MEA Negative Pressure Wound Therapy Market

MEA Negative Pressure Wound Therapy Market Size (2023 to 2028)

The size of the Middle East and Africa negative pressure wound therapy market is estimated to grow at a 4.42% CAGR during the forecast period and be worth USD 150 million by 2028.

The growing number of surgical procedures and rising incidence of chronic wounds are majorly driving the negative pressure wound therapy market in MEA. C-section surgeries are increasing due to the increasing birth rate. To reduce complications in an expected delivery, healthcare providers prefer to have c-section surgery which may result in surgical wounds after the surgery. These wounds can be healed quickly by using negative pressure wound therapy, which is expected to propel the NPWT market growth in MEA.

In addition, the rising prevalence of burns owing to the increasing number of fire incidents in the kitchen and workplace is anticipated to boost the demand for the negative pressure wound therapy market in the MEA region. The growing adoption of technological developments of advanced negative pressure wound therapies is estimated to promote the growth of the NPWT market in the MEA. Developing single-use negative pressure wound therapy devices and increasing portable NPWT devices by many key players fuels the regional market growth. Disabled and older people prefer a home setting for negative pressure therapy for wounds, which feels comfortable and helps fast healing.

Furthermore, the growing number of people who have diabetes in the MEA region owing to changes in lifestyle is expected to favor the NPWT market in the MEA region. An estimated 73 million adults have diabetes in the countries of the Middle East and African countries. A diabetic foot ulcer is the most common chronic wound among the diabetic population. Due to changes in the glucose level in the body, the wound may fester in multiple areas and leads to ulcer in most diabetic's people, and sometimes it leads to needing to cut off the leg or even death. As a result, these diabetic people prefer negative pressure wound therapy, which provides external pressure to remove the excess liquid in the wound and helps reduce pain and inflammation.

However, the high costs of advanced negative pressure wound therapy, lack of awareness among the population, lack of skilled professionals, and lack of proper infrastructure are expected to showcase a negative impact on the negative pressure wound therapy market in the Middle East and African region.
