Adhesion Barriers Market Fundamentals
An adhesion barrier is a medical implant that can be used to reduce abnormal internal scarring caused by tissue adhesions after some surgery by separating internal tissues and organs while they heal. Due to surgical trauma-induced ischemia and inflammation, intra-abdominal surgery might result in significant postoperative consequences, such as pelvic adhesion, postoperative ileus, and severe discomfort. As a result, fibrin persistence may manifest as bands, impacting the peritoneal surfaces on the opposite side. According to a second-look laparoscopic assessment, about 50% to 100% of pelvic adhesions form within the first few weeks of surgery. Subfertility, prolonged abdominal pain, and dyspareunia can all lead to adhesions. As a result, their formation must be minimized to prevent future incidents. Laparoscopy minimizes peritoneal damage and de novo adhesion formation compared to open surgery. Yet, it may produce peritoneal inflammation due to pneumoperitoneum pressure duration and heat burns. As a result, the usage of an antiadhesive barrier has become widespread.
Pelvic adhesion following gynecologic surgery can result in pelvic pain, gastrointestinal upset, or infertility, which lowers the quality of life. As a result, prevention is required. Many antiadhesive barriers can be utilized during gynecologic procedures, notwithstanding how complex the surgical techniques are. In theory, inert physical barriers can be used to keep the serosal surface away from the trauma location for more than 3 days, preventing adhesion formation.

As the pandemic subsides, the market under consideration is likely to expand significantly over the projection period. Increased surgeries, sports-related injuries, and greater knowledge about the medical implications of adhesions are driving market expansion. An estimated 32,938 completed heart surgeries and other heart procedures were conducted in England in October 2021, according to data published by the British Heart Foundation in December 2021. Since operations and surgeries require adhesion prevention to prevent scars and post-op complications, the usage of adhesion barriers is projected to increase. As a result, the market is predicted to rise during the forecast period.
Healthcare in low-income countries is rapidly changing. These expanding populations in these countries will certainly raise the demand for medical devices. The rising disease load and innovative medical therapies accounted for approximately two-thirds of the increase in cost. Healthcare spending in emerging nations is predicted to rise during the projection period. According to data published by the Office for National Statistics in May 2022, the predicted total healthcare expenditure in 2021 was GBP 277 billion (US$ 373.4 billion), an increase of 7.4% over the previous year’s spending. Certain investments in the healthcare industry provide appealing long-term financial returns. Medical care is where people’s spending tends to rise as their income rises. As a result, adopting advanced technologies, such as adhesion barriers for surgeries, is likely to rise with rising healthcare costs. Therefore, the studied market is predicted to expand during the forecast period.
The rising prevalence of neurological, gynecological, ophthalmic, and cardiac disorders has further fueled market expansion. According to the British Heart Association, 7.4 million people are affected by circulatory and cardiac illnesses. In 2019, heart and circulatory illnesses accounted for over 27% of all deaths in the United Kingdom. The need for surgical treatments to address these illnesses has led to an increase in demand for adhesion barriers.
Adhesion Barriers Market Ecosystem
The global adhesion barriers market is analyzed from four perspectives: product, formulation, application, and region.
Adhesion Barriers Market by Product
[967686]
Based on product, the global adhesion barriers market has been segmented into synthetic & natural adhesion barriers. The synthetic adhesion barriers are sub-segmented into hyaluronic acid, regenerated cellulose, polyethylene glycol, and others. The natural adhesion barriers are also sub-segmented into collagen & protein and fibrin.
The synthetic adhesion barriers segment is likely to dominate the market during the forecast period due to its great bioresorbability and biocompatibility. The segment’s sales are predicted to rise due to the low cost of synthetic adhesion barriers. The widespread availability and favorable affordability of commercial synthetic adhesion barriers contribute to the segment’s dominance.
The natural adhesion barriers segment accounted for a significant revenue share of the market and is predicted to increase profitably throughout the forecast period. Due to benefits such as durability and safety, the collagen and protein segment maintained the largest market revenue share. Throughout the projection period, the fibrin segment is expected to increase rapidly due to the increased acceptance of these products.
Adhesion Barriers Market by Formulation
Based on formulation, the global adhesion barriers market has been segmented into film/mesh, gel, and liquid.
The film/mesh segment is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period. The segment’s substantial share is primarily due to the low cost and rise in the usage of film form adhesion in various operations. Furthermore, various pieces of clinical data support the efficacy and safety of these adhesion forms, contributing to market expansion.
The gel segment is expected to register growth at the fastest revenue CAGR throughout the projected period due to benefits, such as affordability, resorb ability, ease of administration, and safety. Furthermore, the growing usage of gels in procedures, such as tendons, carpal tunnel, and joint or peripheral surgery, is projected to expand in the coming years.
Adhesion Barriers Market by Application
Based on application, the global adhesion barriers market has been segmented into general/abdominal surgeries, gynecological surgeries, cardiovascular surgeries, orthopedic surgeries, and neurological surgeries.
The gynecological surgeries segment is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period. Adhesion disease is a leading cause of morbidity in postoperative patients. In gynecological surgery, adhesion barriers have been shown to minimize adhesion-related problems. In open surgery, adhesion barriers are cost-effective in reducing adhesion-related complications. According to WHO data from June 2021, Cesarean section procedures are steadily increasing globally, accounting for more than one-fifth (21%) of all childbirths. Furthermore, numerous countries are seeing increased surgical procedures due to the rise in the burden of non-communicable diseases and traumas. Likewise, as per the data provided by the CDC in July 2022, the Cesarean delivery rate jumped to 32.1% in the United States in 2021. Cesarean section is a type of abdominal surgery that necessitates the use of adhesion barriers. Additionally, adhesion formation after gynecologic procedures is widespread and highly problematic, according to research published in the Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology in August 2021. As it directly creates problems and makes subsequent surgeries more difficult. Adhesion barriers have proven to be safe and helpful in resolving this problem. Adhesion barriers help considerably reduce adhesion’s extent and severity compared to untreated control.
Adhesion Barriers Market by Region
