This study involved the extensive use of both primary and secondary sources. The research process involved the study of various factors affecting the industry to identify the segmentation types, key market dynamics, key players, competitive landscape, industry trends, and key player strategies.
Secondary Research
The secondary research process involves the widespread use of secondary sources, directories, databases (such as Factiva, Bloomberg Businessweek, and D&B Hoovers), white papers, company house documents, investor presentations, annual reports, and SEC filings of companies. Secondary research was used to identify and collect information useful for the market-oriented, technical, extensive, and commercial study of the cardiac marker testing market. It was also used to obtain important information about the key players and market classification & segmentation according to industry trends to the bottom-most level and recent developments related to market and technology perspectives. A database of the key industry leaders was also prepared using secondary research.
Primary Research
Comprehensive primary research was conducted following an initial understanding of the cardiac marker testing market from secondary research sources. Numerous primary interviews were carried out, encompassing perspectives from both demand (including research institutes, healthcare providers, hospital laboratories, and point-of-care testing facilities) and supply sides (involving developers, manufacturers, and distributors of cardiac marker testing products). The interviewees comprised industry experts from the in vitro diagnostics (IVD) sector, including CEOs, directors, sales heads, VPs and marketing managers from tier 1, 2, and 3 companies providing cardiac biomarker test kits and instruments globally.
Approximately 65% of the interviews were conducted with representatives from the supply side, while the remaining 35% were from the demand side. A rigorous primary research approach was employed to validate the report's contents and bridge any information gaps. Interviews were conducted through telephonic and email communications, where questionnaires were tailored and sent to primary participants based on their convenience.
A breakdown of the primary respondents is provided below:

*Others include sales managers, marketing managers, business development managers, product managers, distributors, and suppliers.
Note: Companies are classified into tiers based on their total revenue. As of 2022, Tier 1 = >USD 2 billion, Tier 2 = USD 50 million to USD 2 billion, and Tier 3 = <USD 50 million.

Market Definition
Cardiac marker testing encompasses a suite of medical diagnostic examinations designed to analyze specific biomolecules, termed cardiac markers, within the bloodstream. These markers, including enzymes, hormones, and proteins, are released when the heart sustains damage or stress, typically in the context of conditions like heart attacks or cardiovascular diseases.
These tests play a crucial role in diagnosing a range of cardiac ailments, gauging the seriousness of cardiac incidents, monitoring patients afflicted with heart conditions, and evaluating the efficacy of treatments. Cardiac marker testing empowers healthcare professionals with accurate and timely diagnostic information, facilitating precise medical interventions and enhancing overall patient outcomes.
