Market Trends of Global Extracellular Matrix Patches Industry
This section covers the major market trends shaping the Extracellular Matrix Patches Market according to our research experts:
The Cardiac Repair Segment is Expected to Have the Significant Market Share Over the Forecast Period
The cardiac repair segment is expected to hold a significant share in the market over the forecast period, owing to factors such as the number of cardiovascular diseases, the launch of new products, and research studies that are driving the growth of the market segment. For instance, according to the British Heart Foundation, United Kingdom Factsheet, released in August 2022, more than 7.6 million people were living in the United Kingdom in 2021 with some kind of heart and circulatory disease. It also reported that of the 7.6 million, 4 million are males and 3.6 million are females. Such a high burden of cardiovascular diseases in different countries around the world creates the need for ECM for cardiac repair and is thus expected to drive the growth of the market segment.
Additionally, the increasing focus of market players on research studies for the development of cardiac repair products is also expected to boost the growth of the segment. For instance, in September 2021, Terumo Corporation launched a global surgical graft study known as PANTHER, which is a prospective and retrospective study of a comprehensive range of knitted and woven surgical grafts and cardiovascular patches. The positive results from such studies are expected to lead to the development of more effective products in the future, which is expected to drive the growth of the market segment.
Furthermore, approval from the regulatory authority is also expected to boost the growth of the market segment. For instance, in June 2021, Axio Biosolutions received the United States Food and Drug Administration's clearance of its product Axiostat Patch, which helps in the control of moderate to severe bleeding in vascular procedures. Such launches also propel the growth of the market segment.
Thus, owing to the abovementioned factors, the market segment is expected to project growth of the market over the forecast period.
North America is Expected to Have the Significant Market Share Over the Forecast Period
North America is expected to witness a significant share of the market growth over the forecast period. The factors propelling the growth of the market are the increasing incidence of cardiovascular diseases and defects; sports injuries; trauma cases; growing research and development expenditure, and increasing incidences of hernia disorders.
According to the Administration for Community Living report 2020, the number of Americans aged 65 and above was 16.9% of the total population in 2020, and it is estimated to about double to 94.7 million by 2060, and the 65-and-older age group's share of the total population will rise from 16% to 21.6% in the United States. As the geriatric population is more prone to cardiovascular disease, it is expected to boost the growth of the market as extracellular matrix (ECM) plays an important role in cardiac regeneration and repair after cardiac injury.
The launch of products by the market players is also expected to drive the growth of the market. For instance, in November 2021, Sanara MedTech Inc. launched two innovative extracellular matrix products, FORTIFY TRG, a tissue repair graft, and FORTIFY FLOWABLE Extracellular Matrix, from Cook Biotech Inc. in the United States. Such product launches propel the growth of the market.
Thus, owing to the aforementioned factors, the market is expected to show significant growth in the North American region over the forecast period.
