“Amongst Products, Absorbable Sutures segment holds the major share”
Based on products, the surgical suture market is segmented into absorbable sutures, non-absorbable sutures, multifilament sutures, and automated suturing devices. Absorbable suture showed the highest revenue in the products segment of the market. An absorbable suture gradually loses its tensile strength. It loses most of its strength within 1 to 3 weeks and it fully absorbed by the body within 3 months. Absorbable sutures were traditionally used for deep sutures, however, recently their use have extended to wound closures in adults and children.

Based on application, the surgical sutures market is segmented into cardiovascular surgeries, general surgeries, gynecological surgeries, orthopedic surgeries, ophthalmic surgeries, cosmetic & plastic surgeries, and other applications. Cardiovascular surgeries had the highest revenue in the surgical sutures market in the applications segment. During open heart surgeries, a major complication is sternal wound infection. This can be prevented by proper closure of the sternal incision using intracutaneous suture. As the number of heart surgeries are increasing with the increasing geriatric population, the use of intracutaneous sutures for the heart are also increasing.
