Rising, Fading Technologies in the Global Market for Wound Closure
Technologies emerge, gain clinical acceptance, grow in caseload and become the standard of care. Then new technologies emerge, developed to improve on or eclipse established technologies. They gain acceptance and the cycle continues.
Technologies emerge, gain clinical acceptance, grow in caseload and become the standard of care. Then new technologies emerge, developed to improve on or eclipse established technologies. They gain acceptance and the cycle continues.
The pace of technology and market development in the products used in wound closure — sealants, glues, hemostats, sutures/staples, tape, and vascular closure devices — follow this path as characteristically as any medtech market. However, the pace of adoption varies both by technology type and geographic location. Consequently, there is a pretty wide range of compound annual growth rates in the sales of these product globally, regionally and by country.
Below illustrates the highest growth segment-geography combinations in the wound closure market. This frequently illustrates that novel technologies more rapidly penetrate well developed economies, which can sustain the initial high premium pricing of novel technologies, then progressively migrate to less well developed economies. (For the sake of direct comparison, the high and low growth graphics are shown on the same scale.)
