The online pharmacy segment is projected to grow at a rapid pace in the coming years, owing to the inclination of consumers towards online services such as discounts and home delivery.
The outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the global supply chain, due to lockdown measures, travel restrictions, and manufacturing disruptions. Supply chain issues led to challenges in the production and distribution of several healthcare products, causing delays in delivery and shortages in some regions. Supply chain disruptions moderately impacted the availability of essential raw materials required for manufacturing wound irrigation solution. Governments have imposed social distancing and remote working as well as shut down economic operations globally, which hampered the global wound irrigation solution market.
Increasing support by various governments and environmentalists through investments in the manufacture of wound irrigation solutions is expected to fuel the market post-pandemic. R&D was halted, due to social distancing laws imposed during the pandemic. A decrease in research activity, due to laboratory closures and reduced clinical testing, slightly negatively affected the Wound Irrigation Solution Market.
As per growth market reports by industry analyst Raksha Sharma, “Factors such as increase in accidents, surgeries, changing lifestyles, and the prevalence of chronic diseases play a significant role in the growth of global wound irrigation solution market.”
Supply chain management is an essential part of any business. Supply chain contains a series of steps to get products from their original state to the customers. These steps include transforming raw materials into final products, transporting those products, and distributing them to the end-users. Quality checks are performed throughout the production process by manufacturers to ensure the quality of the product. The products are then supplied to the distributors. End-users are the final step of the supply chain. End-users of wound irrigation solution include acute care hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, and wound care clinics & private offices.
