Traditional wound dressings are generally used to treat acute wounds by promoting the wound healing process. They help absorbing exudates, inhibiting infection, preventing bleeding and drying of wounds. Proper care of acute wounds prevents the formation of chronic wounds by utilizing traditional wound care products. Traditional wound dressings include abdominal pads, conforming bandage, gauges and sponges. They are made up of different raw-materials, such as cotton, polyester and rayon. In addition, traditional wound dressings are also available as woven and non-woven dressing material.

Advanced wound dressing is used to treat chronic wounds, which fail to heal properly in timely manner. Advanced wound dressings include foam dressings, hydrocolloid dressings, film dressings, alginate dressings, hydrogel dressings, collagen dressings and others. The other advanced wound dressing consists of chitosan, elastin and hyaluronic acid for the treatment of chronic wounds.

However, high cost associated with the usage of advance wound dressings is the key restraint in the growth of wound dressing market worldwide. The high cost of advanced wound dressing, such as foams, hydrocolloids, film, alginate, hydrogel and collagen, limits the affordability of the users. As a result, consumption of advanced wound dressing decreases despite higher therapeutic efficiency, hampering the growth of global wound dressing market.
