Wound Dressing Market: Rise in Geriatric Population to Trigger the Growth in the Market

Researchers have revealed that moisture and aeration not only helps the wound to heal faster by aiding to the growth of new cells, but also decreases discomfort to a certain degree. The requirement for wound dressing is now not only limited to trauma patients or household accidental cases, but also includes diabetic geriatrics who commonly suffer from ulcerative complications.

Global Wound Dressing Market: Region-wise Outlook

In 2013, traditional wound dressing had the most significant market in Asia Pacific while Rest of the World (RoW) experienced the highest growth rate in demand for the segment. The price sensitive markets in these two regions will continue to lead the market for traditional wound dressing because of several factors such as strong traditional backgrounds that dictates the healing methods. Moreover, these two regions contribute to more than half of world’s population and a substantial chunk of it includes geriatrics. Advanced wound dressing technologies are costly and fairly unknown to these vast populations due to lack of education.

North America, the U.S. in particular, is the most prominent market for advanced wound dressing methods in terms of revenue in 2013. This was due to the presence of robust healthcare infrastructure and high literacy levels. However, the presence of numerous advanced wound management products manufacturing units in Asia along with growing social awareness and increased diabetic population are likely to steadily increase the market for advanced wound dressing in the region.
