Global Central Pontine Myelinolysis Market Size, Share, Forecast Report, 2020-2027

Central Pontine Myelinolysis (CPM), also known as osmotic demyelination syndrome or central pontine demyelination, is a neurological disorder caused by severe damage of the myelin sheath of neurons. CPM mostly affects the pons area of the brain and is characterized by acute paralysis, difficulty swallowing (dysphagia), difficulty speaking (dysarthria), and other neurological symptoms. These neurological symptoms are manifested into nausea and vomiting, disturbed consciousness, gait changes, confusion, headache, seizures etc. Serious progressive neurological symptoms are the progressive development of spastic tetraparesis, pseudobulbar palsy etc.

The causes of CPM are, rapid correction of low blood sodium levels (hyponatremia) affected by severe liver disease, liver transplant, alcoholism, severe burns, malnutrition, anorexia, severe electrolyte disorders, AIDS, hyperemesis gravidarum, anorexia nervosa, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, Wernicke encephalopathy etc. The market drivers for central pontine myelinolysis market are increase in the risk factors such as hyponatremia cases, increasing screening and penetration of healthcare, growing income and healthcare expenditure etc. The market restraints are poor cure rates of central pontine myelinolysis, treatment, high cost of treatment etc.

The global CPM market is expected to reach US$ 2.2 billion by 2023, and the market is projected to grow at a CAGR of ~ 5.5 % during the forecast period 2017-2023.
