Dissolvable sutures market is expected to gain prominence over the forecast period (2023-2030). It is estimated that the dissolvable sutures market is expected to grow USD 4.82 Billion at a CAGR ~6.40 % during the forecast period of 2023–2030.
Dissolvable sutures are stitches that doctors and surgeons, use to hold skin, internal organs, blood vessels, and all other tissues of the human body together, after the injury, incision, or surgery. These sutures have an anticipated advantage as they are broken down in the body tissue after a given period, and no foreign material left inside the patient's body.
The market growth is attributed to the increasing aging population, rising occurrence of chronic diseases, increasing healthcare expenditure, growing number of surgeries and burns, and increasing number of hospitals. According to the WHO, an estimate of tens of million people are injured or disabled worldwide every year in road accidents. Additionally, immense technological advancements in material science and increasing occurrences of musculoskeletal diseases are likely to boost the market growth during the forecast period.
Despite the drivers, the development of advanced wound care dressings and availability of alternatives such as surgical staplers and complications such as hemorrhage and leakage, especially in esophageal and colonic anastomosis are a few factors restraining the growth of the dissolvable sutures market. Furthermore, stringent government regulations and increasing preference for minimally invasive surgical procedures are the constraints limiting the market growth.
