LATEST TRENDS

Shifting Focus of Leading Manufacturers to Expand Geographical Footprint to Propel Industry Growth

The Asia Pacific advanced wound care market is witnessing a substantial growth owing to the rising focus by the players to launch wound care products in order to meet the increasing demand. Moreover, the players are continuously engaging in activities to strengthen their presence in the region by establishing manufacturing facilities and collaborating with government and non-government organizations to increase their production capacity and raise awareness among the population for efficient wound care management. Moreover, the researchers and key players are also shifting their focus to develop next-generation wound care products to cater to the unmet needs of available wound care products.

• For instance, in September 2021, MDM Wound Ventures, a U.S. based company entered into a distribution agreement with UCT Medical Co. Ltd. in South Korea to launch EZ Debride, a wound care device.

DRIVING FACTORS

Increasing Prevalence of Chronic and Acute Wounds in the Region to Raise the Demand

The increasing burden of the geriatric population, coupled with the rising prevalence of various chronic disorders, is one of the predominant factors contributing to the rising demand for these products. Chronic disorders such as diabetes, prolonged ICU admission, and injuries such as spinal cord injury increase the risk of developing chronic wounds among patients. Advanced wound care products are effective in the treatment of these conditions. Thus, the rising prevalence of chronic wounds along with chronic diseases augments the Asia Pacific advanced wound care market growth.

• For instance, according to data published by the Australian Government in 2021, approximately 16% of the total population were 65 years old and above.

High Cost of Wound Treatment to Limit the Market Growth 

Despite the increased demand for these products due to the rising number of patients suffering from chronic and acute wounds, the high cost associated with the treatment and reluctance among patients to continue with the treatment regimen is one of the key factors affecting the market growth. In the Asia Pacific region, chronic wounds impose a significant health care burden with devastating impact and high financial burden.

Furthermore, limited knowledge regarding the proper management of wounds in rural and less developed areas and the use of medicinal plant extracts to treat cuts and wounds is expected to limit the market growth.
