Competing in the European Coagulation Testing Market:
France, Germany, Italy, Spain, UK

Complete report $19,700.  DataPack (test volumes, sales forecasts, supplier shares) $12,800.

This new 500-page comprehensive five-country report from Venture Planning Group is designed to help current suppliers and potential market entrants identify and evaluate the major business opportunities emerging in the European coagulation market.  The report explores business and technological trends in major European countries (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, UK); provides estimates of the test volume, as well as sales and market shares of leading competitors; compares features of major analyzers; profiles leading market players; and identifies specific product and business opportunities facing instrument and consumable suppliers during the next five years.

The growing cost-containment pressures in major industrialized nations, coupled with continued technological advances in chromagenic substrates, monoclonal antibodies, immunoassays, molecular diagnostics, computers and laboratory automation will radically change the coagulation testing practice during the next five years.  New specific and sensitive markers of hemostasis will be increasingly used on automated instrumentation.  Coagulation testing will also become more standardized, offering opportunities for quality control products and services.  Moreover, continuing contraction of the hospital system and technological advances will facilitate decentralization of the coagulation testing closer to the patient, thus creating additional opportunities and challenges for suppliers.
