Global Moist Wound Dressings Market Analysis

The global moist wound dressings market size was $4,120 million in 2021 and is predicted to expand at a CAGR of 5.2%, generating a revenue of $6,807.2 million by 2031.

Global Moist Wound Dressings Market Synopsis

Moist wound dressings are the most commonly used dressings in wound care. The rising popularity of moist wound dressings can be attributed to factors such as optimal moisture levels for cell growth and proliferation and expansion during wound healing phases. Moist wound dressings have advantages over standard dressings, such as proper exudate control, less pain and scarring, and faster wound healing.

A moist wound environment has several advantages that lead to faster and higher-quality healing. It promotes and facilitates keratinocyte migration over the wound surface, reduces pain and scarring, activates collagen synthesis, and supports the presence and function of nutrients, growth factors, and other soluble mediators in the wound microenvironment. Wound dressings can be used to create, maintain, and control a moist healing environment. Films, foams, hydrocolloids, hydrogels, and alginates are the various types of moist wound dressings. These factors are anticipated to boost the moist wound dressings market growth.

Some of the disadvantages of moist wound dressings include air exposure. Exposure to air reduces the surface temperature of the wound, causing peripheral vasoconstriction, which reduces blood flow (carrying oxygen and nutrients) to the wound and delays healing. This factor restrains the growth of the moist wound dressings industry.

Growing demographics and economies in developing countries like China, Japan, and India are expected to drive growth in the Asia-Pacific moist wound dressings market. Furthermore, new innovations in wound care products and technologies, increased technology adoption, and increased patient awareness about infections are expected to open up new opportunities for the global moist wound dressings market.

On the basis of region, the North America moist wound dressing market accounted for the highest market share for moist wound dressings because of highly trained professionals, an increase in chronic disease incidence, and increase in awareness of moist wound dressing market trends and technologies in the region.

Moist Wound Dressings Market Overview

A wound dressing is a technique or procedure that protects the wound from microbial infections, necrosis spread, and new contamination. Wound dressing improves wound healing by covering them with a moist wound healing bandage. Wounds are caused by damage to living tissue as a result of burns, accidents, cuts, scrapes, and chronic diseases such as diabetes.

Moist wound dressing creates a moist environment that aids in wound healing. This moist wound environment protects tissues from dehydration, alleviates pain, and promotes the breakdown of dead tissue.

COVID-19 Impact on Global Moist Wound Dressings Market

The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on healthcare systems' ability to provide curative and preventive services, particularly to the most vulnerable populations. During the pandemic, wound treatment centers in Italy saw a significant decrease in the number of hospital admissions because only emergencies, such as severe infections or wound hemorrhagic complications, were permitted in the hospitals.

The COVID-19 pandemic impacted primary-care clinician consultations, hospitalizations, and diagnostic workups for moist wound care management. The pandemic's restrictions had no negative impact on wound-related QOL or home care. Many healthcare organizations and governments used telemedicine for wound care management, particularly in cases of severe wounds, because it reduced the risk of infection and contact between physicians and patients. However, telemedicine had a negligible impact on wound care management in Germany despite its obvious benefits in risk reduction.

Increase in Applications of Moist Wound Dressings in the Hospitals Sector to Drive the Market Growth

Moist wound dressings have vast application in healthcare for hospitalized patients. The increase in chronic wound conditions in developing countries is one of the factors that drive the moist wound market growth. According to the American Burn Association, about 450,000 patients are admitted each year in the U.S. as a result of burns, increasing their risk of infection. According to a survey conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in January 2020, surgical site infection (SSI) is one of the most expensive types of healthcare-associated illness (HAI) in the U.S. As a result, the market for moist wound dressings is rising at a quicker rate.

High Cost of Wound Dressings to Restrain the Market Growth

The global wound dressings market is expected to be impacted by challenges such as product recalls, the availability of alternative products, and the high cost of wound dressing products during the forecast period. A growing number of product recalls are caused by product malfunction, component inconsistency, and packaging issues. However, the cost of care with advanced wound dressings is frequently high when compared to traditional wound dressings, which is anticipated to hamper the moist wound dressings market growth.

Technological Advancement and Initiatives to Improve Healthcare Systems to Drive Excellent Opportunities  

Numerous advancements in wound dressing contribute significantly to the market's overall growth. Wound dressing advancements have resulted in a shift from basic dressings to advanced pharmaceutically active ingredient products and devices. Wound dressings have advanced to the point where, while actively encouraging wound healing, they now maintain a moist wound environment. Furthermore, new treatments such as radiation therapy, electrical stimulation, nanotechnology, and the use of silver and other hybrid bandages are being introduced to improve the overall industry. These advancements provide patients with great relief during any trauma recovery, thereby increasing demand and serving as high-impact rendering drivers for the overall market.

The foam dressings segment accounted for a dominant moist wound dressings market share in 2021. Foam dressings are partially permeable polyurethane wound dressings. They are non-linting and non-adherent dressings that only enable water vapor to enter and prevent germs and other pollutants from entering. Foam dressings can be used to treat surgical wounds, skin grafts, mild burns, skin irritation, infected wounds, facial injuries, draining mucous membrane wounds, and leg ulcers.

The hydrogel dressings segment is anticipated to show the fastest growth during the forecast period.  The hydrogel dressing can control wound infection and perform autolytic debridement of necrotic tissue by piggybacking on antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs during the inflammatory phase. Hydrogel dressings provide moisture and are suitable for wounds of any size, full or partial thickness. They can also be used in necrotic or infected wounds. Hydrogel dressings are made up of 90% water in a gel suspension.

Global Moist Wound Dressings Market, by Application

On the basis of application, the market has been divided into diabetic foot ulcers, pressure ulcers, venous leg ulcers, surgical and traumatic wounds, burns, and others. Among these, the surgical and traumatic wounds segment accounted for the highest revenue share in 2021.
