In 2011, nearly 100 million wounds were treated in U.S. hospitals; these
included amputations; arterial, diabetic, pressure, and venous ulcers; burns,
surgical wounds; and traumatic wounds. In the same year, treatment of these
wounds generated more than $3.8 billion in wound closure product sales
(including traditional products such as sutures, stapling systems, and wound
closure strips, as well as emerging products such as surgical sealants and
glues, energy-based closure devices, automated suturing products, and negative
pressure wound therapy systems). Over the forecast period covered by this
report, sales of traditional and emerging wound closure products are expected
to increase at a compound annual rate of 4.0%, reaching more than $4.6 billion
in the year 2016.
This new report by Medtech Insight presents a detailed overview of the U.S.
current and emerging wound closure products market. Major topics covered by
this report include a an overview of the physiology of wound closure; a
discussion of traditional wound closure products such as sutures, stapling
products, and wound closure strips; a discussion of emerging wound closure
products such as surgical sealants and glues, energy-based closure devices,
automated suturing devices, and negative pressure wound therapy products; and
analyses of the sales and leading competitors in each of these markets.
