Tiny incisions are also developed during robotic and laparoscopic procedures. Whereas, excisional wounds are made for removing the cyst and other kinds of tissue. The objective of wound care post-surgery includes rapid healing of wounds without complication and infection. Medical tapes hold a variety of applications in surgical wound care to secure a dressing or bandage or a wound. The medical tapes are able to deal with a broad range of wound sizes. In certain cases, stitches are not required, hence tape is utilized rather than stitches for wound closure while it heals.Medical tapes and bandages involve fabrics containing anti-microbial properties that support the healing of surgical wounds and prevent surgical site infection.
Further, chronic wounds are a major health concern globally and considered as the key challenge to wound care professionals There are several kinds of chronic wounds, such as diabetic ulcers, vascular ulcers (such as venous and arterial ulcers) and pressure ulcers. According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), chronic wounds affect nearly 6.5 million people in the US. It claims that more than $25 billion is invested annually on chronic wound treatment.To prevent the ulcer from becoming infected, it is essential to use a wound dressing or bandage and keep the ulcer clean.
The use of bandages and dressings is an appropriate medication for wound management. Nonwovens are the ideal material for several wound dressing applications in the healthcare sector. The significant rise of bloodborne diseases, new viruses, strains of drug-resistant bacteria, and other sources of healthcare-acquired infection have made nonwoven materials the vital option for wound dressing fabric and other healthcare applications.Wound dressing fabrics are designed to prevent infection and promote wound healing. Therefore, it is being significantly preferred in hospitals to avoid surgical site infection and chronic wound infection, which in turn, is drives the growth of the global healthcare fabrics market.
Nonwoven wound dressings and bandages can be designed to maintain safe direct contact with the skin. These are potential enough to cover and secure the wound dressing. Certain flexible nonwoven materials and nonwoven medical products used in wound care along with wound dressings comprise bandages, medical tapes, wraps and plasters for making casts, absorbent pads, gauze, and wadding.Non-woven are ideally suited for wound dressing products owing to its absorbent, anti-bacterial, soft, and liquid repellent features. The rising prevalence of such chronic wounds and a growing number of surgeries is increasing the demand for wound dressing fabrics and is driving the global healthcare fabrics industry.
