According to FutureWise analysis, the market for adhesion barriers is to reach USD 1.1 billion by 2027, and is projected to expand at a CAGR of 7.1% from 2023-2031.
The factors resulting in stimulating the adhesion barriers market size are increasing age-related chronic diseases and rising geriatric population. Increasing cases of sport-related injuries and surgical procedures are also complementing the adhesion barriers market growth. Adhesive barriers are the sole solution for post-surgical adhesions, thus propelling market growth. Rising cases of cancer and gynaecological disorders are recognized as adhesion barriers in market trends. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), around 8.2 million die each year from cancer. The increasing numbers are positively influencing the market.
The market is segmented based on product, application, formulation, and region. In terms of product, synthetic adhesion is expected to hold a major adhesion barriers market share. Synthetic adhesion has multiple benefits such as bioresorbable property, high biocompatibility, and cost-effectiveness. Synthetic adhesion eliminates the need for additional surgery for the removal of the implant. All these factors have increased the adhesion barriers in market size.
On the basis of application, cardiovascular surgeries are expected to increase the adhesion barriers in market size. Factors such as rising ageing population and increasing prevalence of cardiovascular are positively influencing the market. The gynaecological segment is also expected to achieve high market growth owing to growing cases of pelvic cancer. Rising prevalence of conditions such as incontinence and infertility is also driving the growth of the gynaecological segment, thus escalating the adhesion barriers market growth.
In terms of formulation, film formulations are expected to control the growth of the market. The presence of various clinical evidence supporting the safety of the formulations alongside increasing preference towards film by surgeons is fueling the growth of the market.
Based on regions, North America is the global leader of the market. A rising number of soft-tissue injuries and increasing geriatric population remain key factors boosting the market growth in the region. Increasing government healthcare expenditure, the presence of established healthcare infrastructure and increasing surgical procedures are also positively influencing the market in the region. Asia-Pacific region is also expected to show notable growth owing to growing awareness about adhesions coupled with increasing healthcare expenditure is propelling the market in the region. Rapidly increasing medical tourism in developing economies like China, Japan and India are also expected to increase the adhesion barriers market share.
