Technologies developed and in use for the management of acute and chronic wounds have diversified from traditional dressings, bandages and wound closure techniques to include an increasing number of diverse technologies ranging from tissue engineering, growth [...]
Technologies for ablation and other energy-based treatments in medical/surgical markets are currently dominated by electrosurgical-type therapies, but a growing array of other modalities are creating new applications or penetrating existing ones.
At right is shown the forecast, by modality type, of ablation and other energy-based therapies through 2017. The most significant growth is expected to [...]
The “advanced medical technologies” blog draws from the research, publications and other content of MedMarket Diligence as well as from my own readings, insights and perspectives. While I am not wont to be stingy, I am not always inclined to give up valuable sources, but in the interest of quid pro quo, perhaps, I’d like [...]

This is an excerpt from Report #S245, “Wound Management, 2007-2016: Established and Emerging Products, Technologies and Markets in the U.S., Europe, Japan and Rest of World,” published by MedMarket Diligence, LLC (November 2007).
Wound types fall into four general categories — surgical, traumatic, burns, and chronic — yet there is a wide variety of specific types, [...]
The balance of patient caseload distributed among alternative spine surgery technologies will demonstrate marked shifts from 2009 to 2017 as technologies/techniques like kyphoplasty and nucleus replacement gain greater presence at the expense of traditional approaches like spine fusion. This is apparent in the shares of the markets each technology will represent in 2009 versus 2017.
Shares [...]

This report details the complete range of products and technologies in the surgical management of spine disorders, diseases and trauma, from grafts, demineralized bone, fusion, stabilization, disc/nucleus replacement, vertebroplasty, kyphoplasty, imaging, minimally invasive surgical technologies, energy-based therapies and biologics. The report details current clinical and technology developments in this [...]
The revenues to be had from the clinical management of obesity, whether derived from pharmaceutical or device sales, are forecast to see double-digit growth through 2015. Although revenues have been dampened by the FDA’s negative reaction to Sanofi-Aventis’ application for rimonabant, there are other drug compounds in late stages of testing which may prove to [...]
Product Development History
During the 19th century, surgeons began to experiment with materials designed to achieve hemostasis: gelatin, collagen, natural fabrics, and thrombin and fibrin materials. In the early 1980s today’s commercial products began to appear. They were rapidly adopted in Japan where bleeding is an extremely emotive issue, and also in Europe where local regulatory [...]
We have just updated our “High Growth Medical Technologies” white paper, as we expect to continually do in the immediate future, since the areas with growth keep changing, and new areas keep appearing.
As all white papers should be, it’s free. Here’s the link so you can download it.
