Analyst Review
The hydrogel dressing therapies function on the principle of moisture therapy. This involves keeping the wound hydrated to facilitate faster healing. In addition, they are resistant to exogenous infection and foreign particles, which boosts the adoption of hydrogel dressing.
The adoption of hydrogel dressing products such as amorphous hydrogel, impregnated hydrogel, and sheet hydrogel is expected to increase significantly, owing to rise in prevalence of chronic diseases and conditions such as ulcer, diabetes, obesity, and burn. In addition, these products help maintain a steady temperature around the wound, facilitate oxygen flow, relieve pain during dressing changes, and protect wounds from infection, which further fuel their demand in the healthcare settings. Moreover, rise in adoption of evidence-based treatments for chronic wounds, problems associated with traditional wound healing methods, and attempts to reduce the duration of the hospital stay to lower healthcare expenses drive the growth of the global hydrogel dressing market.
