The Global Silver Dressings and Bandages Market is expected to reach USD 1.9 billion by 2028 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.0% during the forecast period (2021-2028). The increasing prevalence of chronic wounds and surgical wounds coupled with the growing geriatric population base is anticipated to drive demand over the next eight years.
Silver Dressings and Bandages are also termed a silver-impregnated or silver-coated wound dressing. These dressings can be used for various applications including surgical wounds, chronic wounds, burns injuries, etc., Silver-based materials have a high bactericidal level to perform their function in the most efficient way.
The usage of these devices is expected to increase significantly due to their anti-microbial properties which help reduce infection rates post-surgery. Patients with diabetes mellitus will experience fewer incidences of infections when treated with this device because it reduces microbial growth on the skin surface by up to 99%.
On the basis of Types, the market is segmented into Silver Foam Dressings and Bandages, Silver Alginate Wound Dressings & Bandages, Silver Barrier Dressing & Bandages.
Silver foam dressings and bandages are a type of topical antimicrobial dressing that is used to prevent or treat wound infections. Silver has been known for its bactericidal properties from ancient times, with silver nitrate being the most well-known example of this application in modern medicine. They use ionized silver through oxygenation which then oxidizes bacteria on contact as it slowly dissolves into them.
Silver Alginate Wound Dressings are a type of dressing used to cover an open wound or ulcer. Silver alginates typically consist of sodium alginate and silver nitrate, which can be made in different concentrations to change the level of antimicrobial protection for wounds.
It is applied over debrided necrotic tissue and dried by air exposure as it dries through osmosis from the moisture present on its surface; this process creates a foam-like coating that covers the wound with a thin layer of gel. The dressing’s antimicrobial properties help prevent infection while also providing pain relief during therapy or restoration processes
Silver Barrier Dressing & Bandages is a dressing that prevents the transmission and infection of microorganisms from one part of the body to another. These are used to fight against infections. Silver is a good bacteriostatic agent, which means it stops bacterial growth. It also kills bacteria by interfering with their cell metabolism process. When silver ions come in contact with these cells, they disrupt them so the organism dies quickly without reproducing itself or causing harm to the living tissue of humans and animals.
On the basis of Applications, the market is segmented into Surgical wounds, Burns Wounds, Chronic Wounds, and Others.
The surgical wound is a natural or artificial break in the skin that may be caused by an injury to tissues beneath it. It can arise due to surgery (e.g., incisions), penetrating trauma such as stabs or gunshot wounds, bites of many kinds including animal attacks and shark bites, cuts from sharp instruments like knives or scissors when these are used without gloves; perforating injuries such as those from shrapnel where metal shards enter directly into the tissue under the skin but do not exit through what would have been the point of entry had they remained within their original casing.
A burn refers to any type of damage done to a living organism's body by exposure to heat, chemicals, or radiation. It can be minor as a first-degree burn (reddening of the skin) or major with third-degree burns involving full-thickness destruction of tissues
Chronic wounds are defined as those that have been present for more than three months and involve an area greater than two square centimeters in size. They may also include ulcers (open sores), fistulae, hematomas (abnormal accumulation of blood), or other pathological conditions.
On the basis of Region, the market is segmented into North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Middle East & Africa. The US is the largest market for silver dressings and bandages. Factors such as the high prevalence of chronic wounds in the elderly population (with associated costs) have led to increasing demand. These types of dressings can be less costly and offer better adhesion than traditional compression therapy using gauze pads.
The key drivers for the growth of this market are e rising number of injuries and medical conditions, improvement in quality of life for patients with chronic wounds or burns
