The global digital wound measurement devices market is expected to witness a positive growth during the forecast period. Digital wound measurement devices enable monitoring of chronic wounds and deliver the appropriate drug dose to speed up the process of healing. Chronic wounds if not treated on time can lead to severe infections and amputations. Hence, digital wound measurement devices allow delivering tailored treatments after the 2D or 3D assessment of the infection and inflammation. The increasing number of patients suffering from chronic wounds drives the market growth. According to the Intermountain Healthcare (2017), 6.5 million people in the US suffer from chronic wounds. Diabetic wounds are severe, and the process of healing is very long and eventually may lead to amputations. Hence factors such as growing diabetic patients, rising geriatric population, and an increasing number of surgeries are major factors influencing the growth of the market. The emergence of smartphones, rapid use of advanced digital tools, and the advent of telehealth for wound care will also contribute for the market to grow.
However, factors such as, the inability of the device to provide additional information about wounds such as moistness or exudation and high costs of digital devices are expected to restrict the market growth during the forecast period.
