Sales of anti-adhesion products are predicted to progress at a high CAGR of 7.5% from 2022 to 2030, says Fact.MR, a market research and competitive intelligence provider.
Adhesions are bands of sticky tissues that bind to the surfaces of internal organs and tissues, obstructing the site where they occur. Adhesions can cause serious medical issues such as intestinal obstruction, persistent discomfort, infertility, and restricted movement.
Furthermore, inflammatory medications such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medicines (NSAIDs), corticosteroids, and calcium channel blockers are recommended, along with surgical techniques such as laparoscopy and precise hemostasis to avoid adhesions. The most efficient method of eliminating adhesions is said to be adhesion barriers, which are anti-adhesion products.
Demand for anti-adhesion products is likely to be fuelled by the increased incidence of surgeries among the world’s population, which are primarily brought on by lifestyle conditions. Chronic pelvic pain, infertility, and intestinal obstruction are usually triggered by adhesions that develop after abdominal surgical procedures.
Many products, in the form of gel, film or fluid, are widely used to halt the development of postoperative adhesions. Due to the increasing need for anti-adhesion solutions, pelvic operations typically results in inevitable tissue injuries, which can cause post-surgical adhesion to form.
Due to the increased demand for anti-adhesion products, target diseases such as cancer, pelvic operations, and C-sections have become much more prevalent.
- The most prevalent illnesses, according to the National Cancer Institute, are endometrial cancer, bladder cancer, renal pelvic cancer, rectum cancer, breast cancer, colon cancer, prostate cancer, melanoma of the skin, and non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
