Global Traditional Wound Management Market– Driver

Research on New kind of Bandages for the Wound Management

To meet the needs of patients, U.S. researchers have developed a novel smart bandage with biosensors that can help heal chronic wounds, like diabetic ulcers, and burns. The smart bandage developed by researchers at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) may make treatment of these wounds easier, more effective and less expensive. Unlike a typical bandage, which might only consist of layers of absorbent material, smart bandages are made from a flexible and stretchy polymer containing embedded electronics and medication.

Fires and burns are the fifth leading cause of unintentional injury-related deaths to children ages <1-19 in the U.S.

Global Traditional Wound Management Market– Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic

Since the COVID-19 virus outbreak in December 2019, the disease spread to over 100 countries across the globe, and the World Health Organization declared it a public health emergency on January 30, 2020.

COVID-19 affected the economy in three main ways: by directly affecting the production and demand of drugs, by creating disruptions in distribution channels, and through its financial impact on firms and financial markets. Due to nationwide lockdowns, several countries such as China, India, Saudi Arabia, the U.A.E., Egypt, and others are facing problems with the transportation of drugs from one place to another.

Global Traditional Wound Management Market Segmentation:

The global traditional wound management market report is segmented into by Product Type, by Application, by End User, and by Region.

By Product Type, the market is segmented into Bandages, Gauzes, and Sponges. Out of which, the bandages segment is expected to hold a dominant position in the traditional wound management market during the forecast period and this is attributed to the increasing usage, and easy to apply in affected area without any concern.

By Application, the market is segmented into Skin and Diabetic Ulcers, Burns, Surgeries, Trauma, and Others (skin cuts, primary dressings etc.). Out of which, the burns segment is expected to hold a dominant position in the traditional wound management market during the forecast period and this is attributed to the increasing prevalence rate of burn rate all over the world.

By End User, the market is segmented into Hospital, Clinics, Homecare Setting, and Ambulatory Surgical Centers. Out of which, the hospital segment is expected to dominate the market over the forecast period and this is a result of the hospital facilities' increased ability to treat burns and wounds.

Among all the segmentations, the product type segment has the highest potential due to the increasing usage of bandages over the forecast period. Commercial cotton gauze bandages are applied on wounds to prevent contact with dust and/or pathogens, while ensuring enough aeration for accelerated wound healing. More often than not, these bandages are used in conjunction with antiseptic (topical) agents to avoid any post-dressing infections. Additionally, healing medications need to be orally administered to accelerate the healing process and manage the pain. Mechanical debridement remains a problem upon removal of the wound dressing material which leads to delayed healing.

Global Traditional Wound Management Market Cross Sectional Analysis:

Rising prevalence rate of burns and wounds cases, and also easy-to-use, cost effective bandages in emerging economies is expected to boost demand for traditional wound management in these regions. For instance, according to the Polish Journal of Surgery 2020, a randomized clinical trial was conducted on patients with an non-displaced extra-articular fracture (NDEA) fracture of the distal radius, and it was found that bandage is the more appropriate treatment option for NDEA fractures of distal radius.
