SAWC Fall 2023: Skin Substitutes Reign Again

12/12/23 9:30 AM

SAWC FALL 2023 Vegas copy 2Over the last 10+ years, the market for skin substitutes has been turbulent with new technologies and products being launched and reimbursement changes occurring for the various sites of care. SmartTRAK highlights a few of these based on the recent SAWC Fall meeting.

Skin substitutes, also referred to as CTPs (cellular and/or tissue-based products) or CAMPs (cellular, acellular and matrix‑like products), remained front and center at the Symposium on Advanced Wound Care (SAWC) Fall meeting held in Las Vegas on November 2-5, 2023. The strong presence of these products mirrors a similar trend in the overall US Advanced Wound Care (AWC) market. For Q323, skin substitutes alone account for 37% of the US AWC market, more than Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) or Advanced Dressings, according to an analysis of SmartTRAK Financial Dashboard.

In this article, SmartTRAK discusses in detail:

  • The Migration of Skin Substitutes Over the Years
  • Which Synthetics are Gaining Attention
  • New Companies–Unique Technology and Innovations
  • Health Policy Dynamics–Reimbursement and Advocacy
  • The Future of US-Based AWC Companies
  • The Potential for Acquisitions on the Horizon
