Industry Dynamics
Growth Drivers
The innovation of technologically advanced products, mounting hospital acquired infection, expanding regulatory guidelines for hospital infection prevention, and mounting number of surgical procedures are the primary growth drivers for surgical site infection prevention market. For instance, according to American Society of Plastic Surgeons in 2015 approximately 15.9 million cosmetic procedures were performed in the U.S., a two percent increase over 2014.
Mounting occurrence of surgical site infection is also driving the growth of the market. For instance, according to World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 11 percent of patients who endure surgery are infected in the procedure in low and middle-income countries.
Mounting initiatives by several organizations, mounting healthcare expenditure and expanding geriatric population are also facilitating the growth for the surgical site infection prevention market. For instance, according to WHO, globally in 2010 approximately 524 million people were aged 65 years and older, and is expected to reach 1.5 billion in 2050.
Challenges
The less preventive methods for nosocomial infections in developing countries, lack of alertness about surgical site infection and lack of alertness of hospital-acquired infection prevention and control are the major challenges for the growth of surgical site infection prevention market.
Industry Ecosystem
Globally, the manufacturing companies trying to enter the surgical site infection prevention market are required to maintain stringent regulatory standards. Moreover, the high level of capital requirement also poses a major barrier for the entry of new players. This offers an edge to the established players in the industry competition.
Antimicrobial products: This includes antimicrobial sutures, dressings, and coatings that are designed to inhibit the growth of bacteria and prevent contamination at the surgical site.
Surgical drapes and gowns: These are sterile barriers used to cover the patient and maintain a sterile field during surgery, reducing the risk of pathogens reaching the incision site.
Preoperative skin preparation: Products such as antiseptic solutions, including chlorhexidine gluconate or povidone-iodine, are used to clean the patient's skin before surgery, reducing the microbial load at the site.
Sterilization and disinfection products: These products ensure that surgical instruments and equipment are properly sterilized or disinfected, minimizing the risk of introducing pathogens during the surgical procedure.
Education and training: Healthcare providers receive training and education on infection prevention protocols, including proper hand hygiene, aseptic techniques, and the use of appropriate protective equipment.
Surveillance and monitoring systems: These systems help track and monitor SSIs to identify trends, implement targeted interventions, and improve overall infection prevention practices.
Geographic Overview
Geographically, North America is the largest surgical site infection prevention market as in the region the number of surgical procedure is increasing. Expanding geriatric population, technological advancement of advanced products are also up surging growth of the North American surgical site infection prevention market. For instance, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, in 2012 approximately 43.1 million people were aged 65 years and older in the U.S. and is expected to reach 83.7 million in 2050.
Asia-Pacific is observed to witness the fastest growth in the market, as the region comprises a large population base. In addition, mounting healthcare expenditure, the mounting number of surgical procedures, expanding the geriatric population, mounting occurrence of surgical site infection, and refining healthcare infrastructure are also creating a positive impact on the surgical site infection prevention market growth in the region.
