Preoperative Infection Prevention and Wound Cleansing Devices Market Report 2025

The preoperative infection prevention and wound cleansing devices market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.18 billion in 2024 to $2.35 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing surgical procedures, regulatory guidelines and compliance, focus on healthcare-associated infections (HAIs), shift in healthcare practices, and increased awareness and education.

The preoperative infection prevention and wound cleansing devices market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.28 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising surgical volume in emerging markets, focus on minimally invasive surgeries, shift towards outpatient and ambulatory surgeries, demand for single-use and disposable devices, increased regulatory emphasis on infection control. Major trends in the forecast period include integration of artificial intelligence (AI), telehealth applications, focus on antibiotic resistance mitigation, emphasis on sustainability, remote monitoring and digital health.

The rising incidence of hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) is fueling the growth of the preoperative infection prevention and wound cleansing devices market. HAIs are infections that patients acquire during their time in healthcare facilities, often resulting from exposure to pathogens, invasive procedures, or extended hospital stays. Factors contributing to the increase in HAIs include antimicrobial resistance, overcrowded healthcare settings, and the prevalence of invasive medical procedures. Preoperative infection prevention and wound cleansing devices are essential for mitigating the risk of HAIs by sterilizing the surgical site, reducing bacterial contamination, and ensuring proper wound care before and after surgical interventions. For example, in April 2024, a report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a US-based national public health organization, indicated that acute care hospitals experienced the largest rise in healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) in NICUs, with an 11% increase between 2021 and 2022. Thus, the growing incidence of HAIs is driving the expansion of the preoperative infection prevention and wound cleansing devices market.

The rising number of surgical procedures is significantly contributing to the growth of the preoperative infection prevention and wound cleansing devices market. Surgical procedures, commonly referred to as operations or simple surgery, involve making incisions in the body using instruments. These devices are crucial in surgical settings, greatly reducing the risk of surgical site infections (SSIs). For instance, in June 2024, The International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS), a US-based professional organization for board-certified aesthetic plastic surgeons, reported a notable 16.7% increase in surgical procedures in 2022, with over 14.9 million surgeries performed globally. This uptick contributes to a remarkable 41.3% growth in aesthetic surgery over the past four years, highlighting a strong trend toward surgical interventions in aesthetic plastic surgery. Therefore, the increasing number of surgical procedures is expected to drive the preoperative infection prevention and wound cleansing devices market.

Leading companies in the preoperative infection prevention and wound cleansing devices market are concentrating on product innovations, such as sterile antiseptic solutions, to improve patient safety and minimize the risk of surgical site infections. A sterile antiseptic solution is a liquid formulation containing antimicrobial agents designed to eliminate or inhibit the growth of microorganisms on the skin or mucous membranes. For example, in April 2023, 3M Health Care, a US-based provider of medical solutions, introduced the 3M SoluPrep S Sterile Antiseptic Solution. This new FDA-approved product is intended for preoperative skin preparation and combines chlorhexidine gluconate with isopropyl alcohol to deliver fast-acting, broad-spectrum antimicrobial efficacy. Featuring innovative aspects such as a visible Brite Green tint and an efficient applicator design, the solution aims to enhance surgical preparation while ensuring patient safety and comfort.

Major companies in the preoperative infection prevention and wound cleansing devices market are concentrating on wireless imaging devices to enhance services for customers. Wireless imaging devices are transforming surgical procedures by eliminating cumbersome cables and wires, improving the overall surgeon experience and patient outcomes. Swift Medical, a digital wound care company based in Canada, launched Swift Ray 1 in March 2022 - a small hardware device that wirelessly attaches to a smartphone camera and captures beneath-the-skin clinical data. This innovation allows clinicians to take high-quality medical pictures from any location, facilitating early detection of infections and enabling patients recovering from surgery to monitor their surgical sites.

In October 2024, Mölnlycke Health Care, a medical device company based in Sweden, acquired P.G.F. Industry Solutions GmbH for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition is intended to broaden the Granudacyn product line and enhance its wound care portfolio to meet the growing demand for effective wound management solutions. P.G.F. Industry Solutions GmbH is an Austrian manufacturer specializing in Granudacyn wound cleansing and moistening solutions.
