How is Rising Chronic Disease Prevalence Contributing in Wound Dressing Market Growth?

With the changing environment and lifestyle, the prevalence of various life-threatening diseases is increasing, thereby driving the volume of surgeries for improving the quality of life. Further, the growing geriatric population is another major factor that results in the high number of surgeries and occurrence of various ailments, as the aged are susceptible to many diseases due to their weakened immune system. The United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs presented a report on World Population Aging that stated that the population aged 60 years and above would reach 2.1 billion by 2050 from 962 million in 2017. The elderly require surgeries for various conditions, such as neurological disorders, cancer, and cardiovascular diseases, which puts them at risk of developing various infections, as wound healing is slowed down in them due to impaired blood circulation and reduced collagen deposition.

A study published by P&S Intelligence reported that the wound dressing market would grow at a 7.2% CAGR in the coming years, generating a revenue of $17.3 billion, compared to $11.4 billion in 2017. Wound dressings are means of enhancing the wound healing process by absorbing the exudates, allowing gaseous exchange, providing thermal insulation, and preventing the spread of infections. Wound dressings are used for treating chronic wounds, surgical wounds, and ulcers. Wound dressings are primarily of two types — traditional and advanced. Advanced wound dressings were used more than the traditional ones due to the rising popularity of many enhanced products, such as hydrocolloids, foams, alginates, films, hydrofiber, collagen, wound contact layers, hydrogels, and superabsorbent wound dressings.

Approximately 117 million people in the U.S. suffered from one or more chronic health conditions in 2012, reported the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. This increase was primarily seen in the prevalence of lifestyle diseases, such as stroke, cancer, respiratory diseases, heart diseases, and even diabetes. These conditions, as they worsen over time, lead to severe complications, with surgeries being the only plausible treatment option. Diabetes leads to the occurrence of many health issues, such as diabetic foot ulcers. These ulcers, if not managed timely, may even lead to amputations and may require management by surgeries to prevent the maceration of the surrounding tissue by using appropriate products, including foams, hydrocolloids, and alginates. Postoperative care comprises wound dressing as an essential component; therefore, the growing prevalence of such diseases and volume of surgeries to treat them would aid in the advance of the wound dressing market.

Though the demand for wound dressing is expected to witness a massive across the world, the most rapid surge would be seen in Asia-Pacific (APAC). The International Diabetes Federation (IDF) estimated that about 142.7 million cases of diabetes would be reported in China by 2035. Additionally, a  Global Status Report on Road Safety mentioned that 207,551 and 261,367 fatalities were reported in India and China, respectively in 2015. In the light of these numbers, it is easy to infer why the demand for wound dressing products is expected to be the highest in the Asia-Pacific region. Other than the factors listed above, this high demand can also be attributed to the rising geriatric population, incidents of burn cases, and number of accidents in the region.
