by The prosthetics and orthotics industry deals with the production and distribution of orthopedic braces and artificial limbs. Prosthetics are artificial devices that replace missing or deficient body parts like legs, arms, hands etc, while orthotics are devices that support or correct deformities and abnormalities of the body. The major applications of prosthetics and orthotics include pediatric, lower extremity and upper extremity applications. Increasing cases of road accidents, injuries and birth defects have boosted demand for prosthetic and orthotic devices. Furthermore, advancements in materials science have enabled development of lightweight, durable and comfortable prosthetics that closely mimic natural limbs and gait. Carbon fiber, thermoplastic resin and 3D printing technologies are being used to manufacture customized prosthetics.
The global Prosthetics And Orthotics Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 6923.2 Mn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 11% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market key trends:
There has been rise in number of trauma cases, amputations and limb loss disorders globally due to various reasons such as diabetes, vascular diseases, tumors, injuries etc. As per reports, around 185,000 amputations are performed annually in the US. This has boosted demand for prosthetic and orthotic devices. Furthermore, 3D printing technologies are enabling fabrication of customized prosthetics as per individual dimensions, thereby enhancing comfort and usability. Companies are also focusing on development of myoelectric and microprocessor controlled prosthetics that can mimic natural movements more closely. Rising incomes in developing nations is also expected to drive market growth during the forecast period.
