Saudi Arab is amongst the world’s fastest growing healthcare markets, and the biggest factor spurring this growth is the rapidly expanding population of the country, according to “Saudi Arabian Healthcare Market Forecast to 2012”, a new research report by RNCOS.
The report finds that despite healthy investment in new bed installations, the rate of population growth has significantly outpaced the rate of bed growth from early 1990s to 2008, leading to a fall in the bed to population ratio from 2.55 beds per thousand population to the present 2.36 beds per thousand population.
Currently, the country is witnessing maximum growth in the population segment at or above 65 years of age. The report forecasts this population segment to expand by 15% between 2008 and 2012, outpacing the 10% increase in the total population. With increasing aging population, the prevalence of a number of chronic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular and dementia will grow exponentially in future. This will significantly push the demand for hospital services, pharmaceuticals and medical devices in future.
Apart from the shortage of beds, the fast expanding population will also create a shortage of healthcare professionals in the country. Most of the healthcare professionals in the country are foreign nationals with high turnover rates. As a result, the government has taken a number of steps to improve its medical education infrastructure. However, the number of medical graduates passing out in the foreseeable future is not likely to match the demand emerging from the ever-increasing population. This will open up big opportunities for the education services market in Saudi Arab.
“Saudi Arabian Healthcare Market Forecast to 2012” gives an extensive and objective analysis on the Saudi Arab healthcare market. It has segmented the healthcare industry under the heads hospital services, pharmaceuticals and medical devices. Analysis as well as statistics on these segments regarding the market size, demand, supply, segmentation and key players has been given in this report.
An analysis on the future directions, supplemented with both facts and figures has also been done by the report. Thus, the research study serves as a useful guide for healthcare companies, government officials, consultants and investors who are planning to foray into the Saudi Arab healthcare market.http://www.rncos.com/ |

RNCOS Releases a New Report- Booming Clinical Trials Market in India
|
|
|
RNCOS has recently added a new Market Research Report titled, “Booming Clinical Trials Market in India” to its report gallery. According to our research report, “Booming Clinical Trials Market in India”, India promises to be one of the hottest destinations for conducting global clinical research, owing to a huge patient pool representing both chronic and infectious diseases, easy recruitment of patients, and high cost savings.
India presently occupies a very small pie of the global opportunity. The total number of clinical trials in India stood at 221 in 2007, which equates to less than 2% of the global clinical trials. With all major pharmaceutical/biotech companies and CROs establishing their presence in India, the number of clinical trials in the country is expected to grow several folds in the next five years. The country is projected to conduct nearly 5% of the global clinical trials by 2012. However, to achieve its goal of becoming a global hub of clinical trials, the country has to overcome challenges like unethical trials, delay in trial approval, inappropriate protection of clinical data, and lack of Good Clinical Practice (GCP) certified sites and investigators.
Surging clinical trials market in India will create enormous opportunities for a number of associated industries, including IVD market, education sector and clinical data management.
“Booming Clinical Trials Market in India” gives an extensive and objective analysis on the Indian clinical trials market. It investigates the advantages/disadvantages India has in becoming a global clinical trials hub. The report exhaustively evaluates and compares the key factors that drug companies and CROs look before outsourcing clinical trials to a country. These include parameters such as patient pool, regulatory environment, cost, infrastructure, human resources and past performance in conducting clinical trials. Thus, this analytical study serves as a useful guide for drug manufacturers, CROs, consultants and investors who are planning to enter the Indian clinical trials market.

RNCOS Releases a New Report- Saudi Arabian Healthcare Market Forecast to 2012
|
|
|
RNCOS has recently added a new Market Research Report titled, “Saudi Arabian Healthcare Market Forecast to 2012” to its report gallery. According to the report the Saudi Arabian healthcare market is witnessing rapid growth and will continue to expand exponentially in future. The country’s rapidly increasing population, due to which demand is outpacing supply, can be regarded as the main push for the market. And as the incidences of a number of lifestyle diseases, such as obesity, diabetes and hypertension, in the country amongst the highest in the world, these will significantly boost the healthcare spending in future.
Government plays a central role in providing healthcare services in the kingdom, accounting for around 75% of the total healthcare spending in the country. The government accounted for 67% of the total hospitals and 77% of the total hospital beds in the country in 2006. The government expenditure on healthcare, however, is increasing faster than its total income; as a result, government may resort to cost cutting measures in future.
The report says that due to increasing pressure on the public healthcare system, the government is rapidly promoting the involvement of private healthcare in the country. So big investment will be seen from the private sector in the forecasted period, and according to our estimates, the private sector will account for 62% for all new beds installed during 2006-2012.
However, slump in crude oil prices due to economic recession can hit the nation’s economy. But the fast diversification of the country’s economy into other sectors will provide it a buffer against the severe impact of economic turmoil. Despite some challenges such as shortage of skilled workers, dependency on oil and bureaucratic issues, the market’s future will remain bright with all three sectors - hospital services, pharmaceuticals and medicals devices - expected to show sustained growth.
“Saudi Arabian Healthcare Market Forecast to 2012” gives an extensive and objective analysis on the Saudi Arabian healthcare market. It has segmented the healthcare industry into hospital services, pharmaceuticals and medical devices. It provides analytical and statistical information on these segments, including their market size, demand, supply, segmentation and key players. It also features an analysis on the future directions, supplemented with facts and figures. Thus, the report serves as a useful guide for healthcare companies, government officials, consultants and investors who are planning to enter the Saudi Arab healthcare market.
Our report provides forecast on
- Macroeconomic indicators
- Demographic and healthcare indicators
- Healthcare spending
- Demand for hospital beds
- Pharmaceutical market
- Medical devices market
Key questions answered in the report
- Which factors are driving the Saudi Arabia healthcare market?

