(PRWeb) February 13, 2007 -- MedMarket Diligence has tracked the emergence and growth of novel technologies in wound closure, hemostasis and anti-adhesion over the past decade, providing insight into market introduction, growth, competition and opportunity through worldwide analysis. The products, markets and companies in this medical technology arena have now been analyzed in a new report from MedMarket Diligence. The 2007 report details the markets worldwide, with detailed geographic segmentation, for surgical sealants, glues, hemostats, sutures, tapes and other wound closure technologies.

Opportunities for products in wound closure, hemostasis and anti-adhesion products continue to be available for established and emerging companies, driven by innovation in the products themselves and penetration of more caseload, including growth in more medical and surgical specialties. The market for these products is also growing through their expansion globally, with products being introduced and finding clinical acceptance in the U.S., Europe, Central and South America elsewhere in the world.

"The global market for these products has picked up pace and is now on steady growth rates, even as new forms of the products, with improved performance, greater ease of use and greater application to new clinical procedures are being developed and introduced," says Patrick Driscoll, president of MedMarket Diligence. According to Driscoll, the market is also experiencing increased competition given the number of players, and this in turn has led to some consolidation. A number of market leaders have solidified their positions within the surgical closure and securement markets through successful internal development programs and through technology partnerships with innovative vendors of next generation technologies.

MedMarket Diligence has completed a comprehensive worldwide analysis of the market for surgical sealants, glues/adhesives, hemostats, tapes, sutures, and anti-adhesion products. The report details the products on the market, their current and forecast penetration of clinical application, new products under development and their status, the current and forecast market for products by major country market worldwide, and the current and hopeful competitors in the market and their positions, strengths and strategies.
