WOUND CARE MARKET SEGMENTATION

This Wound Care industry analysis report includes detailed segmentation by products, wound type, end-users, and geography.

The sutures and stapling devices segment is likely to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The rising number of surgical procedures worldwide is a key driver for the growth of the segment. The use of wound dressings has witnessed significant growth in recent years, and this trend is likely to continue during the forecast period. The growing incidence of chronic lifestyle diseases such as diabetes and other acute and chronic injuries due to surgical procedures is one of the major factors driving advanced wound dressings market growth.

The surgical wound care market share is likely to increase during the forecast period. The growing burden of ulcers, which include diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg, and pressure ulcers, is contributing to the market growth. In 2018, the surgical sealants category accounted for a share of 39% of the overall hemostats & surgical sealants segment. Surgical procedures are generally accompanied by several risks, including infection, excessive bleeding, or tissue damage. Surgical sealants are less traumatic than traditional methods since they do not have the risk of causing further damage to tissues. The growing elderly patient population suffering from diabetic foot ulcers needs various surgical procedures to treat orthopedic, GI, and other diseases. This patient population needs to take extra precautions as chances of infections and injuries, during and after surgery are significantly high. This further drives the growth of surgical sealants, given their added advantages to treating surgical wounds.

The acute wound segment accounts for more than half of the global wound care market share. Surgical and traumatic injuries, superficial burns, and abrasions are generally considered as acute injuries. The segment is growing mainly due to the growing number of surgical procedures and the increasing incidence of several diseases. Surgical site infections (SSI) is another key factor for the growth of the acute injury segment of the global market.

In 2018, the hospital & specialty clinic segment accounted for more than half of the global wound care market share. The segment is growing mainly due to the increasing number of surgical procedures and surgical wounds. Vendors such as Acelity and ConvaTec are also increasingly focusing on strengthening their relationships with hospitals. They establish a relationship to sell a high volume of their products to hospitals. The long-term care facilities segment is growing at a steady pace due to the rising incidence of chronic injuries, mainly due to the increasing burden of the patient population with chronic diseases such as diabetes. The growing elderly population is also contributing to the growth of the segment since the people in this age group are vulnerable in developing various chronic diseases such as diabetes. In 2018, the home healthcare segment accounted for a share of 10% of the market.
