Wound Care Biologics Market by Region - Global Industry Insights, and Forecast to 2025
Wound Care Biologics Market |
Bioengineered products called
wound care biologics are used to treat non-healing lower extremity wounds. As
early intervention of diabetic ulcers can prevent serious complications like
infection, hospitalisation, and amputation, demand for wound care biologic
products is anticipated to rise significantly. Since the commercially available
skin substitutes have clinical and experimental evidence of efficacy in wound
healing, the market for wound care biologics is anticipated to grow
significantly.
Given that diabetic patients are
more likely to develop diabetic ulcers, the market for wound care biologics is
anticipated to grow significantly with the rise in the prevalence of diabetes
worldwide. According to the Global Diabetes Community, 642 million adults will
have diabetes worldwide by 2040, up from an estimated 422 million in 2017.
Peripheral neuropathy, foot ulceration, and peripheral arterial disease (PAD)
are twice as common in diabetic patients as they are in non-diabetics,
affecting 30% of diabetics aged 40 and older, according to the Journal of Foot
and Ankle Surgery, 2016. This has led to an increase in the burden of diabetic
complications.
The Global
Wound Care Biologics Market Was Valued At US$ 1.2 Billion In 2016
And Is Expected To Exhibit A Robust CAGR Of 6.9% Over The Forecast Period
(2017–2025).
Additionally, according to the
Advances in Wound Care Journal from 2015, 15% to 20% of people with diabetes
are likely to experience chronic, non-healing foot wounds. In order to manage
chronic wounds affordably and lessen the financial burden of the patients,
wound care biologic products are offered to them. The high cost of skin
substitutes and associated biologics, however, is a significant barrier to the
market's expansion. For instance, the Advances in Skin Substitutes Journal
(2014) estimates that the cost of using Epicel to cover 1% of a body's surface
area will be more than $13,000. As a result, alternative and less expensive
wound care products are adopted more frequently, which is expected to have a
negative impact on market growth.
Over the course of the forecast,
Asia Pacific is anticipated to experience significant growth in the global
market for wound care biologics. The high prevalence of diabetic patients in
Asian nations is to blame for this. In 2016, the Indian Diabetes Research
Foundation estimates that 60% of people with diabetes live in Asia, with China
and India accounting for the majority of those cases. The Foundation also notes
that Western Pacific reported having more than 138.2 million diabetics, with a
projected increase to 201.8 million by 2035.
Moreover, a significant factor in
the market's growth is the expansion of medical tourism in Asia and the
Pacific. The number of foreign patients is rising as a result of hospitals
offering more affordable treatment options for managing wounds. In 2017,
approximately 4 million medical tourists travelled to India for medical
treatment, 3.5 million foreign patients travelled to Thailand for medical
treatment, and 900,000 patients travelled to Singapore for medical treatment.
This number is predicted to increase by 10% to 14% by 2020, according to a
survey by the Brink Global Risk Center.
Because chronic non-healing
wounds are becoming more common and cost the healthcare system money, North
America is predicted to dominate the wound care biologics market. The average
cost of treating a single foot ulcer in 2016 was $8,000, and the average cost
of a major amputation was $45,000, according to the American Diabetes
Association. Additionally, with nearly 2 million cases, venous leg ulcers are
the most prevalent type of wound in the United States.
