Nebulizers are drug delivery devices that use oxygen, compressed air, or ultrasonic energy to convert drug suspensions or solutions into aerosols or mist. Drugs in the form of aerosols or mist are easier for the user to inhale and the lungs to absorb. This drug delivery method helps administer different drugs, such as bronchodilators, antibiotics, antifungals, corticosteroids, and anti-inflammatory medications, for treating various respiratory disorders such as COPD, asthma, cystic fibrosis, and bronchitis. Nebulizers are often used for drug delivery to clear breathing passages, reduce inflammation in the airways caused by pollutants or infection, reduce mucous membrane swelling, treat upper respiratory infections, and mobilize and thin out secretions for easy removal. These devices are useful to treat children and adults who cannot manage their treatment with inhalers.

Intrathecal pumps are a category of analgesic infusion pumps that deliver medication into the individual's body for pain management. The intrathecal drug delivery pump is a method of giving medication directly to the spinal cord to stop pain signals from being perceived by the brain. These pumps are small-sized implantable infusion devices. The intrathecal pumps delivery method can minimize chronic pain and trauma caused by several chronic diseases such as cancer and multiple sclerosis. It consists of small pump or reservoir that is surgically located under the skin of the abdomen and transports medication through a catheter to intrathecal space or subarachnoid space.

Neem extracts are derived from neem seed, leaves, and bark, and are used in a variety of products across the agriculture, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical sectors. Neem possesses a number of medicinal properties because of which it is an ideal ingredient in several organic products. Growing awareness about the side effects related to extensive use of chemical-based personal care products such as soaps, shampoos and cosmetics which includes artificial components, and adoption of bio fertilizers are some of the factors that foster the growth of the neem extract market. The neem extract market is bifurcated on the basis of application and geography. In 2015, Asia-Pacific was the highest revenue-generating region in the world neem extract market.

Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring systems are portable devices that help measure and monitor the blood pressure in the human body. These devices obtain blood pressure readings for a set of time during a 24-hour period. The device records blood pressure readings every 20 minutes. It consists of an arm cuff attached to a lightweight monitor by an elastic rubber tube. The device is encased in a pouch attached to a waist belt or shoulder strap.

Dermatological conditions are one of the most common types of disorders worldwide, and approximately one-third of the US population suffers from at least one active skin condition.For the past decades, the majority of the dermatology market has remained saturated with established products. However, the clinical and commercial success of biologics in the treatment of psoriasis, as well as advancements in the understanding of the disease pathways of many dermatological conditions, have led to a renewed interest from pharmaceutical companies in the dermatology market, and subsequently the emergence of an innovative pipeline.

Mechanical ventilation is a lifesaving intervention for patients with respiratory disorders or even respiratory failure. It is a form of breathing assistance in which a patient is connected to a ventilator through an endotracheal tube directly applied to the airway. It is also employed as a diagnostic tool to measure the static compliance of airway resistance and irregular functioning respiratory system. Currently, intensive-care and portable mechanical ventilators are the two most widely used ventilators available in the market.

Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) is the most common cancer and cause of cancer-related mortality globally. There were more than 1.8 million newly diagnosed lung cancer cases in 2012 globally, accounting for 13% of the total number of cancer cases. Over half of the incident cases of NSCLC are diagnosed in patients over the age of 65 - a high-risk age range for lung cancer. As the aged population is projected to increase, the prevalence of lung cancer is anticipated to increase, thereby acting as a driver for revenue growth. The poor prognosis, particularly for patients with advanced disease, has created a pressing need for improved therapeutic options. The NSCLC market is undergoing a gradual change from a focus on generic chemotherapy regimens to a complex treatment landscape based on different NSCLC subtypes, and the presence of various molecular aberrations.

Intravenous (IV) ibuprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to reduce or treat pain, fever, and inflammation occurred due to a disease, operative procedures or trauma, and acute illness. The intravenous (IV) route for ibuprofen administration has a faster onset of action as compared to the other routes. IV ibuprofen is preferred for the management of post-operative and acute pain. The demand for ibuprofen has increased due to the side effects of opioid analgesics such as respiratory depression, allergic reactions, sedation, and gastrointestinal events.

An ostomy procedure, both temporary and permanent depending on the type of condition, involves the surgical creation of an opening or stoma in the human body to excrete waste products such as feces, mucus, and urine. Ostomy products include ostomy bags or pouches and ostomy care accessories. Ostomy bags are placed outside the patient's body to collect waste. Ostomy care accessories enhance the performance and comfort of the bags to manage the needs of ostomates. These accessories help prevent leakage of the ostomy bag contents, provide skin care for the peristomal region, and deodorize the contents.
