The global adhesion barrier market size is projected to reach USD 0.9 billion by 2028 from USD 0.7 billion in 2023, at a CAGR of 7.4%. The main drivers driving the growth of this market are the increasing amount of surgeries and sports-related injuries, a growing elderly population, and increasing understanding of adhesion formation and conditions associated with adhesions. During the forecast period, this market’s growth is anticipated to be constrained by surgeons’ resistance to using adhesion barriers.

Based on products, the adhesion barriers market is further segmented into synthetic and natural adhesion barriers. In 2022, the synthetic adhesion barriers segment accounted for the largest share of the adhesion barriers market. The large number of synthetic adhesion barriers that are commercially available and their higher utilisation by surgeons in various surgical procedures as compared to natural adhesion barriers can be attributed to the segment’s growth. The sub-segment of synthetic adhesion barriers includes hyaluronic acid, regenerated cellulose, polyethylene glycol, and other synthetic adhesion barriers. Because they are biocompatible and bioresorbable, hyaluronic acid-based adhesion barriers have the largest market share in the synthetic adhesion barrier market. These are frequently used for open and laparoscopic general surgeries, including those involving the abdomen, pelvis, gynaecology, and other surgeries.
Based on the type of formulation, the adhesion barriers market is segmented into film formulations, gel formulations, and liquid formulations. Given surgeon’s increased preference for adhesion barriers in the form of films as well as the availability of clinical safety and efficacy data for these formulations, film formulations dominated the adhesion barrier market in 2022.
Based on applications, General/Abdominal Surgeries surgeries held the largest share of the adhesion barriers market in 2022. A number of factors, including the increased risk of post-surgical adhesion formation in general/abdominal surgeries, the rising number of general/abdominal surgeries, and the availability of several commercialized adhesion barrier products for general/abdominal surgeries, can be attributed to the general/abdominal surgeries segment the large share of this market
Based on end user, hospitals and clinics held the largest share of the adhesion barriers market in 2022. The largest share of this segment in the market of adhesion barrier is attributed to the large number of surgeries happening in the hospitals and clinics in both developed and developing countries.
Geographically, the adhesion barriers market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and The Middle East and Africa. The North America’s strong healthcare system, higher public and private expenditures on health care, growing numbers of the geriatric population, and an increasing prevalence of chronic and lifestyle diseases all contributed to North America having the largest share of the adhesion barrier market. On the other hand, the APAC market for adhesion barrier will expand due to factors like the rapidly growing geriatric population, the epidemiological shift from infectious to chronic diseases, and the rise in medical tourism. As a result, the APAC is anticipated to grow at a higher CAGR than other regions during the forecast period.
