Global Moist Wound Dressings Market – Industry Trends and Forecast to 2030

Global Moist Wound Dressings Market, By Product (Foams, Hydrocolloids, Semi-Permeable Films, Hydrogels, Alginates, Hydrofibres, Collagens) Application (Pressure Ulcers, Diabetic Ulcers, Burn Wounds, Surgical Wounds, Traumatic Wounds, Others), End-user (Hospitals, Homecare, Others ) – Industry Trends and Forecast to 2030.

Moist Wound Dressings Market Analysis and Size

A study conducted by the Wound Healing Society (WHS), the United States, revealed that, about 8.2 million people had wounds with or without infection during 2018 in the United States. Medicare's overall cost for acute and chronic wounds was estimated to be between USD 21.1 and USD 96.8 billion. Over the forecast period of 2023 to 2030, increased wound instances are likely to boost the growth of the wound dressing market. A moist wound dressing creates a wet environment that aids wound healing. This moist wound environment keeps tissue hydrated, reduces discomfort, and speeds up the decomposition of dead tissue. Since the previous decade, advances in improved wound care dressings have shifted the health-care paradigm. In the treatment of wounds, moist wound dressings are the most commonly utilized dressings. The growing desire for moist wound dressings can be related to aspects such as maintaining optimal moisture levels for cell growth and proliferation and expansion during wound healing phases.

Report Scope and Market Segmentation

Market Definition

In the treatment of wounds, moist wound dressings are the most commonly utilised dressings. The growing desire for moist wound dressings can be related to aspects such as maintaining optimal moisture levels for cell growth and proliferation and expansion during wound healing phases. When compared to standard dressings, moist wound dressings provide benefits such as proper exudate control, less pain and scarring, and faster wound healing.

Global Moist Wound Dressings Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Launch of novel therapies

The introduction of innovative therapies such as electromagnetic therapy, electrical stimulation, nanotechnology, and the use of silver and other combination dressings is fueling market expansion. These developments result in improved wound care and, as a result, increased product acceptance. The capacity of these dressings to manage moisture at the wound site, which aids in tissue regeneration and reduces infection and pain, is a significant improvement in the market. Advanced products make wound protection, gas exchange, antibacterial protection, thermal insulation, exudate absorption, and other functions easier, resulting in increased market growth.

• Growing prevalence of diabetes

The market is expected to rise due to rising diabetes incidence, increased awareness of treatment compliance in wound management, and increased investments in long-term care centres and skilled nursing facilities.

• Ongoing research and development (R&D) in the healthcare

In the healthcare area, research and development (R&D) is leading to the development of new products. Consider the introduction of keratin-based wound care solutions, these products not only help with wound re-epithelialization, but they also help with wound healing since the keratin matrix in them absorbs into the wound, eliminating the need to replace the dressing. In addition, the industry is being boosted by the development of novel therapies such as electromagnetic therapy, electrical stimulation, nanotechnology, and the use of silver and other combination dressings.

• Increasing cases of acute and chronic wounds

One of the factors driving the growth of the moist wound dressing market is the rise in chronic wound situations in emerging countries. According to the American Burn Association, around 450,000 patients are hospitalized each year as a result of burns, and their risk of infection is increased. As a result, the market for moist wound dressings is growing at a faster rate.

Opportunity

• Rising demographics and economies

The market for moist wound dressings in Asia is predicted to rise due to rising demographics and economies in developing countries such as China, Japan, and India. Furthermore, new breakthroughs in wound care products and technologies, increased technology adoption, and increased patient awareness of infections are projected to create new opportunities for the worldwide moist wound dressings market.

Restraint/Challenge

• Lack of medical professionals

However, medical professionals' resistance to changing treatment regimens with advanced products, the lack of a system that alerts them to the possibility of an ulcer, and alternatives to moist wound dressings such as negative pressure wound therapy and antimicrobials are some of the factors limiting the market's growth.
