The growing number of people diagnosed with diabetes across the U.S. is one of the key factors driving the negative pressure wound therapy market in the U.S. Nearly 15% of the diabetic population suffer from diabetic foot ulcers and chronic wounds. A diabetic foot ulcer is a significant chronic wound in the diabetic patient, which take a long time the healing. Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) can be an effective treatment option for chronic and complex wounds. NPWT is a non-invasive therapy that removes the excess fluid/bad fluid from the wound, which results in wound healing and reduces pain in the wound area.

The growing incidence of surgical wounds further drives growth in the U.S. market. The number of surgical wounds that result from the surgeries is increasing with each year passing. After surgical procedures, people suffer from a wound that requires treatment for a fast cure without any further infection. This surgical-related infection can be treated using negative pressure wound therapy for positive results.

However, one-fourth of the women suffer from surgical site infection post-cesarean delivery for various reasons. As a result, prophylactic negative pressure wound therapy is a single-use and battery-powered system approved by the FDA and can be used after cesarean delivery at the surgical site. In addition, the growing aging population is expected to contribute to market growth in the coming days.
