Wound Care Biologics Market
Wound care biologic products facilitates in innate repair mechanisms, and involves the use of active biological agents such as animal and plant-derived active biomolecules, which exhibit antioxidant, antimicrobial, or anti-inflammatory properties. Wound care biologic dressings are increasingly being used in post surgeries and severe trauma cases as they provide moist healing environment aiding heat loss, protein and electrolyte loss for faster healing, and prevent bacterial contamination. Biologic skin substitute products include tissue-engineered products, which are designed to either temporarily or permanently replace the altered skin. Skin substitutes are commonly used products for wound management and have application for treating various ailments such as pressure ulcers, diabetic neuropathic ulcers, and vascular insufficiency ulcers.
Market Dynamics
Increasing incidences of chronic ulcers, owing to rising prevalence of diabetes, increasing surgical procedures, and rise in trauma cases are major driving factors for growth of wound care biologics market. According to the survey by World Health Organization, 2014, injuries resulting from traffic collisions, drowning, poisoning, falls or burns account for 9% of the global mortality. Also, according to a study by BMJ Journal Injury Prevention, 2013, an estimated 973 million people sustained injuries that warranted some type of healthcare and 4.8 million people died from injuries. The Journal also stated that major injury causes included road injury (29.1%), self-harm (17.6%), falls (11.6%), and interpersonal violence (8.5%). Manufacturers are also focused on extensive research and development to develop new products and expand their product portfolio. For instance, in 2016, Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation received FDA approval for Integra Dermal Regeneration Template (IDRT) for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers that is marketed under the name of Integra Omnigraft Dermal Regeneration Matrix. Moreover, public awareness for biologics has positively contributed to the market growth, as people are opting for enhanced medical care for preventing wounds to minimize the morbidity associated with the formation of chronic wounds. However, higher cost of the biologics and stringent regulatory approvals for launch of innovative tissue engineered products are hindering growth of the wound care biologics market.
