Orthopedic devices include bandages, splints, prostheses, and special apparatus. Several types of orthopedic devices are distinguished. A fixing device is designed to either wholly or partially restrict movements in a joint; examples are hinged splints, which preserve a specific range of motion in a joint, and rigid braces. Relieving devices are used to relieve pressure on an ailing part by transferring support to functional components of an extremity; examples include the Thomas splint and the Voskoboinikova apparatus. These devices are used to correct a deformity gradually; these include corsets, splints, orthopedic footwear, insoles, and other devices to adjust abnormal foot positions. The innovations and modern diagnostic techniques have significantly reduced the need for complex orthopedic surgical procedures. Furthermore, as per the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2017, the prevalence of musculoskeletal conditions increased with age. Moreover, patterns and prevalence of orthopedic problems vary from region to region due to environmental, racial, and geographic differences.

MARKET DRIVERS:

The rapid increase in the global aging population and rising patient count suffering from orthopedic diseases are majorly propelling the orthopedic devices market growth.

The growing geriatric population base is highly susceptible to the development of osteoporosis and osteoarthritis-related diseases. According to WHO, by 2050, the aging population worldwide is expected to hit 2 billion over 60 years. Increasing the elderly population would generate significant demand for various orthopedic devices and implants. With growing age, people suffer from various orthopedic diseases. Due to this, the demand for orthopedic procedures and devices such as joint replacements, spinal implants, and trauma fixation devices is growing significantly. On the other hand, the number of people suffering from various orthopedic diseases such as osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, traumatic fractures, and rheumatoid arthritis is growing considerably worldwide. As per the data published by the Centers for Disease Prevention and Control (CDC), an estimated 32.5 million adults suffer from osteoarthritis in the United States. According to an article published by National Centre for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) in 2016, an estimated 200 million people worldwide have osteoporosis. Let alone in the U.S.; an estimated 54 million people have osteoporosis. As per the information published by NCBI, an estimated 1.3 million adults in the United States suffer from rheumatoid arthritis. Likewise, the number of people suffering from orthopedic conditions is expected to promote the need for orthopedic devices and boost market growth.

The growing number of road accidents and sports injuries happening worldwide and increasing are further fuelling the growth rate of the orthopedic devices market.

Road accidents have been one of the significant causes of death among children and young adults worldwide, says WHO. An estimated 1.3 million people die yearly because of road accidents, and a considerable amount of the population. Per the data published by the MORTH India (Ministry of Road Transport & Highways), 412,432 accidents were recorded in 2021 in India and resulted in 153,972 deaths and 384,448 injuries. Road accidents damage several organs in the human body, including knee joints. The growing number of accidents is anticipated to demand more orthopedic devices and promote the market’s growth rate. On the other hand, the incidence of sports injuries is also increasing considerably with each year passing. An estimated 3.5 million injuries happen yearly among children due to their participation in sports and recreational activities in the United States.

The growing preference for minimally invasive surgical procedures stimulates global orthopedic devices market growth.

Owing to the advantages associated with minimally invasive surgeries, such as smaller incisions, reduced scarring, less blood loss, and faster recovery times, the adoption of these surgeries is growing significantly over traditional surgeries. As a result, the usage of orthopedic devices in minimally invasive surgeries has recently seen a spike as these devices are compatible with this type of surgery. In addition, with minimally invasive surgeries, patients can quickly discharge from the hospitals and have less possibility for post-operative complications. Due to this, the adoption of minimally invasive surgeries for orthopedic diseases is growing and resulting in the orthopedic devices market growth.

In addition, emerging economies offer lucrative opportunities to develop the orthopedic devices market shortly. In addition, the early onset of musculoskeletal conditions triggered by obesity and a sedentary lifestyle are expected to boost the orthopedic devices market growth. Growing diabetes and obesity prevalence, lack of physical activity, low dietary intake, and rising smoking and alcohol consumption patterns would fuel market demand over the forecast years. In addition, new osteology technologies will promote the production of cost-effective instruments. Advancements in technology in 3D printing, robot-assisted surgical procedures, and intelligent implants will reflect driving factors of high impact on global market size. Furthermore, the rising occurrence of road accidents and sports injuries and stimulating demand for minimally invasive surgical processes should stimulate the growth of the global orthopedic devices market. In addition, the availability of medical interventions with innovative materials and biodegradable implants will increase demand.

Currently, available trauma management techniques cannot successfully restore body parts due to the lack of efficient surgical tools. As a result, manufacturers invest significantly in Research and Development (R&D) to develop innovative and capable devices. Increased R&D activities are anticipated to ensure high orthopedic device market growth shortly. Furthermore, growing awareness regarding the availability of innovative products pushes hospitals to continually upgrade their devices and services. Besides, reimbursement coverage of orthopedic treatments has fuelled the adoption of orthopedic surgeries. Hence this factor led to the implementation and monitoring of many hospitals.

MARKET RESTRAINTS:

The high cost of orthopedic devices is one of the major factors hampering the market growth. Due to these high costs, healthcare providers and patients are interested in cheaper alternative options in some countries. Furthermore, the stringent regulatory environment is another major obstacle to market growth. In addition, unfavorable reimbursement policies for orthopedic devices in some countries and a lack of skilled professionals that can perform minimally invasive surgeries in some countries are hindering the growth rate of the market. Furthermore, the presence of alternatives to treat orthopedic diseases impedes the market growth.
