Pressure Ulcer Devices Introduction

Pressure ulcers can be perceived as soft tissues or skin injuries that develop because of the long-drawn-out pressure exerted over particular spheres of the body. The patients developing pressure ulcers should obtain immediate treatment; or else, complexities related to these injuries can prove to be fatal. The foundation of pressure ulcer treatment is to cut off the pressure exerted at the area of the wound. Other than that, the treatment alternatives vary in accordance with the grade/stage of the pressure ulcer. This activity comprises the pathophysiology, etiology, and histopathology of the pressure ulcers, as well as drawing attention to assessment and treatment options on the basis of an interprofessional approach, so that outcomes and patient care are ideal. In addition to that, pressure relieving devices such as mattresses, beds, splints, heel troughs, and pillows are also utilized as part of the treatment in order to cut off or alleviate the pressure on the ulcer.

Pressure Ulcer Devices Market Dynamics

One of the major factors that is primarily driving the demand of pressure ulcer devices across the market is the rapid rise in prevalence of pressure ulcers among people owing to several reasons. In accordance to the Agency for Healthcare Research & Quality (AHRQ), more than 2.5 million individuals in the United States develop pressure ulcers every year. Some of the basic reasons for the swift development of pressure ulcers are increasing geriatric population, as well as growing incidence of chronic medical conditions among the population. Attributing to which, the global pressure ulcer devices market is projected to witness significant growth over the years.

Based on the rapidly growing prevalence of pressure ulcers, worldwide, the medicine industry is also starting to roll out numerous technological upgrades along with various product innovations and launches in order to withstand growing complications of bedsores. However, high cost of medical devices and treatment of pressure ulcers as well as unfavorable reimbursement scenarios may hold back the growth of the global pressure ulcer devices market in the near future. As per the studies, pressure ulcers are worth $9.1-$11.6 billion per year in the United States. Nevertheless, the advent of newer alternatives for wound assessment and care is still estimated to offer major breakthroughs to the market growth of pressure ulcer devices over the forecast period
