日本藥房自動化市場評估:依產品、依藥房規模、依應用、依最終用戶、依地區、機會和預測(2017 財年-2031 財年)Japan Pharmacy Automation Market Assessment, By Product, By Pharmacy Size, By Application, By End-user, By Region, Opportunities and Forecast, FY2017-FY2031F |
2023財年日本藥局自動化市場規模為2.471億美元,預計2031財年將達3.7351億美元,預計2024財年至2031財年的複合年增長率為5.3%。由於技術進步和對醫療保健領域 IT 系統整合的重視,該市場呈現出顯著的成長。日本技術非常發達,注重技術採用。藥房自動化很早就被引入日本市場。在日本,機器人技術正在接管藥房,大多數處方都是由高度準確的機器人系統配藥,消除了人為錯誤。藥局自動化的市場滲透僅限於城市地區,日本甚至有較小的藥局也採用了工作流程自動化工具。
另外,日本人口老化,醫療需求不斷增加。藥局自動化正在幫助日本更快、更有效地滿足老年人的醫療需求。政府措施正在幫助加快市場發展。此外,提高營運效率和降低成本的需求是促進市場成長的關鍵因素。此外,領先的市場參與者正在合作開發更有效的藥房自動化解決方案。
2022 年 10 月,為衛生系統和藥房提供藥物管理和依從性工具的領先提供者 Omnicell, Inc. 將提供統包專用服務,以啟動、管理和優化專業藥房計劃。
日本正在全國各地的醫院、醫療設施和藥房實現自動化。由於人口減少和勞動力短缺,日本注重技術進步。透過全民健康保險以及資訊科技系統和自動化的整合,在統一醫療系統方面做出了顯著的努力。2023年7月,Noritsu Pharmacy Automation宣佈推出兩款新產品:BlistAssist和CountAssist。CountAssist 是一種半自動藥丸計數和小瓶填充解決方案。
根據BBC新聞報道,到2023年,日本將成為世界上出生率最低的國家之一,並且正在努力弄清楚如何為老年人提供醫療設施。日本近三分之一的人口年齡在 65 歲或以上,估計有 3,623 萬人。日本政府宣佈,日本15%的老年人患有癡呆症。需要有效的醫療保健基礎設施來滿足日益增長的老年人的需求。越來越多的老年人有特殊的醫療需求,需要定期服藥。將自動化納入藥品配藥和包裝可以有效滿足這些需求。
自動包裝和標籤系統將在預測期內快速成長。這包括需要提高藥品分發的效率和準確性,以及需要透過為每種藥品提供獨特的標籤和外觀以避免混淆並幫助用戶來降低成本。
COVID-19 對日本藥房自動化市場產生了積極影響,因為它促使自動化需求大幅增加。日本受疫情影響嚴重,造成多人死亡並造成勞動力短缺問題。在大流行期間,自動配藥櫃(ADC)的需求量很大,因為它們能夠在不與人接觸的情況下配藥並確保社交距離。其他類型的藥房自動化系統已成為管理任務的焦點,例如庫存管理、訂單處理、計費和儲存。大流行期間生產力和效率的提高有助於認識到藥房自動化的重要性。
本報告研究和分析了日本藥房自動化市場,提供市場規模和預測、市場動態以及主要參與者的現狀和前景。
Japan pharmacy automation market size was valued at USD 247.1 million in FY2023, which is expected to reach USD 373.51 million in FY2031, with a CAGR of 5.3% for the forecast period between FY2024 and FY2031. The Japan pharmacy automation market is observing notable growth owing to heavy emphasis on technological advancements and integration of IT systems in healthcare. Japan is highly developed in terms of technology and focused on technology adoption. Pharmacy automation was introduced in the Japanese market, a long time back. In Japan, robotics dominate the pharmacies, and most prescriptions are refilled by robotic systems with high precision, eliminating human errors. The market penetration of pharmacy automation is limited to urban spaces, even a modest pharmacy set-up in Japan will have automation tools for workflows.
Apart from this, Japan is an aging country with growing healthcare needs. Pharmacy automation is helping Japan to meet the healthcare needs of the aging population at a faster and more effective pace. Government initiatives are helping to drive the market at a faster pace. Additionally, the demand for enhancing operational efficiency and cost reduction are key attributes contributing to market growth. Moreover, major market players are working in collaboration to develop more effective pharmacy automation solutions.
In October 2022, Omnicell, Inc., a leading provider of medication management and adherence tools for health systems and pharmacies, announced the launch of Specialty Pharmacy Services, a turnkey offering with dedicated services to set up, operate, and optimize a specialty pharmacy program.
Japan has incorporated automation in pharmacies across the country, in hospitals, healthcare facilities, and pharmacies. Japan places heavy emphasis on technological advancements due to declining population and staff shortage. The efforts for centralizing the healthcare system are notable, owing to universal health insurance and integration of IT systems and automation. In July 2023, Noritsu Pharmacy Automation announced the launch of two new products named BlistAssist and CountAssist. Unit-dose and multi-dose Blister Card technology offers a unique light-guided and bottle-scanning workflow while CountAssist is a semi-automated pill counting and vial filling solution.
According to BBC News, in 2023, Japan had one of the lowest birth rates in the world and has been struggling with solutions on how to provide healthcare facilities to its aging population. Almost one-third of Japan's population was estimated 36.23 million, with an age is over 65 years. Japanese government stated that 15% of the geriatric Japanese population has dementia. To accommodate the growing needs of geriatric population, there needs to be an effective healthcare infrastructure. The growing geriatric population has specific healthcare needs with regular medicine requirements. Addressing these requirements can be managed effectively by incorporating automation in pharmacy dispensing and packaging.
Based on product type, Japan pharmacy automation market is segmented into automated medication dispensing systems, automated packaging and labelling systems, automated table-top counters, automated storage and retrieval systems, and automated medication compounding systems. Systems for automated packaging and labeling will grow at a rapid rate in the forecasted period. It can be linked to factors such as the need to increase efficiency and accuracy while distributing medication and reduce costs by assisting users in avoiding confusion by giving all medications individual labels and looks.
COVID-19 had a positive impact on Japan pharmacy automation market as it led to significant increase in demand for automation. Japan was severely affected by the pandemic leading to the loss of several lives posing a problem of shortage of workforce. During the pandemic, demand for automated dispensing cabinets (ADCs) was high as they could dispense medicines without any human contact, ensuring social distancing. Other types of pharmacy automation systems gained attention to manage tasks like inventory management, order processing, billing, and storage. Increased productivity and increased efficiency during the pandemic helped in recognizing the significance of pharmacy automation.
Japan pharmacy automation market is quite competitive with leading market players like Becton Dickison & Company, TOSHO Inc., Baxter International, etc. These market players have a strong brand value, a vast distribution network, with a focus on innovation.
