Market Dynamics: Drivers & Restraints

Increasing prevalence of diabetes cases

Diabetes mellitus is a global health issue affecting millions of people worldwide. According to the National Institute of Health, it was estimated that 17.1% of adults in Saudi Arabia had diabetes in 2022. The percentage jumped from 2.1% to 7% from 1980.

Most diabetes cases lead to foot ulcers and other foot complications that need to be healed on a day-to-day basis. As diabetes has no cure, maintaining blood sugar levels and wound dressing plays a vital role in preventing leg amputations in most cases. If the wound is left without any care, it soon leads to the amputation of a part of the leg or the entire leg.

Saudi Arabia has changed in past years with modernization and urbanization which led to an increase in the consumption of processed food which has led to a rise in diabetes cases. Lifestyle change also led to an increase in cardiovascular diseases including diabetes, obesity, and other co-morbidities.

Complications with certain wound dressings

Wound dressing should hold the place because excessive moisture absorption can cause the wound to dry out. Foam dressing macerate the wound area if left for too long. Hydrocolloid dressing can lead to tissue damage where there is friction. During the removal of the dressing, there is a chance of losing healthy tissue around the wound during removal. Some of the adhesive tissue bandages don't allow wounds to heal naturally causing blisters in the surrounding area making it worse.
