Hemostatic Agents Market Overview and Introduction

The global Hemostatic Agents market was estimated to be over US$ 3 Bn in 2018. It is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 6.1% from 2019 to 2030.

Hemostatic agents are used to control bleeding. A process that involves curbing the blood flow or bleeding through a blood vessel, or hemorrhage is called hemostasis. Hemostatic agents aid in hemostasis, by forming a clot at the injured area, thereby repairing the blood vessel. Primary hemostasis, secondary hemostasis, and fibrinolysis are some of the types of the hemostasis. Hemostatic agents are deployed to stem blood flow by promoting clotting, thereby enhancing the hemostasis through the coagulation process. These agents boost hemostasis by progressing primary hemostasis, increasing fibrin formation, or inhibiting fibrinolysis. Hemostatic agents play a pivotal role in curbing of bleeding or treating serious bleeds, thereby validating their usage in diverse therapeutic areas. They are not only used in hospital settings but also in military, clinics and home care settings.

Rise in research and development activities, adoption of hemostatic agents across various therapeutic areas is have crucial in contributing towards the growth of the global market. Additionally, steady rise in geriatric population that requires medical attention and surgery to treat various ailments, is fueling the demand for hemostatic agents, thus boosting the growth of the global market. The advent of advanced hemostatic agents is resulting in better patient outcomes and helping the surgeons to dispense fast-acting and safe treatments to their patients. However, adverse reactions could manifest themselves by the way of inflammation, hypotension or in some rare cases anaphylaxis and these allergic reactions are anticipated to impede the growth of this market.
