M2 - Wed Oct 01, 6:48AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/9xtlbb/u_s_market_for) has announced the addition of the "U.S. Market for Wound and Tissue Management 2014" report to their offering. The U.S market for wound and tissue management was driven by the introduction of newly FDA-approved products, and by demand due to the aging population, and increasing rates of both obesity and diabetes. The advanced wound dressings segment exhibited the highest growth in 2013. This growth will be due to the rising popularity of foam dressings, antimicrobial dressings and the influx of competitors and innovative products in the interactive dressing market. The reimbursement changes in 2014 will potentially have a negative impact on the growth of the interactive dressing market. Growth in the negative pressure wound therapy market was significantly affected by the competitive bidding process. This market is expected to rebound and post growth in the high single-digits over the forecast period. Growth will be supplemented by improved reimbursement rates for single use negative pressure wound therapy pumps and an increase in the number of competitors. Report Highlights: - Introduction of newly FDA-approved products - Reimbursement change effects on the market - Mainstay products in the wound closure market, such as sutures - Improved advanced wound closure devices, such as cyanoacrylate-based tissue adhesives - DME competitive bidding proccess effects on various markets Key Topics Covered: 1.
