Market Drivers

The main driver of this impressive growth, which will occur across Australia will be rising and aging populations, like Alzheimer's disease, is significantly more prevalent among the elderly. The population above 60 years of age forms the target demographic segment for this vertical, as this population subset is more prone to neurological conditions. The advancement of diagnostics equipment increases the lifespan of this demographic and improves the quality of life for those suffering from neurological conditions. Hence, the presence of a large geriatric population pool is considered a vital driver for this industry.

Additional market drivers include better diagnostic techniques, improving health awareness, special healthcare programs, health insurance coverage, and increasing treatment affordability.

Major Alzheimer Diseases

Based on disease indication, the Alzheimer Diseases market can be segmented into late-onset: which happens to people age 65 and older, early-onset: affect people in their 30s or 40s, and familial: before the age of 65 (usually between 30 and 60 years of age) and is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion. In the final stage of the disease, dementia symptoms are severe. Individuals lose the ability to respond to their environment, to carry on a conversation, and eventually, to control movement.
