Companion diagnostic tests are used to identify suitable patients for administering specific drugs and monitoring the prognosis of drug effects on the disease. This concept of combining a drug with a diagnostic test is known as predictive medicine or personalized medicine. A companion diagnostic test has the ability to predict the risks of the disease and monitor its therapeutic response. The tests enable physicians to make decisions on the type of drugs and dosage administration and thereby reduce the mortality rates associated with diseases such as cancer and neurodegenerative disorders. The demand for companion diagnostic tests is expected to grow at a significant rate during the forecast period. In 2013, the Americas dominated the Global Companion Diagnostics market and it was followed by the EMEA region. Together, these two regions accounted for 90 percent of the market revenue. However, the APAC region is expected to grow at the fastest rate during the forecast period because of the increase in the incidence of infectious diseases, the demand for targeted therapeutics, and the increased adoption of diagnostic products. The Global Companion Diagnostics market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 18.59 percent during the forecast period.

Peripheral I.V. catheters are peripheral venous devices used to infuse medication or fluids directly into a vein, or draw blood samples for testing. These catheters are made of a non-irritant material, such as silicone, which negates any side effects caused when they are left in the patient's arm for several weeks or months. Peripheral I.V. catheters are introduced into the peripheral vein using a needle and fixed to the patient's skin with adhesive tape. The needle is then removed, leaving a small tube of the cannula at the insertion site. Advanced peripheral I.V. catheters are equipped with additional safety features to prevent needlestick injuries, which allow for their use in critical care units in hospitals. The Global Peripheral I.V. Catheter market is growing at a steady pace and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.08 percent during the period 2013-2018. In terms of geographies, the Americas dominated the market in 2013, with the US being its leading revenue contributor because of its high per capita healthcare expenditure.
