The digital wound measurement devices market size is increasing rapidly. The market is primarily driven by the increasing prevalence of chronic wounds and diabetic wounds, which are severe, and often the process of healing is very long, eventually leading to amputations. Hence, growing diabetic patients, rising geriatric population, and an increasing number of surgeries are some of the key factors accelerating the market.
According to the report launched by Market Research Future (MRFR), the global digital wound measurement devices market is booming and projected to witness significant growth by 2023, registering a steady CAGR throughout the forecast period (2018-2023). Rising awareness for the benefits of these devices and increasing investments by the public & private sector boost market growth. Moreover, growth in the biotechnology sectors drives the growth of the market exponentially.
Rising government support for the research and development of medical technologies is a key driving force escalating the market growth, increasing the efficacies of digital wound measurement devices. Additionally, factors such as the proliferation of smartphones, rapid adoption of advanced digital tools, and the advent of telehealth for wound care are expected to substantiate the market growth.
On the other hand, the complexity of these devices, due to which they cant provide additional information on wounds such as moistness or exudation, restricts the growth of the market. The high costs of digital devices, alongside the poor reimbursement policies for the medical devices, are estimated to act as significant headwinds for the market growth. Nevertheless, the growing demand for quality wound care would support market growth.
