Qualitative and quantitative insights were obtained by interviewing supply-side and demand-side stakeholders during the primary research process. The supply-side sources consisted of CEOs, VPs of Product Development, regulatory affairs chiefs, and commercial directors from medical device OEMs, adhesive technology providers, and wound closure strip manufacturers. Procurement managers from hospitals and ambulatory surgical centers, medical directors from home healthcare agencies, wound care specialists, principal surgeons, and surgical nurses comprised demand-side sources. Market segmentation was validated, product pipeline timelines were confirmed, and insights regarding clinical adoption patterns, pricing strategies, reimbursement dynamics, and antimicrobial technology integration were obtained through primary research.
