Formation of adhesions after surgery results in high morbidity. Barriers to prevent adhesion are seldom applied, despite their ability to reduce the severity of adhesion formation. Specifically, after almost every intra-abdominal surgical procedure, these adhesions are a frequently ensuing complication. Bowel obstruction and/or chronic pelvic pain are common complications due to this formation of adhesions. Additionally, adhesions may cause gynaecological problems because of their interference with fertility. The adhesion barriers are made from oxidized regenerated cellulose, sodium hylauronate, expanded polyterafluorethylene, and carboxymethlcellulose. The major applications where the adhesion barriers are used include gynaecological surgery, abdominal surgery, and other surgeries
The Benefits of Adhesion Barrier include:
Increase in the volume of surgeries and sports-related injuries and rising geriatric population in adhesion barrier are some of the major factors driving the adhesion barrier market. Furthermore, increasing awareness about the medical implications of adhesions is also the one of the factor driving the adhesion barrier market. However, reluctance towards the usage of adhesion barriers among surgeonsis one of the major factors hampering growth of the adhesion barrier market globally.
Geographically, the market is segmented into Asia-Pacific, North America, Europe and Rest of World. the North America accounted for the largest market in global adhesion barrier market. The North America is prophesized to accounted for the largest market share owing to the increase in the aging population, increasing number of soft tissue injuries and the consequent growth in the number of surgical procedures and higher government expenditure on healthcare.
The products studied in the report are synthetic adhesion barriers (hyaluronic acid, regenerated cellulose, polyethylene glycol and others), natural adhesion barriers, collagen & protein, fibrin and other. The synthetic adhesion barrier segment accounted for the largest market size owing to high bioresorbable and biocompatibility property. Synthetic adhesion barriers are cost-effective, which is expected to increase sales of the segment
The formulation comprises of film formulations, gel formulations and liquid formulations. The film formulations segment is expected to maintain its dominance during the forecast period. The large share of the segment is primarily attributed to its low cost and increasing use of film form adhesion in various surgeries
Various applications of the market are Gynecological Surgeries, General/Abdominal Surgeries, Orthopedic Surgeries, Cardiovascular Surgeries, Neurological Surgeries, Urological Surgeries, Reconstructive Surgeries and Other. The cardiovascular surgeries segment is anticipated to exhibit the fastest growth rate during the forecast period. The high growth rate of the segment is primarily attributed to the increasing incidence of heart-related disease and rising use of adhesion barriers in cardiovascular surgeries.
The key companies in the adhesion barrier market are Johnson & Johnson, Sanofi, Baxter International, C. R. Bard, Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation, Anika Therapeutics, Atrium Medical Corporation (A Part of Getinge Group), FzioMed, MAST Biosurgery, Innocoll Holdings and Betatech Medical. Foremost companies have invested huge capital in mergers & acquisitions and research & development activities to develop advanced products in the market.
