Sales of sutures, stapling products, hernia meshes, and negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) reached $9.7 billion in 2013. The global market for these wound closure and management devices, as analyzed in LSI's new report, is expected to see important changes through 2018, influenced by critical regional trends in surgical caseloads, purchasing resources, and the state of development with respect to outpatient and post-acute care. Competitive forces and strained financial resources among hospitals will continue to have important effects upon product prices and revenue growth, although the increasing adoption of key products in untapped Asian markets-such as NPWT-will spur revenue growth.
