Basic Wound Care Segment Holds leading Edge over the Other Categories
The global wound dressings market is mainly classified under wound type and region. Under type, traditional wound dressings and advanced wound dressings are two sub-categories, which are further divided into individual segments.

Whereas, advanced wound dressings category consists of foams, films, hydrocolloids, hydrogels, hydrofiber, alginates, and collagen, are chief segments comprising the global wound dressings market.
Considering the category of type, basic wound care segment had gained maximum market revenue as a part of the traditional wound dressings segment in 2013. This was mainly due to prevalence of small injuries among people, wherein minimal dressings is mainly required. Owing to this, the sales of cotton dressings and sterile cotton dramatically increased, mainly in developing nations. This segment is expected to maintain its leading stance even during the next few years.
However, a drastic increase in large injuries caused in people owing to various reasons such as vehicular accidents, injuries caused while participating in adventure sports, and war, is mainly leading to a rise in the need of wound closure products. Owing to such a need of the wound closure products, the wound closure products segment has witnessed remarkable growth.
North America and Asia Pacific Remain Dominant in the Market
