Chronic Wound Care Market Size And Forecast

Chronic Wound Care Market size was valued at USD 12.4 Billion in 2022 and is projected to reach USD 16.1 Billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 3.1% from 2023 to 2030.

Chronic disorders such as diabetes, cancer, and other autoimmune diseases are expected to increase the incidence rate of chronic wounds over the world. Antimicrobial resistance, unhealthy and sedentary lifestyles, and cigarette and alcohol intake all contribute to the rise in noncommunicable disease prevalence. According to the CDC’s National Diabetes Statistics report for 2020, the number of diabetes patients has risen to an estimated 34.2 million, accounting for approximately 10.5% of the total population. According to a similar survey, an estimated 26.8 million individuals have diabetes, with another 7.3 million having diabetes but not being diagnosed.

Global Chronic Wound Care Market Definition

A chronic wound is one that is physiologically injured as a result of a disruption in the wound-healing cycle caused by innervation, poor angiogenesis, or cellular migration. A chronic wound has not progressed through the stages of healing in an ordered and timely way, and there has been no significant progression toward recovery in 30 days. Inappropriate treatment, pressure, trauma and lower extremity wounds, advanced bacterial load, and other factors can all contribute to the wound’s chronicity. Chronic wounds are often identified by a grown, hyperproliferative, non-advancing wound margin. The region around the wound will be irritated, which may impair healing. A patient’s chance of acquiring a chronic wound can be increased by a number of factors. Bariatric patients, those with diabetes or venous insufficiency, and the elderly are more vulnerable.

Again, the management of chronic wounds varies depending on the kind of wound. Typically, underlying problems must be addressed before wound healing may begin. Diabetics must improve their nutrition and vascular health, and diabetic and pressure ulcers will necessitate unloading for the afflicted region. Revascularization is required for arterial ulcers, whereas compression treatment is beneficial for venous ulcers. To recall the aspects that contribute to poor wound healing, the Wound Healing Society recommends using the acronym TIME. TIME is an acronym that stands for Tissue, such as the presence of necrotic tissue in a wound. MMoisture, i.e., whether the wound is macerated or dehydrated, and E(Wound) Edge – whether re-epithelializing or non-advancing.

Global Chronic Wound Care Market Overview

An increase in the worldwide elderly population, an increase in traumatic wounds and surgical procedures, and an increase in the frequency of chronic illnesses such as obesity and diabetes have all contributed to an increase in the incidence of chronic wounds over the previous decade. According to the International Diabetes Federation (IDF), more than 460 million individuals aged 20 to 79 globally have diabetes, with that number anticipated to climb to 700 million by 2045. Diabetes is a chronic disease that is known to generate complicated complications that generally do not heal on their own and necessitate surgery.

As a result, the rising number of diabetic patients is likely to cause considerable revenue growth in the market throughout the forecast period. Favorable government policies for new businesses in emerging nations are projected to open up tremendous prospects for industry participants to participate in the advanced wound care market. Increased R&D spending, as well as the launch of innovative and sophisticated wound care devices, would promote the Chronic Wound Care Market’s acceptance. As a result, the market has plenty of space to expand. With increased disposable money and patient knowledge, there is an increasing need for wound care since incorrect wound treatment can have a major negative influence on patients’ health and, in extreme situations, even result in death.

As a consequence, throughout the forecast period, this factor is likely to increase demand for the Chronic Wound Care Market. The high expense of chronic wound care solutions, on the other hand, will hinder market expansion. Furthermore, hazards connected with chronic wound care product cure therapy, as well as a lack of knowledge, would be a substantial limitation on the Chronic Wound Care Market’s revenue growth. Furthermore, growing product costs, as well as the availability of alternative wound care solutions, may impede market revenue development during the projection period.

Global Chronic Wound Care MarketSegmentation Analysis

The Global Chronic Wound Care Market is Segmented on the basis of Product, Application, End-Use, and Geography.

Chronic Wound Care Market, By Product

• Advanced Wound Dressing
• Surgical Wound Care
• Traditional Wound Care
• Wound Therapy Devices

Based on Product, the market is segmented into Advanced Wound Dressing, Surgical Wound Care, Traditional Wound Care, and Wound Therapy Devices. Advanced wound dressing led the market in 2022 and is predicted to expand at the quickest rate during the forecast period due to advances in technology, increased occurrences of chronic illnesses, and an increase in the number of sports-related injuries.

Chronic Wound Care Market, By Application

• Diabetic Foot Ulcers
• Pressure Ulcers
• Venous Leg Ulcers
• Others

Based on Application, the market is segmented into Diabetic Foot Ulcers, Pressure Ulcers, Venous Leg Ulcers, and Others. In 2022, the diabetic foot ulcers segment dominated the market. This is due to an increase in the number of diabetes patients worldwide. However, due to the rising prevalence of obesity and accompanying wounds, the pressure ulcers category is expected to expand the quickest throughout the projected period. Pressure ulcers are damage to the skin and underlying tissues caused by continuous cutaneous pressure. This can be caused by extended hospitalization and the inability to walk, which is especially common in the elderly and in cases of abrupt weight loss.

Chronic Wound Care Market, By End-Use

• Hospitals
• Specialty Clinics
• Home Healthcare
• Others

Based on the End-Use, the market is segmented into Hospitals, Specialty Clinics, Home Healthcare, Others. Due to the rising number of procedures worldwide, the hospital segment accounted for the largest revenue share. However, due to increased demand for shorter hospital stays, the home healthcare category is expected to develop at the quickest rate throughout the projection period. Increasing surgical operations, an increase in the frequency of diabetic foot ulcers, and an increase in the number of hospitals are some of the primary drivers driving category growth.

According to the most recent American Hospital Association study, the total number of hospitals in the United States is expected to reach 6,093 in 2022. Similarly, according to statistics, the number of hospitals in the United Kingdom has steadily expanded, with the total number of hospitals reaching 1,978 in 2019. As a result, such variables may raise the number of procedures, hence boosting segment growth throughout the projection period.
