Which CVDs account for most deaths, with 17.9 Mn, followed by cancer & chronic respiratory diseases.
Moreover, with the rapidly growing workforce for home care services worldwide and the continuous rise in the senior population, home healthcare services are becoming more popular and augmenting the need for improved dressing products. Patients needing surgery must stay in the hospitals for longer or extended periods. As a result, many individual patients choose home treatment for hospital stays, as they get numerous benefits from that kind of service, like personal care, home-delivered meals, and many others.
However, effective and high-quality healing solutions are much more expensive and difficult for physicians, researchers, and patients, as it requires the installation of costly equipment, hampering their adoption in low-medium income countries.

The acute wounds segment is expected to grow at the fastest growth rate during the projected period. The growth of the segment market can be mainly attributed to increasing numbers of surgical site infections and the continuously rising prevalence or frequency of burn injuries across the globe. Moreover, the extensive growth in the global population, especially across the APAC region, and the surge in the number of road accidents because of the heavy traffic and lack of safety measures among people has led to a high demand for surgical procedures, which in turn, propelling the segment market growth.
The chronic wounds segment held the largest market share in 2022 and is likely to retain its position over the study period on account of the rising number of incidences of diabetes and diabetic foot ulcers, along with the growing prevalence of long-term inflammation and infections. For instance, as per the International Diabetes Federation (IDF), in 2021, around 537 Mn people between the age of 20-79 years were living with diabetes, and it is projected to rise to around 643 Mn by 2030 & 783 Mn, by 2045.
According to the National Center for Biotechnology, the annual incidence of diabetic ulcers is between 9.1-26.1 million. Nearly 15-25% of the patients suffer from diabetes mellitus, which turns into a diabetic foot ulcer during the future course of their life. Since the usage of film dressing aids in the healing of these kinds of ulcers, the segment market is growing rapidly and will have significant growth over the next coming years.
The hospital's segment accounted for considerable global market share in 2022, mainly driven by an increase in the number of hospitals, rising prevalence among patients regarding hospitalization, and a surge in the number of surgical site infections in the hospitals. Moreover, the growing spending on the development and advancement of healthcare infrastructure, especially in the emerging economies of the world, including India, China, South Korea, and Indonesia, and high implementation on developing multispecialty hospitals with departments dedicated to wound management are further anticipated to boost the demand and growth of the segment market.
The home healthcare segment is anticipated to expand at a significant CAGR during the forecast period, which is highly attributable to increasing patient's inclination from hospital to home care settings for their personalized wound care, as most of these procedures have very long prolonged healing phase, that makes it's necessary for regular dressing changes. Also, hospitals are comparatively much more expensive than home healthcare, due to which many patients cannot afford long hospitalization procedures. Thus they are shifting towards affordable treatment solutions, fueling the segment market growth.
The North America region dominated the global market in 2022 with a healthy market revenue share and is projected to maintain its dominance throughout the forecast period. The regional market growth can be attributed to a continuous rise in the prevalence of chronic wounds, the availability of well-developed and advanced healthcare infrastructure in countries like the US and Canada, and the large accessibility of various supportive reimbursement programs in the region. For instance, according to our findings, about 2.0% of the population in the United States is estimated to be affected by any chronic wound.
The Asia Pacific region is expected to emerge as the fastest-growing region in the global market over the coming years, owing to increased medical tourism and various prospects for introducing new advanced products in the film dressing market. A joint effort of governments and major market players in the region towards enhancing the healthcare system and offering innovative surgical procedures to their patients in the area is also likely to fuel the market's growth.
