Tetanus also known as lockjaw, is an acute disease caused by the bacterium clostridium tetani which are present in the environment and particularly found in the soil of moist and warm areas. It is characterized by convulsive spasms and generalized rigidity of the skeletal muscles. The muscles stiffness is found to be occurred in the jaw and neck first and then become generalized. During the early 1920’s a method for inactivating tetanus by the use of formaldehyde was introduced by Ramon, which led to the development of tetanus toxoid in 1924. Tetanus following injuries in children and adult may constitute a considerable public health problem. The mortality of tetanus can be 100% if it is not treated. The infection can be treated through vaccination and other medication treatment.
Tetanus Market: Drivers & Restraints
The Tetanus market is expected to grow exponentially during the forecast period, primarily due to the rise in research and development practices, increased awareness about the disease prevention and treatment, and increased healthcare expenditure. The high expenditure in R&D is the key factor contributing in the growth of global tetanus market. The large number of products such as GSK-217744, LVBF-0101, TAK-361S and others are undergoing the clinical trials currently. Though the market seems optimistic in coming years, side effects associated with the treatment, high costs of R&D, along with stringent regulatory procedures in some of the key nations can led to some negative impact on this industry. The procurement of tetanus vaccination by the UNICEF, WHO and other government initiatives for the prevention and treatment of tetanus are expected to create the growth opportunities for the global tetanus market.
