有粉手术手套市场 – 2024 年至 2029 年预测Powdered Surgical Glove Market - Forecasts from 2024 to 2029 |
有粉手术手套市场将从2024年的186,187,000美元成长到2029年的210,392,000美元,复合年增长率为2.44%
有粉手术手套是医用手套,主要含有粉状玉米粉作为敷料剂,吸收皮肤上的汗水。此类手套用于医疗机构和门诊手术中心,以保护医护人员及其患者在不卫生的环境中免受疾病传播。经济国家微创手术的增加、外科中心的建立以及外科医生健康水平的提高预计将推动市场扩张。
然而,医疗设备和手术工具的发展进步正在为手术手套创造新的可能性。为了最大限度地减少医疗废弃物,人们越来越多地转向永续材料,从而推动了生物分解性和无粉手术手套的开发。食品药物管理局(FDA) 等主要监管机构已禁止使用粉末填充手套。预计这些倡议将阻碍整体市场的成长。
有粉手术手套因其独特的润滑性而形成一道屏障,防止医疗保健专业人员接触任何疾病。这些手套的灵活性使他们能够执行复杂且大多侵入性的手术。全世界慢性病数量的增加增加了此类手术的频率。
例如,根据健康改善与差异办公室的数据,2022 年,英国因白内障手术入院的人数达到 409,000 人,即每 10 万人中有 3,803 人入院。同样,根据欧洲角膜和细胞移植登记处的数据,该地区每年进行超过 30,000 例角膜移植手术。据同一资讯来源称,2022年,欧洲白内障手术总数为271,347例,比2021年报告的手术数量增加了7.3%。
微创手术的增加预计将推动对提供更高保护免受任何疾病污染的手术手套的需求,从而为有粉手术手套市场提供新的成长前景。
手术手套是必不可少的手术工具,因为它们建立了一道屏障,在患者手术过程中为医生和外科医生提供卫生保护。医疗基础设施的改善和对新设施的投资,以增强外科医生和其他医护人员的身体素质,为有粉手术手套市场需求创造了新的可能性。
根据国际美容与整形整形外科学会发布的《2023年世界美容整形外科调查》报告,土耳其整形外科医师的身体素质提高了23%,其次是阿根廷,增幅为13%。因此,其他经济体,即占全球整形外科医师实力近11%的巴西,其频率也出现了4%的成长。
因此,我们进行了各种投资来平衡手术程序和外科医生实力之间的不平衡,并努力加强医生和医疗保健专业人员的整体频率。预计这将刺激经济中外科医生的数量,并为未来的市场扩张铺平道路。
粉末手术手套市场的地理前景
从地区来看,全球市场分为北美、南美、欧洲、中东和非洲以及亚太地区。由于主要区域经济体的外科手术数量增加,预计前者将占很大比例。例如,根据全球美容/整容手术调查,2023年印度进行的外科手术总数达到531,972例,比2022年的手术数量增加了37%。此外,脸部及头部相关手术占全国手术总数的42.4%。
消息人士进一步指出,日本、中国、印度和韩国合计占全球整形外科医师总数的21%。此外,其他经济体,即泰国,到 2023 年,手术数量将增加 7%,手术总数(包括手术和非手术)整体增加 1.3%。
政府投资加强医疗基础设施和建立新的基层医院等其他因素进一步促进了该地区的市场成长。
有粉手术手套最初因其灵活性而受到医疗专业人员的欢迎。然而,这种手套已被证明会引起患者发炎和疤痕组织,而且手套中的玉米粉会引起副作用,包括术后沾黏并增加感染疾病机会。
因此,为了尽量减少此类手套的负面影响,各监管部门都禁止使用有粉手术手套。例如,食品药物管理局(FDA) 在「禁止使用的器械:粉末状手术手套、粉末状病患检查手套以及提案禁止使用吸收性粉末润滑手术手套」的规定下,限制了此类手套在医疗环境中的使用由于患病和受伤的风险很高。
慢性病盛行率的增加正在增加相关手术的整体规模,这推动了手术手套的使用。然而,手术后,这种手套不再用于其他手术,变得毫无用处。随着这种做法的持续,主要国家的医疗废弃物总量不断增加,造成了严重的问题。
为了克服这些问题,人们正在投资开发由永续材料製成的手术手套,这些材料可以轻鬆降解,而不会对环境产生负面影响。因此,Ansell、Medine 和 Top Glove Corporation Bhd 等公司正在转向永续材料,并将其用作医用手套製造的关键成分。
例如,根据 ASTM D5511 标准,Top Glove 的 Biogreen生物分解性丁腈手套经过专门设计,可在垃圾掩埋场等厌氧环境中轻鬆分解。因此,该产品的分解速度比传统丁腈手套快 10 倍,支援 Top Glove 的目标,即提供适合医疗和非医疗程序的有效且经济高效的手套。
The powdered surgical gloves market will grow from US$186.187 million in 2024 to US$210.392 million in 2029 at a CAGR of 2.44%
Powdered surgical gloves are medical gloves that mainly contain powdered cornstarch as a donning agent, which absorbs sweat from the skin. Such gloves protect healthcare professionals and their patients from disease transmission in unhygienic conditions, owing to which they are applicable in medical facilities and ambulatory surgery centers. The growing strength of minimally invasive surgeries, the establishment of surgical centers, and the improved strength of surgeons in economies are anticipated to drive the market expansion.
