MARKET DRIVERS:
The growing sports-related injuries and technological advancements in treatment procedures are driving the global sports medicine market growth.
An increasing number of casualties with sports, technological advances in sports medicine equipment, increased government budget allocations in the sports sector, and the penetration of key players into emerging markets are a few of the significant factors promoting the growth of the global sports medicine market. In addition, the growing focus of private and government organizations on developing infrastructure for sports, increasing scholarships, and corporate funds for athletes help the sports medicine market grow.
The prevalence of sports injuries in the Asia Pacific region is high. For example, at the 2010 Guangzhou Summer Asian Games, 430 athletes reported 725 casualties. Among them, 288 of the 209 athletes started fresh, with 45.5 injuries per 1,000 athletes.
In Australia, football is the most competitive sport, with more than 3,000 athletes were in the hospitals between 2011 and 2012. At the same time, more than 36,000 Australians over the age of 15 were hospitalized due to sports injuries. Therefore, the high incidence of sports injuries in this region is likely to boost the Australian sports medicine market.
Recent technological enhancements in health care and pharmaceutical industries, the continually rising rate of injuries and accidents, and the emergence of 3D implants push the demand for sports medicines. In addition, emerging economies of countries like the United States, China, the United Kingdom, India, the U.A.E, and others provide lucrative opportunities for the growth of the global sports medicine market.
MARKET RESTRAINTS:
In developing countries, there is no fully developed medical facility due to low economic growth. The health care costs of governments in these countries are also relatively low, and acceptance of these products is quiet. The lack of sports culture is also a factor limiting the growth of the market. The markets in these countries are also susceptible to prices. The factors mentioned above are impeding the demand of the market.
The prosthetic testing for medical staff and lack of clear guidelines on hormones are the main challenges in the global sports medicine market. The high cost of new procedures and sub-standard infrastructure in some developing countries constrain the market's growth. Additionally, lack of proper guidelines regarding the medicines, unavailability of trained professionals, and disproportionate administration further restrain the market growth.
COVID 19 impact on the sports medicine market:
COVID 19 pandemic has affected many lives in an unpredicted manner. All the sports activities have been postponed due to lockdown restrictions. In addition, the International Olympic Committee has postponed Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics to 2021. These factors limited the growth rate of the sports medicine market. According to the survey, around 28.4 million surgeries were postponed or canceled due to COVID-19 in 2020. However, the global sports medicine market is estimated to do well during the forecast period.
