What is driving growth in the wound care market?

The wound care market is growing due largely to socioeconomic factors—increased rates of diabetic ulcers, an aging population , and increases in access to care through telehealth and home health.

How is AI being used in wound care?

AI is being used in a multitude of ways in wound care. One of the longest-standing uses for AI is in wound imaging and measurement. All the way back in 2017 , it was known that AI wound measurement was more accurate than human measurements. Since then, the practice has been more widely adopted by wound care specialists. Newer technologies, like ambient documentation , are starting to make their way into EHRs that wound care practitioners use. Wound treatment prediction applications are on the horizon, but haven’t yet taken much of the market.

What are the biggest challenges in wound care today?

Wound care clinicians face challenges primarily in the regulatory space right now. Changes to reimbursement and compliance requirements have impacted wound care practitioners’ process for treating common wounds like diabetic and venous ulcers. Advanced options like CTPs are more difficult to get reimbursed for, so the treatment tactics for treating many wounds have changed.

How can providers improve wound care outcomes?

Improving wound care outcomes often relies on continuing education and remaining up-to-date on best practices, but outcomes and treatment can also be improved through technology with improved tracking tools and interoperability. Making sure practitioners can see the whole history of the wound at hand is key in ensuring the treatment of the wound is complete and following the proper treatment approaches.
