Vascular patches are used for closing sutures in vascular surgeries required for treatment of cardiovascular diseases among others. Effective primary closure of sutures is a crucial factor in all surgical procedures. These patches are produced from biological or synthetic materials and are characterized by excellent biocompatibility with the proven long-term mechanical stability.
Vascular patches have excellent handling properties, and their microporous structure allows proper tissue incorporation. The high elasticity of vascular patches ensures minimum suture hole bleeding with high compliance.
Factors such as the increasing number of vascular surgeries, geriatric population along with the growing adoption of biological patches, and the demand for minimally invasive surgeries drive the market growth of global vascular patches market. On the other hand, factors like the lowering number of carotid endarterectomy surgeries due to the low preference along with the lack of expertise in the manufacturing, mishandling, and applications restrict the market growth.
