Wound measurement devices are medical equipment used to measure the wound surface and provide a visual, clear picture of how wounds appear with and without the use of a camera. They are also adopted for documenting wounds and assessing digital images across diverse medical and healthcare domains. These equipments include labels, tracing materials, skin markers, flow stickers, and others which are used to determine the depth, width, length, and surface area of the wound.
Wound is defined as an injury to the body or disruption in the continuous structure of the skin from accident, surgery, violence, or burn causing a laceration. The nature of the wound may differ from simple abrasion to complex skin, organ, or tissue damage. Hence, proper assessment of the wound is of immense importance to provide suitable and proper wound care.
Traditionally, wound measurement devices included surgical rulers and scales which were used to measure the dimension of the wound, which are considered inaccurate or crude. With increasing technological advancement and growing emphasis on proper wound care, innovative optical instruments such as stereophotogrammeter are now being introduced and used across the world. Such developments are projected to favor the growth in the global market.
With increasing fast-paced lifestyle and growing obese population, a significant rise in burden of chronic wounds, such as ischemic wounds, ulcers, and others are being witnessed across the world. For instance, according to a study by the Mission Regional Medical Center, around 6.9 million people are reported to be suffering from chronic wounds and nearly 2 million people are estimated to develop diabetic foot ulcers or other non-healing wounds every year across the U.S.
Wound measurement devices are plays a crucial role in the wound assessment and documentation of wound progressions and regressions by repeated and accurate measurement of wound size for better wound care. Thus, increasing prevalence of chronic wounds are estimated to bolster the growth in the market.
Moreover, growing awareness regarding the severity of these aforementioned wounds, such as loss of infection area or limb, and rising customer inclination towards adopting advanced wound management and treatment is fueling the demand for wound measurement devices. In addition to this, increasing burden of musculoskeletal injuries, orthopedic surgeries, lymphedema, and others are projected to create strong growth opportunities for wound measurement devices in the coming years.
Wounds are not categorized as actual disorders or diseases, even though the death rate from wounds is greater than any infectious or chronic illness. Attributed to this, the center for excellence in wound management and wound care is highly fragmented, unlike those of diabetes, cancers, and other fatal ailments.
This absence of a centralized framework to promote and orchestrate a multidisciplinary network comprising of surgeons, specialty nursing, health economists, and others is limiting the adoption of wound measurement devices across commercial medical settings. This, along with high initial cost and need for qualified medical personnel is hindering the growth in the global market.
FMI states that North America is projected to emerge as the most lucrative market for wound measurement devices during the forecast period 2022-2032.
With surging adoption of advanced wound management solutions and growing prevalence of complex and chronic wounds across North America, leading players in the market are focusing on introducing technologically advanced wound care and documentation solutions.
For instance, in 2021, MolecuLight Inc., a Canadian advanced wound care solutions company announced launching a new point-of-care wound assessment and imaging device, MolecuLightDX™, featuring real-time detection of elevated bacterial burden and comprehensive electronic medical record (EMR) integration options. A slew of such new product launches is estimated to favor the growth in the North America market.
FMI states that Asia Pacific excluding Japan is expected to account for a significant share in the global wound measurement devices market during the forecast period 2022-2032.
Rapidly increasing automotive vehicles sales and growing road traffic across the countries such as China, India, Australia, Bangladesh, and others have resulted in a substantial rise in road accidents across Asia Pacific, fueling the demand for acute wound care equipments.
For instance, according to a study by Anadolu Agency, nearly 450,000 road accidents are reported across India every year. This rise in incidence results in increasing the adoption of wound measurement devices for the assessment and treatment of acute wounds, such as cuts, bruises, and others, caused due to road accidents. Hence, growing prevalence of road accidents is anticipated to accelerate the demand for wound measurement devices in the Asia Pacific excluding Japan market.
