Abstract
This report details the complete range of sealants & glues technologies used
in traumatic, surgical and other wound closure, from tapes, sutures and
staples to hemostats, fibrin sealants/glues and medical adhesives. The report
examines the clinical and technology developments underlying this huge and
rapidly growing worldwide market, with data on products in development and on
the market; market size and forecast; competitor market shares; competitor
profiles; and market opportunity.
This report is a market and technology assessment and forecast of products in
wound closure. The report details the current and emerging products,
technologies and markets involved in wound closure and sealing using sutures
and staples, tapes, hemostats, fibrin and sealant products and medical
adhesives. The report provides a worldwide current and annual forecast to 2011
of the markets for these technologies, with particular emphasis on the market
impact of new technologies through the coming decade. The report provides
specific forecasts and shares of the worldwide market by segment for the U.S.,
Europe (United Kingdom, German, France, Italy, BeNeLux), Latin America, Japan
and Rest of World.
The report provides background data on the surgical, disease and traumatic
wound patient populations targeted by current technologies and those under
development, and the current clinical practices in the management of these
patients, including the dynamics among the various clinical specialties or
subspecialties vying for patient population and facilitating or limiting the
growth of technologies.
The report establishes the current worldwide market size for major technology
segments as a baseline for and projecting growth in the market over a ten-year
forecast. The report also assesses and projects the composition of the market
as technologies gain or lose relative market performance over this period.
