and secondary wound care products in burns, ulcers, radionecrosis and others. These
wound closure and advanced wound care products are mainly used in therapeutic
procedures to avoid complications and enhance patient safety.
According to IQ4I analysis, the wound closure and advanced wound care global market is
expected to reach $25,268.9 million by 2023. Increasing incidence of aging population and
prevalence of lifestyle diseases, increase in surgical procedural volume, increase in
prevalence of chronic wounds and government initiatives are some of the factors driving the
wound closure and advanced wound care market. Demand for biologics, emergence of
technically advanced products and acquisition to open an array of opportunities for market to
flourish are some of the opportunities for wound closure and advanced wound care market.
However, lack of trained professional in handling the sophisticated advanced wound care
techniques, expensive sealants and glues impeding effective penetration in low and middle
income countries are some of the factors hampering the market growth.

burn wounds, RECELL and various types of surgical sutures. One of the emerging trend in
this market includes growth factors, these are the substances that are used to stimulate the
growth and proliferation of the cells involved in wound healing and reduction of inflammation,
these cells are secreted by the body and these factors influence the growth of wound healing
cells by increasing their numbers, thus resulting in faster wound healing. Presently growth
factors are most oftenly used in patients with chronic and non-healing wounds such as
chronic venous leg ulcers and diabetic foot ulcers. Cutimed Epiona developed by BSN
Medical is a new VLU integrated solution that features a process of removing exudates and
bacteria, reducing edema and preventing recurrence of chronic wounds. This product
involves BSN’s DCC technology for infection management and it’s a type of native collagen
that helps to rebuild the tissue.
Developed regions such as North America commanded the largest market share in 2016
