The knotless barbed suture is a monofilament suture specifically designed with barbs. It is a new kind of suture designed for use in both skin and deeper structures. The suture is orientated in the opposite direction to the needle. Post-injury, knotless sutures hold tissues together and enhance the natural process of healing. They are commonly used on the skin, internal tissues, organs and blood vessels.

Overall, the technological advancements in sutures is likely to boost the market in the coming years.

Sales Analysis of USA Knotless Surgical Sutures Market from 2015 to 2022 Vs Market Outlook for 2023 to 2033

Sales of the knotless surgical sutures market in the USA grew at a CAGR of 2.3% from 2015 to 2022. The USA knotless surgical sutures market contributes around 37.7% revenue share to the global knotless surgical sutures market in 2022, which was valued at USD 465.6 Million.

The surgical suture industry has seen some significant advances in technology in recent years. The use of synthetic materials with outstanding tissue-holding capabilities and lower risk of infection and scarring, suture coatings, braiding technologies, barbed sutures, and novel specialised sutures that are in development are some of the breakthroughs in surgical sutures.

Triclosan-coated polyglactin 910 (Vicryl Plus Antibacterial: Ethicon) has been reported to reduce the prevalence of surgical site infections by 30%. These sutures were discovered to have similar handling and tension forces to those of common suture materials. Despite being relatively non-toxic, triclosan has been known to cause skin rashes and allergic reactions.

  • The largest range of antibacterial sutures in the world was introduced by Dolphin Sutures on July 13, 2022. The R&D team coordinated at Dolphin Sutures and worked hard to create a broad range of antibacterial sutures with a focus on patient safety and giving surgeons confidence in a variety of clinical environments.Considering this, FMI expects the USA knotless surgical sutures market to grow at a CAGR of 3.6% through the forecasted years.

What are the Key Opportunities in the USA Knotless Surgical Sutures Market?

The increasing aging population and rising incidence of traffic accidents, trauma, burns, cosmetic, orthopedic, cardiovascular, and other surgical procedures offer significant market potential for surgical sutures.

  • Road traffic crashes, which are the leading cause of injury deaths and the 10th leading cause of all deaths worldwide, now account for a surprising proportion of the USA burden of disease. An estimated 1.2 million people are killed in road traffic crashes each year, and more than 50 million are injured, occupying 30 to 70 percent of hospital beds in non-industrialized countries.

Accidents can result in significant tissue damage, requiring reconstructive surgeries to restore the affected area's form and function. Knotless surgical sutures play a role in reconstructive procedures by providing precise and secure wound closure, which is essential for successful outcomes. The rise in accident cases can lead to an increased demand for reconstructive surgeries, indirectly driving the demand for knotless surgical sutures.

Which Factors Could Possibly Restrain the Growth of the USA Knotless Surgical Sutures Market?

The market for surgical sutures is anticipated to see certain growth restraints due to the rising adoption of substitute wound closure techniques including skin adhesives and tissue sealants. Manufacturers in the USA market for knotless surgical sutures compete with domestic and international businesses across all of their product lines.

When compared to suturing, a lengthy wound can be stapled in 25–50% less time. If used properly, staples can help reduce tissue stress. Staples are very strong and are excellent for closing wounds that are under significant tension. Staples are also generally painless to remove and offer great wound reversal.

The development of surgical adhesives and sealants has provided an alternative method of wound closure in certain surgical procedures. These products can be used in place of traditional sutures, including knotless surgical sutures, to achieve wound closure. The use of surgical adhesives and sealants may reduce the demand for knotless sutures in specific surgical applications.

Why Absorbable Surgical Sutures Is Largely an Adopted Product Option for Knotless Surgical Sutures?

The absorbable surgical sutures segment held the major chunk of 61.0% of the USA market by the end of 2022.

Absorbable sutures can break down naturally over the time, within the body itself. They eliminate the need for suture removal, which can be beneficial for patients and reduce the risk of complications associated with suture removal procedures.

Absorbable sutures are commonly used for internal tissues that heal relatively quickly or in areas that are difficult to access for suture removal.

Which Raw Material Is Mostly Adopted in the USA Knotless Surgical Sutures Market?

Polyglactin absorbable surgical sutures were the predominant segment with a market share of 22.4% in the USA market by the end of 2022.

Polyglactin sutures offer adequate tensile strength, allowing them to hold tissues together during the critical healing period. The sutures maintain their strength for a sufficient duration, providing support until the wound heals. Polyglactin sutures are biodegradable, meaning they break down into biocompatible byproducts that can be metabolized and eliminated by the body. This property eliminates the need for suture removal procedures.

As it is the mostly used raw material, it holds significant market share in the USA market.

By Source Which Segment Showed Significant Shares In The USA Market In 2022?

The synthetic source segment is accounted for a revenue share of 51.3% in the USA market at the end of 2022.

Synthetic knotless sutures often utilize innovative anchoring mechanisms or self-locking technology to secure the suture in place without the need for knots. These mechanisms can provide reliable and secure closure, minimizing the risk of suture slippage or failure.

  • In April 2021, Dolphin Sutures introduced the non-absorbable sutures made of Polytetrafluoroethylene in India. The product launch in India will help expand its dental product line for the first time.

Which Application Dominates the USA Market in 2022?

The cardiovascular procedures segment accounted for a revenue share of 32.2% in the USA market at the end of 2022.

In cardiac surgery, it is possible to close the right atrium cannulation site with knotless barbed sutures and an extra self-locking technique without any immediate or long-term consequences. This creates opportunities for minimally invasive heart surgery employing knotless barbed sutures. This work demonstrates that barbed knotless sutures effectively close a low-pressure heart structure, which could speed up minimally invasive surgery.

  • According to the Lifespan Health System, Heart disease is one of the prominent cause leading to death for men and women in the United States. In 2018, there were about 500,000 open heart surgeries performed each year.

Which End User Dominates the Global Market in 2022?

The hospital laboratories accounted for a revenue share of 34.9% in the USA market at the end of 2022.

Hospital laboratories plays a role in evaluating the performance and characteristics of various sutures, including knotless sutures, through testing and research. They might assess factors such as suture strength, biocompatibility, and tissue response. These evaluations can contribute to the understanding and selection of appropriate sutures for surgical procedures.

Competitive Landscape

Among the primary approaches used by organizations to get a competitive edge in the market are new launches, technical advancements, and regulatory compliance, acquisition and distribution agreements with other businesses to expand their business.

For instance:

  • The largest range of antimicrobial sutures in the world was introduced by Dolphin Sutures in July 2022. The project's main goals are to improve patient safety and give surgeons more assurance in a range of clinical situations.
  • According to a contract signed in July 2018, CP Medical will market and distribute B. Braun's veterinary infusion therapy product range as well as a few of its wound therapy products in the USA and Canada.
