The global burn care market size is expected to reach USD 4.23 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 7.18% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Increasing incidences of burn injuries are anticipated to fuel the demand for cost-effective treatment over the forecast period. For instance, according to NIH report (published in 2022) about 450,000 patients received treatment for burns annually, and about 30,000 require admission to burn centers.
As per the same source, 96.0% of fatal fire-related burns occur in low to middle-income countries. According to the data published by the NIH, on average, 265,000 deaths are caused by burns every year. The majority of these deaths occur in low to middle-income countries and half of them occur in South East Asia. Moreover, around 1,000,000 people in India are moderately or severely burnt and around 173,000 children in Bangladesh are burnt each year.
It also reported that in the U.S., approximately 4,500 burn victims die annually and 10,000 die due to burn-related infections. Owing to this substantial increase in the number of burn incidences, the patient population for burn care and treatment has increased. This, in turn, is expected to drive market growth over the forecast period. Furthermore, due to the rising incidences of burns, the demand for treatment options is increasing and as a result, the overall healthcare expenditure on burn care is increasing.
Treatment options for burn care include advanced dressings, biologics, traditional burn care products, and others. The foam dressings developed from semipermeable polyurethane are waterproof and can be used on heavily exuding wounds. As a result of which they are preferred over normal dressings which are not waterproof and need to be changed regularly.