Women's Libido How to Increase
|
|
|
There are many simple, but yet very effective ways in how to increase women's libido. Many come free or have a minimal cost. Here are just a few to start with. A female libido enhancer made for a woman, and taken orally, may be all that is needed for an increased libido in a woman.
These can also come in the forms of creams, lotions and gels to be applied topically, just to name a few. These can easily be purchased over the counter or on the internet without a prescription. There are many natural libido enhancers around, but what might be right for one person, may not work for another. Some enhancers may give a boost in this area, while others may totally flop.
Another thing a women can do to throw an increase into her libido, is to make healthier choices when eating, and getting a good exercise routine down. Let's face it. Not only does exercise and good eating habits increase our physical well being, but gives us mental clarity, something we can all give to our libidos. We just feel better in general when we do these things. Keeping our stress levels in check will also give our libidos one up. We can function much better when we don't have things eating at us, which is a big no no when in the bedroom.
If you and your partner are comfortable with using sexual enhancement toys, these can be very beneficial. There is a wide variety of these enhancements on the market, and can be purchased inexpensively and discreetly. They can even been used in conjunction with the creams, lotions and gels to increase their effects. Many of the oral and topical enhancements mentioned here are made with herbs or have herbs in them, so do your research on what herbs to you want to consider taking for enhancement. These ideas fall on the side of physical realm. Know that there are things that can be done that call on the psychological side too.
For many women communication to their partner is all they need to increase their libidos. Finding out what works with you and your body, and letting your partner know can increase a woman's drive considerably. Simple things that a woman's partner can give her, can make a big difference in driving her libido up. Things such as, a stable relationship, learning to give intimacy without sexual overtones and just being there emotionally can work for the benefit of increased libido.
Developing a relationship with a partner that is nurturing on many levels and, is by far the best known way to increase women's libido. Someone making you feel wanted makes all the difference in the world and it can't be bad for the libido either. Everyone knows that the more spontaneous intimacy is, the better. But, knowing that intimacy will take place at certain times around the woman's monthly cycle can give a natural nudge to libido enhancement. A window of a few days before a woman's cycle begins, there is an increase in libido. Women can't always be guaranteed themselves that intimacy will take place during these times, but when it does, you can know that there will be an added bonus.

What is Osteoarthritis?

What is Osteoarthritis?
Osteoarthritis, also known as a degenerative joint disease, can manifest as an inflammation of one, or several joints. It can affect any and all joints, including the hips, big toes, the neck, and the lower back and is the most common type of arthritis. Associated with a breakdown of cartilage in joints, it primarily shows up in the weight bearing joints of the hips, knees and spine. It doesn't affect other joints unless an injury of overuse of the joint has occurred.
Most people over age 60 have Osteoarthritis to some degree,
What are the symptoms of Osteoarthritis?
Osteoarthritis symptoms are swollen and painful joints, soreness after inactivity or prolonged use, and fluid accumulation. Osteoarthritis can also develop in individuals who adopted repetitive movements in a certain joint. For example, footballers’ often develop Osteoarthritis in their knees while tennis players’ develop Osteoarthritis in the elbow.
Osteoarthritis is a progressive disease that strikes the elderly because of its degenerative nature. In this way, it is unlike rheumatoid arthritis, which progresses rapidly in young adults.
What causes Osteoarthritis?
A wearing down of the protective cartilage that rests between two adjoining bones causes Osteoarthritis, bringing intense soreness and discomfort. When this occurs, the joint becomes stiff and loses its elasticity. This makes it more susceptible to damage. As the cartilage deteriorates, tendons and ligaments stretch, causing pain. As the condition continues to deteriorate, the bones themselves may rub together exacerbating that pain. Finger and knees may become knobby as a result.
Crystal deposits in the cartilage can also contribute to Osteoarthritis too, as it can create cartilage degradation.
Heredity, obesity, and injury can all be risks factors for Osteoarthritis, but the disease can strike any of us at any time with very little warning. All races appear to be equally affected, and for a small group of sufferers, Osteoarthritis becomes debilitating, permanently altering the victim's quality of life.
Will Painwave X4000 Help with Osteoarthritis?
Yes! The Painwave can definitely aid suffers of Osteoarthritis, and is especially beneficial because it is non-invasive and drug free. Most suffers of this type of arthritis know that constantly taking pain killers can affect their daily way of life due to debilitating side effects. The Painwave X4000 is different because it does not ‘block’ pain signals to the brain, instead it works in concert with the body’s own bioelectromagnetic ecosystem. Painwave X4000 has absolutely no side effects and couldn't be easier to use! Simply take the unit in hand unit and move gently over the surface of the skin in a small circular motion. After a short period of time Painwave X4000 will be able to improve circulation as well as stimulate cell activity and lymphatic movements, all of which are beneficial in the relief of Osteoarthritis pain and other discomforts. In many cases, this stimulation will reduce or eliminate pain permanently.
