The data reveals that stem cell transplantations in Finland have fluctuated over the past decade, with notable annual variations. Between 2013 and 2019, the number of procedures largely trended upwards, peaking in 2017 with a significant year-on-year increase of 16.91%, before experiencing a sharp decline in 2019 by -39.3%. However, there has been a recovery phase from 2020 onwards, culminating in 368 transplants in 2023, which marked a 3.37% increase from the previous year.
Looking at the five-year period from 2018 to 2023, the CAGR stood at 1.54%, signaling modest but steady growth. The forecast for 2024 to 2028 indicates a continued upward trend with an expected CAGR of 2.41%. By 2028, the projected number of procedures is 428, a 12.63% growth from 2023 levels.
Future trends to watch for include advances in stem cell technology, potential policy changes regarding healthcare funding, and the impact of newer treatments that might either complement or substitute current stem cell procedures. Additionally, demographic shifts such as an aging population could influence demand.
