Dissolvable Sutures Market is Growing at a Promising CAGR of 5.2% During Forecast 2018-2023
Market Highlights:
Dissolvable sutures are stitches that doctors and surgeons, use to
hold skin, internal organs, blood vessels, and all other tissues of the human
body together, after the injury, incision, or surgery. These sutures have an
anticipated advantage as they are broken down in the body tissue after a given period, and no
foreign material is left inside the patient's
body.
The global Dissolvable Sutures Market
is driven by the growing aging
population, increasing incidences of chronic diseases, rising healthcare
expenditure, increasing number of
surgeries and burns, and rising number of
hospitals. In addition, immense
technological advancements in material science and increasing occurrences of
musculoskeletal diseases are likely to propel the market growth during the
forecast period.
Despite the drivers, the development of advanced wound care
dressings and availability of alternatives such as surgical staplers and
complications such as hemorrhage and leakage
especially in esophageal and colonic anastomosis are a few factors restraining
the growth of the dissolvable sutures market. Furthermore, stringent government
regulations and increasing preference for minimally invasive surgical
procedures are the constraints limiting the market growth.
Many prominent
players currently dominate the global dissolvable sutures market. For instance, in April 2017 Medtronic Plc signed an
agreement to divest a portion of its patient monitoring & recovery division
to Cardinal Health for 6.1 USD billion. In this agreement, the company intends
to include 17 dedicated manufacturing facilities among the product line such as
dental/animal health, chart paper, wound care, incontinence, electrodes, and sharp
safety offerings. Moreover, the Surgigut gut sutures by Medtronic are made up
of purified connective tissue derived serosal layer of bovine intestines. The
other Medtronic dissolvable sutures include VELOSORB fast braided absorbable
sutures, CAPROSYN monofilament absorbable suture, and POLYSORB braided
absorbable sutures.
