Adhesion Barriers Market Size, Share, Growth, Trends, Consumption, Revenue, Company Analysis, Regional Insights and Forecast 2021-2028

The global adhesion barriers market size is projected to surpass around US$ 2.3 billion by 2028 and projected to expand at a CAGR of 7.3% during the forecast period 2021 to 2028.

The high probability of the development of post-operative adhesion and significant rise in the adoption of adhesion barrier products among surgeons across the globe in the past few years are projected to boost the growth of the global adhesion barriers market during the forecast period.

Adhesion barriers are medical implants used to prevent the formation of scarring or adhesion between tissues and organs following surgical procedures. Adhesion is formed between tissues and organs as the healing procedure begins after surgery. Adhesion could lead to severe medical complications such as post-surgical morbidity, chronic pelvic pain, bowel obstruction, and chronic abdominal pain. It is most commonly and frequently caused after abdominal and gynecological surgery. Around 93% patients who undergo laparotomy surgical procedures develop adhesion. Several studies have indicated that, between 50% and 90% women undergoing gynecological surgery tend to develop post-operative intra-abdominal adhesion. In order to effectively deal with post-operative adhesion, several adhesion barriers have been developed during the past few years. The most commonly used adhesion barrier products include ADEPT, Gynecare Interceed, and Seprafilm. These are available in different formulations such as liquid, gel, and film.

A Key Driver

  • Adhesion barriers are used to reduce abnormal internal damage after a surgery by separating the internal organs and tissues.
  • These barriers are used in abdominal, cardiovascular, gynecological, orthopedic, urological, and reconstructive surgeries. More than 90% of patients who undergo abdominal surgery, especially laparotomy, tend to develop abdominal adhesion.
  • Furthermore, a small number of patients who undergo laparoscopic surgery tend to develop abdominal adhesion. Indications for laparotomy commonly include gastrointestinal malignancy, benign small bowel disorders, complicated appendectomy, hysterectomy, and ectopic pregnancy. Around 10% of those with no history of abdominal surgery also develop abdominal adhesion.
  • Surge in the adoption of adhesion barrier products, increase in partnerships and collaborations to enhance product availability, and rise in the prevalence of gynecological disorders across the globe are anticipated to boost the global adhesion barriers market during the forecast period.

Shifting Focus on Developing Countries in APAC: A Winning Imperative

With the healthcare industry in developed regions, such as North America and Europe, has been riding on the coattails of technological advancements, it is pushing the need for adhesion barriers with higher efficacy in these regions. In 2018, North America accounted for one-third revenue share of the global market for adhesion barriers. However, the burgeoning growth of healthcare and advancements in technologies recorded in developing regions is expected to trigger a significant shift in the business strategies of leading players in this landscape.

The healthcare industry in APAC has been undergoing a conspicuous transformation, especially in high-income developing countries in the region. The region facing a burden of the increasing prevalence of lifestyle diseases, which is expected to increase with the rise of the geriatric population. Thereby, the demand for adhesion barriers is expected to surge with the rise of unmet needs in surgical therapeutics of healthcare organizations in APAC, and this will direct the upcoming strategies of stakeholders in the adhesion barriers landscape.

4DryField PH to be Highly Attractive

The report offers detailed segmentation of the global adhesion barriers market based on product, application, formulation, and end user.

High Number of Gynecological Surgeries and Neurosurgeries to Propel Market

In terms of application, the global adhesion barriers market has been segregated into gynecological surgeries, abdominal surgeries, and neuro & orthopedic surgeries. The abdominal surgeries segment dominated the global adhesion barriers market in 2018. A large share of the segment can be ascribed to the high number of abdominal surgeries in highly populated countries such as India and China, increase in awareness about surgical adhesions in the region, and high adoption of abdominal adhesion prevention products in Japan. However, the neuro & orthopedic surgeries segment is projected to expand at a high CAGR of ~ 9% during the forecast period, due to an increase in the number of neurosurgeries across the globe. For instance, a study published in the Journal of Neurosurgery (2018) concluded that, 1,756,891 patients require neurosurgical operations in Europe. The gynecological surgeries segment is likely to be a highly lucrative segment of the adhesion barriers market during the forecast period, owing to the rise in adhesion-related gynecological surgeries across the world. According to research studies, the adhesion rate for gynecological and C-section surgeries stands at around 94%, while that for adhesiolysis and gastrointestinal surgeries ranges from 65% to 75%.

Film Formulation to Account for a Prominent Share

In terms of formulation, the film segment is expected to dominate the global adhesion barriers market during the forecast period. Increase in the sales of film-based products is anticipated to drive segments such as Seprafilm and Gynecare Interceed, as these are widely used for abdominal and gynecological surgeries. The liquid segment is estimated to expand at a high CAGR during the forecast period, due to an increase in the adoption and usage of ADEPT adhesion barrier solutions across the globe.

Hospitals - Prominent End User

Based on end user, the hospitals segment is estimated to constitute a dominant share of the global adhesion barriers market from 2021 to 2028.
