The growth of this market is mainly driven by increasing incidence of renal disorders, growing incidence of other chronic disorders impacting renal function, rising awareness and adoption of preventive healthcare approaches, implementation of favorable government initiatives to promote renal health, rapid growth in the geriatric population, and increasing number of drug development initiatives.

This report segments the creatinine measurement on the basis of type, type of sample, end user, product, and region. By type, the market is segmented into Jaffe’s kinetic method and enzymatic method. In 2018, the Jaffe’s kinetic method segment is estimated to account for the largest share of the creatinine measurement market, as it is the oldest and most conventional method for creatinine measurement in clinical samples. Additionally, the widespread availability and cost-effectiveness of kits and reagents used in Jaffe’s kinetic method is another major factor responsible for the large share of this segment.

Based on type of sample, the market is segmented into blood/serum and urine samples. The blood sample segment accounted for the largest share of the creatinine measurement market in 2017 due to the increased accuracy and low risk of contamination. This segment is also expected to witness the highest growth over the forecast period, as it is the most preferred sample type for accurate measurement of creatinine levels.