However, the ongoing development in medical devices and surgical tools has laid a new scope for the surgical glove. The ongoing shift towards sustainable materials to minimize medical waste has propelled the development of biodegradable and powder-free surgical gloves. Major governing authorities, such as the Food and Drug Administration, are banning the usage of powdered gloves. Such initiatives are expected to hamper the overall market growth.
Powdered surgical gloves, through their unique lubrication, create a barrier for healthcare professionals that prevents them from coming in contact with any disease. Owing to their flexible nature, the gloves enable them to perform intricate or complex, mainly invasive surgeries. The growing chronic conditions globally have increased the frequency of such surgeries.
For instance, according to the Office for Health Improvement & disparities, in 2022, the total number of admissions related to cataract surgery reached 409,000 in England, signifying a rate of 3,803 over 100,000 population. Likewise, as per the European Corneal and Cell Transplant Registry, more than 30,000 corneal transplants are conducted annually in the region. The same source specified that in 2022, the total strength of cataract extraction in Europe stood at 271,347, representing a 7.3% growth over the surgery frequency reported in 2021.
Such an increase in minimally invasive surgeries is expected to drive the demand for a surgical glove that offers greater protection against any disease contamination thereby providing new growth prospects for the powdered surgical gloves market.
Surgical gloves constitute an integral surgical tool as they establish a barrier that offers sanitary protection to doctors and surgeons while operating on patients. The growing healthcare infrastructure and investment in new establishments to bolster the strength of healthcare professionals such as surgeons have provided new scope for the market demand for powdered surgical gloves.
According to the "Global Survey on Aesthetic/Cosmetic Procedures" report issued by the International Society for Aesthetic and Plastic Surgery for 2023, Turkey witnessed a 23% growth in its plastic surgeon strength, followed by Argentina, which experienced a 13% growth. Hence, other economies, namely Brazil, which also accounts for nearly 11% of the global plastic surgeon strength, experienced a 4% growth in their frequency.
Hence, to equalize the disbalance between surgical procedures and surgeons' strength, various investments are being made and initiatives undertaken to bolster the overall frequency of doctors and healthcare professionals. This is also expected to stimulate the number of surgeons in economies, thereby paving the way for future market expansion.
Powdered Surgical Gloves Market Geographical Outlook
Based on region, the global market is analyzed into North America, South America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and Asia Pacific. The former is expected to constitute a considerable share fuelled by the growing number of surgical procedures in major regional economies. For instance, according to the "Global Survey on Aesthetic/Cosmetic Procedures", in 2023, the total number of surgical procedures conducted in India reached 531,972, representing a 37% growth over the number of procedures conducted in 2022. Moreover, face & head-related procedures accounted for 42.4% of the total surgeries in the country.
Moreover, the same source further stated that Japan, China, India, and South Korea jointly accounted for 21% of the total number of plastic surgeons globally. Additionally, other economies, namely Thailand, experienced a 7% growth in surgical procedures and an overall 1.3% growth in the total number of procedures (both surgical & non-surgical) in 2023.
Additional factors, such as favorable government investments to bolster healthcare infrastructure and the establishment of new primary hospitals, further augment regional market growth.
Powdered surgical gloves initially were popular among healthcare professionals owing to their flexible nature. However, such gloves have been shown to cause inflammation and scar tissue in patients, and the cornstarch present in them causes adverse reactions, including post-surgical adhesions, which increase the probability of infections.
Hence, to minimize the negative impact of such gloves, various governing authorities have imposed a ban on powdered surgical gloves. For instance, the Food and Drug Administration, under its "Banned Devices; Proposal to Ban Powdered Surgeon's Gloves, Powdered Patient Examination Gloves, and Absorbable Powder for Lubricating a Surgeon's Glove," restricted the usage of such gloves in medical practices as they pose a greater risk of post-surgery illness and injury.
The growing prevalence of chronic conditions has increased the overall scale of related surgeries, which has propelled the usage of surgical gloves. However, post-surgery, such gloves are not used for other procedures and are rendered useless. Such ongoing practices have increased the overall volume of medical waste in major nations, which has become a serious concern.
To overcome such issues, investments are being made to develop surgical gloves made from sustainable materials that can easily be decomposed without leaving any negative environmental impact. Hence, companies such as Ansell, Medine, and Top Glove Corporation Bhd are transitioning towards sustainable materials and using them as key ingredients in medical glove production.
For instance, Top Glove's "BioGreen Biodegradable Nitrile Gloves" are based on ASTM D5511 standards and are specifically designed to easily decompose in anaerobic environments such as landfills. Hence, the product has a tenfold faster decomposition rate than conventional nitrile gloves and supports Top Glove's goals of providing effective and cost-efficient gloves that are ideal for medical and non-medical practices.
