May 4 is the 23rd World Asthma Day. This year's theme is "unveiling the misunderstanding of asthma", calling on people to take action to solve the common misconceptions in asthma prevention and treatment.

Asthma is a chronic airway inflammation. According to the epidemiological survey, there are at least 300 million asthma patients in the world. The prevalence rate of asthma among people aged 20 and over in China is 4.2%, and the total number of patients is about 45.7 million. However, the number of asthma patients receiving atomization treatment in China only accounts for 5.6% of the total number of patients. In recent years, with the improvement of residents' health awareness, the expansion of per capita medical expenditure and the support of national policies, patients' demand for intelligent micro network atomizers with therapeutic effects has been expanding.

The market scale and demand are constantly expanding

With the development of urbanization and the change of environment, the incidence rate of asthma in the world is on the rise. In the treatment of respiratory diseases, atomization inhalation therapy has the advantages of small dosage, rapid onset and good clinical effect, and has been widely used at present.

01 market scale: the domestic market is expected to exceed 2 billion yuan in 2020

According to statistics, in 2019, the global market scale of inhalation therapeutic nebulizer reached US $6.5 billion, and it is expected to reach US $10.1 billion by 2026, with a compound annual growth rate of 6.5%. In 2019, the market scale of medical nebulizer in China was 1.728 billion yuan, with a year-on-year increase of 22.12%. In the future, the domestic market scale will reach 2 billion yuan.

02 market demand: compression atomizer dominates

With the development of technology, the nebulizer products used for asthma treatment have been upgraded from the first generation to the third generation. These three generation products show three different development stages of nebulizer. In medicine, the ultrasonic atomizer is called the first generation atomizer, the compression atomizer is the second generation atomizer, and the micro network atomizer is the third generation atomizer.
