Overview:

Digital wound measurement devices are 3D enabled or laser assisted devices used for the measurement of dimensions such as length, width and depth of the wound. These devices play an important role in documentation of progression and regression of wounds by accurate and repeatable measurement of wound size over the course of the healing process. As the prevalence of diabetes continues to rise and the treatment standards for wound management tend to progress, more number of clinicians are relying on technological advancements in wound measurement techniques to keep track on progress of the treatment, thus driving the digital wound management devices market.

According to the International Diabetes Federation (IDF), approximately 415 million adults were living with the burden of diabetes in 2016, which is projected to reach 642 million by the year 2040. Such sharp rise in the incidence of obesity and diabetes, leading to an increase in chronic and acute conditions like pressure ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, venous ulcer etc., would fuel the market for digital wound measurement devices globally.

On the basis of device types, the digital wound measurement devices market is segmented into 3D wound measurement devices and laser-assisted wound measurement devices. 3D wound measurement devices held the largest share due to its more consistent and faster measurement, which is critical for clinical application and use. Moreover, development of 3D enabled wound measurement devices is the latest trend that has been observed by the players operating in the market. Geographically, North America held the largest share in the global digital wound measurement devices market due to acceptance of technologically advanced devices and rising cases of chronic wounds and diabetes in the region. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), it is estimated that chronic wounds affects around 2% of the population in the U.S. i.e. 5.7 million patients, and the estimated cost to the health care system exceeds US$20 billion per year. Asia Pacific is expected to witness fastest growth in the global digital wound measurement devices market owing to rising diabetic and geriatric population in the region. Growing healthcare infrastructure, healthcare costs and government investments would drive the digital wound measurement devices market in the region.
