations such as headaches, delirium, and psychotic episodes in COVID-19 patients.

Thus, the researchers provided three hypotheses in order to explain how the coronavirus affects the central nervous system, which can lead to delirium in COVID-19 patients which is due to: hypoxia or neuronal oxygen deficiency; inflammation of the brain tissue due to cytokine storm; and the ability of the virus to cross the blood-brain barrier which directly affects the brain.

• Among route of administration, the oral segment is expected to hold a dominant position due to increasing research and development for oral antiphyscotic drugs in the global agitation in delirium management market during the forecast period. For instance, according to data published by the American College of Physicians (ACP) Journal on September 5, 2023, a cohort study was conducted for the comparative safety analysis of oral antipsychotics for in-hospital adverse clinical events in older adults after major surgery. The study results suggest that atypical antipsychotics and haloperidol have similar rates of in-hospital adverse clinical events in older patients with postoperative delirium who receive an oral low-to-moderate dose antipsychotic drug.
• Among regions, North America is expected to be the dominant region in the global agitation in delirium management market, owing to increasing product approval by regulatory authorities. For instance, on March 6, 2023, according to the data published by the Parkinson's Foundation, a non-profit organization, Parkinson’s disease was the second most common age-related neurodegenerative condition diagnosed in North America. In late 2022, a Parkinson’s Foundation-backed study revealed that nearly 90,000 people are diagnosed with PD every year in the U.S., a 50% increase from the previously estimated rate of 60,000 diagnoses annually.
• Major players operating in the global agitation in delirium management market are Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd., Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd., Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Limited, Mylan N.V., Fresenius Kabi AG, Novartis AG, Akorn Incorporated, Zydus Cadila, Pfizer, Inc., BioXcel Therapeutics, Inc., and Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited
