Introduction to Bone Wax

Bone wax is a sterile mixture of beeswax and isopropyl palmitate, a wax-softening agent, used to help mechanically control bleeding from bone surfaces during surgical procedures. They are used for mechanical hemostasis in bones during surgical procedures, such as orthopedics, thoracic surgery, neurosurgery, dental, traumatology, and oral and jaw surgery. Bone was is effective under its tamponade action and don’t have any hemostatic properties. Moreover, bone wax is not soluble in the bodily fluids and thus remains at the site of implantation for a longer duration. They do not act biochemically and are minimally resorbable and supplied in two sterile 2.5 g (0.09 oz) packets.

Market Size and Forecast

The market of the bone wax is estimated to witness a notable growth in the coming future owing to an increasing number of cases for surgical and operating room procedure coupled with a rising case of incidence of orthopedic diseases, an increasing number of accidental fracture cases, and growing demand for minimally invasive surgical procedure. According to the National Safety Council (NSC) report, in 2017 about 526,000 were diagnosed with sports and recreation-related injuries and are expected to grow throughout the forecast period fueling the global market.

The bone wax market is anticipated to record a robust CAGR throughout the forecast period i.e. 2020-2028. The market is segmented by product, by material, by application &by end-user. Among these segments, the product segment is further segmented into absorbable bone wax, non-absorbable bone-waxout of which, the absorbable bone wax segment is anticipated to hold leading shares in the bone wax market on account of the safety, ease of application, and enhanced efficiency with their resorbable nature which does not necessitate the removal, and reduced chances of side effects coupled with patient compliance of the absorbable bone wax. Additionally, biocompatibility and swift bone hemostasis attributes of absorbable bone wax are one of the major driving forces of this segment. On the contrary, the orthopedic surgery segment of the application sector is estimated to register the highest revenue share during the forecast period owing to the rise in the prevalence of musculoskeletal conditions like trauma, tumors, degenerative diseases, congenital disorders, infections, and sports injuries. Based on end-user, the hospital segment is anticipated to witness notable growth over the forecast period on account of the increasing admissions of patient orthopedic disorder cases coupled with a rise in fall injuries among the geriatric population. CLICK TO DOWNLOAD SAMPLE REPORT
