Main Reasons Why Medical Professionals Refrain from Using Advanced Wound Dressings

Though advanced wound dressings have their own advantages over traditional dressing methods, medical professionals do face certain challenges, which is affecting the market negatively:

• One of the major challenges surgeons face while dressing a serious wound is the management of the mass of cells and fluid that seeps out from it. Advanced wound dressings, on some levels, fail to achieve this, significantly hampering its adoption.
• Poor infrastructure or negligence by the public, as well as private healthcare entities, results in the unavailability of either equipment or skilled healthcare professionals required for advanced wound dressings. This is probably seen in the case of underdeveloped countries.
• These treatments, in the long run, also are considered to put a heavy toll on patients’ pockets, which keeps a major chunk of the socioeconomically marginalized population away from the market.
• Healthcare professionals, compatible with the conventional dressing methods also find it difficult to make a shift toward modern methodologies, contributing to the negative growth rate of this market.
