Global Surgical Sutures Market Report and Forecast 2023-2031
Abstract Global Surgical Sutures Market Report and Forecast 2023-2031 Global Surgical Sutures Market Outlook The global surgical sutures market value was USD 4 billion in 2022, driven by the increasing number of surgical procedures across the globe. The market size is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 6% during the forecast period of 2023-2031 to achieve a value of USD 6.8 billion by 2031.
Surgical Sutures Introduction Surgical sutures, also known as stitches, are medical devices used to close wounds or surgical incisions by holding tissues together until the healing process is complete. They are commonly made from materials such as natural fibres (e.g., silk or catgut) or synthetic materials (e.g., polypropylene or nylon) and are available in various types, such as absorbable or non-absorbable sutures, and different thread sizes and needle shapes. The choice of suture depends on factors such as the type of tissue, the desired healing time, and the surgeon's preference. Surgical Sutures Market Scenario The global surgical sutures market has experienced significant growth in recent years, driven by factors such as the increasing number of surgical procedures, an aging global population, and advancements in suture materials and technologies. Furthermore, the growing demand for minimally invasive surgical procedures and rising awareness about the importance of proper wound management have contributed to the market's expansion. North America: The largest market for surgical sutures, driven by factors such as the advanced healthcare infrastructure, a high number of surgical procedures, and the presence of major surgical suture manufacturers. Europe: The second-largest market, with increasing demand for surgical sutures due to a growing aging population and a supportive regulatory framework. Asia-Pacific: Expected to witness the highest growth rate due to factors such as a rapidly aging population, increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, and growing investments in healthcare infrastructure.
