Global Silver Based Wound Dressing market is anticipated to register an impressive growth during the
forecast period, 2024-2028. An increase in acute wound surgeries is expected to
support the growth of global silver-based
wound dressing market. Conventional closure and wound care products are progressively being
replaced by advanced closure solutions and wound care management due to their
effectiveness in wound management by facilitating quicker recovery are
considered major factors responsible for fueling the silver based wound
dressing market in the coming years. According to the World Health
Organization data, over 305 million traumatic, acute, and burn wounds are
registered and treated each year globally. Furthermore, it is estimated that
nearly 2% of the population in developed countries suffers from chronic wounds
each year. Silver has been used as an antibacterial, and medical
professionals all over the world are aware about the beneficial properties of
silver for treating injured wounds. The prevalence of wounds that are
challenging to heal, such as lacerations, ulcers, and burns, has increased
patient awareness. The information about the antibacterial properties of silver
as well as the importance of providing effective and safe wound care and wound
management helps in healing the wound injuries. As a wound dressing, silver
promotes quicker healing, a decreased risk of infection, and affordable
treatment.
Rising Chronic Diseases
According
to the US Department of Health, chronic diseases are expected to become a great
cause of death for adults in the next ten years. Approximately, one third of
adults worldwide have multiple chronic conditions. The wound-healing process
can be affected by high bacterial counts, multi-resistant organisms, and
bacterial biofilms, especially in chronic wounds. By competing with host cells
for nutrients and oxygen and producing waste products that are toxic to host
cells, bacteria slows the healing of wounds. In
acute and chronic wounds, such as surgical wounds, burns, pressure ulcers, leg
ulcers, and diabetic foot ulcers, silver dressings can be used as primary or
secondary dressings to manage minimal, moderate, or heavy exudate. To lower the
bacterial load, contain exudate, and enhance the appearance of the wound's
granulation tissue, they can also be used in conjunction with specific topical
and adjunctive therapies.
This, in turn, is expected to drive the growth of the global silver-based wound
dressing market. Furthermore, acute kidney injury (AKI), also
known as acute renal failure or acute kidney injury, is very common in patients
who are in hospitals. Acute kidney injury (AKI) affects more than 13 million
people and results in 1.7 million deaths every year across the globe. Owing to the rising incidences of chronic wound diseases, the demand
for early diagnosis and treatments is expected to surge, which will bolster the
growth of the market.

Increase in the number
of Diabetic Foot Ulcers
The
market is also supported by the rising number of diabetic foot ulcers. One of
the most common forms of chronic wound is a diabetic foot ulcer. The demand for
the global silver-based wound dressing market is anticipated to increase due to
the rising prevalence of diabetes and the rising incidence of foot ulcers among
diabetic patients. One of the most serious complications of diabetes is a
diabetic foot ulcer. A person with diabetes is more likely than a non-diabetic
patient to develop diabetic foot ulcers, according to numerous clinical trials
studies. The International Diabetes Federation estimates that 7.3 million
adults in Japan had diabetes in 2020, and the prevalence rate was projected to
increase by 7.9%. New product launches also support the market.
Rising
Cases of Traumatic Events and Road Accidents
One
of the main factors driving the market's expansion is the increase in traumatic
incidents and auto accidents. For instance, according to the American
Association for the Surgery of Trauma, there were approximately 1.2 million deaths
worldwide in 2017, or 3,242 casualties per day. Such situations are anticipated
to increase demand for quick-healing wound dressings. The World Health
Organization predicts that the leading cause of death for children and young
adults in 2022 will be traffic-related injuries. Road accidents claim the
lives of about 1.3 million people every year. The rise in the prevalence of
several injuries as well as increasing focus on silver based wound dressing
products by pharmaceutical companies owing to the greater awareness of the
beneficial properties of silver incorporated dressings on chronic and acute
wounds is expected to fuel the growth of the market during the forecast period.
