The global
negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) market is anticipated to reach a
value of USD 4.0 billion by 2025, according to a new report by Grand View
Research, Inc. Increasing awareness in the developing regions pertaining to
advanced wound care is providing a significant opportunity to the key market
players to cater to the unmet needs of the target population. The primary
driver associated with this market is the cost-effectiveness of single-use
negative pressure wound therapy devices.
Major
companies are also focusing on education of reimbursement coveragein such
regions to further increase the affordability of these devices. However, the current
reimbursement policies mostly cover conventional NPWT devices owing to their
high cost.Furthermore, the geriatric population is also contributing to a great
extent toward increasing the prevalence of chronic diseases. Increasing age is
one of the high risk factorsleading to the development of chronic diseases such
as atherosclerosis, which is one of the prime cardiovascular disorders
prevalent in the geriatric population.
NPWT is one
of the commonly accepted therapies employed for the treatment of arterial
ulcers, which is one of the major complications of atherosclerosis. Around 50%
of the people worldwide are exposed to fire-related traumas, among which, 90%
of the cases occur in low to moderate income countries.Thus, the rising
incidence of traumatic events is expected toengender a high demand for negative
pressure wound therapy products.
