Based on product, the moist wound care segment held the largest revenue share of 70.75% in 2024. This dominance can be attributed to an increase in the number of wound cases and an increase in the number of surgeries globally. For instance, as per a report by Mass General Brigham Incorporated, in November 2024, each year, over 900,000 cardiac surgeries, such as coronary bypass surgeries, are conducted in the U.S., with even higher numbers worldwide. These surgeries involve the heart and its major blood vessels, including the pulmonary arteries and aorta.
The active wound care segment is expected to register growth at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period. The rising incidence of chronic illnesses like diabetes and obesity, which can cause wounds to heal slowly, is one of the main factors driving the segment growth over the forecast period. In addition, the market for active wound care is expanding due to the rise in the geriatric population and an increase in surgical procedures carried out globally. These factors are expected to propel the segment growth over the forecast period.
In terms of application, the chronic wounds segment dominated the market with the largest revenue share in 2024. An increasing prevalence of venous pressure ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, and other chronic wounds is anticipated to fuel the segment’s growth. For instance, according to the Agency for Healthcare Research & Quality, more than 2.5 million people in the U.S. develop pressure ulcers every year. Also, according to the NCBI, the incidence of pressure ulcers in a clinical setting may range from 4.0% to 38.0%. In addition, the report by the American Heart Association, Inc. in 2024 revealed a significant prevalence of diabetes in the U.S. adult population. Approximately 29.3 million adults have been diagnosed with diabetes, while an estimated 9.7 million adults remain undiagnosed, highlighting the critical public health challenge posed by this condition. The rise in the diabetic population is expected to increase the number of diabetic foot ulcer patients, thereby boosting chronic wound care market growth. Furthermore, the acute wounds segment is expected to witness the fastest CAGR of 4.91% during the forecast period. The increasing number of different traumatic wounds, such as road accidents, is the major factor driving the segment growth.
Based on end use, the hospital segment dominated the market with the largest revenue share of 46.0% in 2024. The growth of this segment can be attributed to an upsurge in surgical procedures and an increase in the number of hospital admissions. For instance, according to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, the number of hospitalizations in Australia has increased. For instance, according to Business Insider, nearly 1 million plastic surgery procedures are carried out in South Korea. Moreover, according to estimates by a similar source, one in three women between 19 and 29 have had plastic surgery. Therefore, the increase in the number of surgeries may lead to an increase in the use of advanced wound care products, which may further propel the market growth.
The home healthcare segment is expected to witness the fastest CAGR over the forecast period. During the COVID-19 pandemic, there was an increase in the demand for home healthcare advanced wound care products. Moreover, an increase in the geriatric population is anticipated to propel advanced wound care products further. The elderly population is more susceptible to chronic wounds and with an increase in age, the wound healing ability of the body slows down. Moreover, according to the Wound Care Learning Network, elderly people are more likely to be diagnosed with pressure ulcers. Thus, a rise in the elderly population may help the market propel.
