by Combat dressing is a compress bandage that is designed for immediate and temporary wound management during combat and warfare situations. It helps in stopping blood loss and preventing infections in severe injuries caused by bullet wounds, stab wounds, shrapnel injuries, and other penetrating trauma on the battlefield.

With increasing geopolitical conflicts and civil unrest in various parts of the world, the incidence of warfare injuries has risen markedly. This has fueled the need for quick and effective hemorrhage control solutions like combat dressing kits among military forces globally.
The global Combat Dressing Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 5.53 Mn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 2.4% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market key trends:
One of the major trends in the combat dressing market is the development of advanced hemostatic dressings. Compared to conventional gauze dressings, hemostatic dressings are more effective in controlling bleeding in case of severe injuries. They work by accelerating the body’s natural blood clotting process through their active ingredients. Some examples of novel hemostatic dressings that are gaining popularity include kaolin coated dressings, zeolite hemostatic dressings, and combat gauze impregnated with freeze dried platelets and thrombin. Their superior efficacy over traditional methods in achieving rapid hemostasis is increasing their adoption among defense forces globally.
