Global Surgical Sutures Market 2023-2030

Global Surgical Sutures Market 2023-2030



Global Surgical Sutures Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report by Product Type (Absorbable Sutures, and Non-absorbable Sutures), by Application (Ophthalmic Surgery, Cardiovascular Surgery, Orthopedic Surgery, Neurology Surgery, and Others), and by End User (Hospitals and Clinics, Ambulatory Surgical Centers, and Clinics and Physician Offices) Forecast Period (2023-2030)

The global surgical sutures market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 5.8% during the forecast period (2023-2030). Doctors use sutures to treat wounds and lacerations. The market’s growth is attributed to growing demand for technological advancements such as suture anchor system, and citregenTM. Suture anchor systems are employed during orthopedic and soft tissue procedures, especially when a secure and reliable bond amongst the soft tissue and the bone is required. Complications such as suture pull-through or failure can occur when attaching soft tissues to bone using the conventional technique. Accordingly market players are coming up with new products to cater the demand for suture anchor system. For instance, in December 2022, Stryker launched a Citrefix™, a suture anchor system for foot and ankle surgical procedures. The new technology involves the utilization of CitregenTM, a highly acclaimed bioresorbable substance created to imitate the composition and structure of natural bone. Citrefix is a resorbable, bio-inspired suture anchor system for disposable sutures.

Segmental Outlook

The global surgical sutures market is segmented on the product type, application, and end user. Based on the product type, the market is sub-segmented into absorbable sutures (natural sutures, synthetic sutures), and non-absorbable sutures (nylon, prolene, and others). Based on the application, the market is sub-segmented into ophthalmic surgery, cardiovascular surgery, orthopedic surgery, neurology surgery, and others. Further, on the basis of end-user, the market is sub-segmented into hospitals and clinics, ambulatory surgical centers, and clinics and physician offices.

The Absorbable Sub-Segment is Anticipated to Hold a Considerable Share of the Global Surgical Sutures Market

Among the product type, the absorbable sub-segment is expected to hold a significant share of the global surgical sutures market. The segmental growth is attributed to growing demand for reduced need for suture removal. Absorbable sutures, additionally known as dissolvable sutures. Absorbable sutures offer a variety of benefits such as, one of that is the fact that they don't need to be removed once the wound has healed, saving time and minimizing patient suffering. This quality makes them especially well-suited for deep tissue closures and interior procedures.

Among these, North America is anticipated to hold a prominent share of the market across the globe, owing to the increase in demand for innovative surgical techniques and equipment, such as biocompatible surgical sutures with antimicrobial coatings.

The Asia-Pacific Region is Expected to Grow at a Significant CAGR in the Global Surgical sutures Market

Among all regions, the Asia-Pacific regions is anticipated to grow at a considerable CAGR over the forecast period. The increasing demand for surgical sutures, that is subsequently fueling the region's growth, is projected to result from the disease's increased incidence among the older population. Coronary bypass surgery, aortic or mitral valve replacement or repair, and aneurysm repair are common cardiovascular procedures. A significant component of surgery is suturing. Stainless steel, polypropylene, and polyester sutures are among the materials utilized for cardiac sutures. According to the First Longitudinal Ageing Study in India (LASI), that was published by the Union Ministry of Family and Health Welfare in January 2020, both out of every three elderly individuals in India have a chronic illness. Almost 70% senior citizens in India have a chronic illness.

Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and hypertension predominate among the chronic health disorders that are prominent among individuals 75 years of age and older. As individuals aged, the proportion of those without morbidity continually fell. It is estimated that 73% of people under the age of 45 are free of morbid conditions, and this percentage drops to 44% among individuals 75 and older. From the age of 60 onward, the decline is, nevertheless, slower.
