The Global Absorbent Dressings Market size is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.3% during the forecast period, to reach USD 116 billion by 2028. The growth in the market is primarily driven by the increasing number of surgeries being performed globally, which has led to an increase in demand for absorbent dressings and their usage during and after surgery as they help reduce chances of infections and other complications such as leakage.
Absorbent Dressings are generally used in the management of wounds. There is a wide range of absorbable wound dressings available on the market today, which vary from each other based on their absorptive capacity and release properties. These include gauze, cotton wool, surgical mesh, and film-based products.
The use of these dressing aids can help to reduce pain caused by excessive contact with the open wound area that would otherwise be caused by direct contact with medical equipment or clothing. This also minimizes air circulation around an injection site due to sticking plaster providing coverage for damaged skin areas such as burns, ulcers, and bedsores while simultaneously preventing secondary infections through its antiseptic properties.
On the basis of Types, the market is segmented into Non-Adherent, Adherent, and Low-Adhesive dressings.
A non-adherent absorbent dressing is a type of wound care product that consists of an adhesive layer. It can be applied directly to the skin and left in place for up to several days, depending on its purpose. They are usually used when the patient will heal with little scarring or if they have open wounds like burns. They also hold pressure better than other types of dressings/bandages.
These dressings adhere only loosely to the skin so as not to interfere with healing while still providing some protection from external irritants like dirt or bacteria. The most common forms of these products are pads, sheets, and films which cover larger wounds such as leg ulcers or pressure ulcers. In some cases, they can also be used to cover a person’s entire leg.
A type of absorbent dressings that are applied to the skin and adhere tightly. Sometimes called 'surgical' or 'bonded', these types of bandages create a seal with the skin in order to trap wound fluid in an attempt to prevent infection.
The key objective for adherent dressings is not absorption, but prevention of leakage from wounds by maintaining contact between dressing surface and wound bed while arresting potential sources of contamination at their point-of-entry into the body. Adherent Dressings can be used on smaller wounds such as surgical incisions, cuts, scrapes, and bites too.
The low-adhesive dressings market segment includes products that are capable of absorbing excess fluid from wounds, minor cuts, and abrasions. This type of product is usually used in first aid situations for quick wound treatment. These products differ from traditional adhesive bandages as they can be removed easily without causing further harm to the skin or other tissue underneath the dressing.
Low adhesion elastic wraps use a porous fabric with an absorbent pad on one side which has a high degree of wicking capability. The material also features perforations for breathability and drainage holes at regular intervals to allow fluids to escape freely while still retaining their ability to maintain pressure over the wound site.
On the basis of Application, the market is segmented into Hospital, Clinic, and Home Care. The Absorbent Dressings are used in a hospital setting is as surgical sponges during surgery where blood loss, fluids, and medication need to be absorbed by the dressing so they do not leak onto -and contaminate- any other surfaces.
On the basis of Region, the market is segmented into North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Middle East & Africa. The North American market is anticipated to dominate the global absorbent dressings market during the forecast period. The rising prevalence of chronic diseases and increasing incidence rates for adverse events in hospitals are driving the growth of this region’s market.
The European market is expected to grow significantly, the growth factors that can largely be attributed to advanced healthcare infrastructure coupled with rising expenditure on healthcare products & services by governments across Europe as well as private organizations.
The short-term growth of the global absorbent dressings market is expected to be driven by factors such as increasing awareness about infection control and growing demand for personal protective equipment. In addition, a rise in chronic diseases across various geographies will bolster demand from consumers who seek medication that can help them reduce their risk of adverse effects on clothing caused by incontinence or are looking to avoid travel restrictions due to possible exposure.
These trends coupled with an aging population and increased focus on patient safety initiatives will propel the long-term growth of this market during the forecast period.
