Seizures Market Overview
Seizures are characterized by an uncontrollable burst of electrical activity in the brain, causing changes in movement, behavior, and levels of consciousness of the affected individual. Focal onset and generalized onset seizures are the two major classes of seizures. The rise in the cases of seizure disorders including epilepsy is a significant growth driver for the market. The development of novel anti-seizure medications and the growing adoption of non-pharmacological treatments are poised to fuel the market growth. Further, increased awareness programs and a rise in government initiatives are anticipated to augment the market demand. Additionally, the growth in the number of clinical trials and increased funding for epilepsy research projects are projected to influence the market dynamics in the coming years.
Key Findings
- Recent data suggests that around 70% of individuals affected by epilepsy can become seizure-free if they take appropriate antiseizure medications. The growing adoption of such drugs to prevent seizure recurrence is driving the market demand.
- In the National Epilepsy Week 2024 , the Epilepsy Research Institute secured the biggest-ever annual investment of EUR 2 million as part of the 2024 Research Awards, which will support 14 new projects in the United Kingdom and internationally, with an aim to advance epilepsy research. Such funding and investments are likely to support market growth in the forecast period.
- The rising interest in alternative and complementary treatments such as deep brain stimulation and the growing focus on the treatment of pediatric epilepsy are significant market trends.
Seizures Market Demand Drivers
According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), epilepsy is one of the most common neurological diseases and is reported to affect about 50 million individuals globally. It is estimated that 5 million individuals are diagnosed with epilepsy annually. Further, studies suggest that the diagnosis of epilepsy in high-income countries is 49 per 100,000 people every year whereas this figure is around 139 per 100,000 in low- and middle-income countries. The increasing prevalence of epilepsy and other seizure disorders is one of the key factors propelling the market demand.
