The Pain Management Devices Market is driven by rising prevalence of chronic pain

The pain management devices market addresses the growing need for effective pain management solutions to treat chronic pain conditions among populations worldwide. Pain management devices provide drug-free options for chronic pain relief through therapies such as electrical stimulation, radiofrequency ablation, and cryotherapy. These technologies help alleviate pain by disrupting pain signals between the nerves and brain. Common chronic pain conditions treated include lower back pain, neck pain, arthritis, fibromyalgia and neuropathic pain.

The global pain management devices market is estimated to be valued at US$ 4,280.9 Mn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 6.5% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.

Market key trends:
The adoption of minimally invasive procedures is a key trend in the pain management devices market. Minimally invasive techniques for pain management such as radiofrequency ablation involve the use of thin needles or catheters to disrupt targeted nerves or terminate nerve pathways without significant surgical procedures. This reduces recovery time and risk of surgical complications compared to open surgeries. Growing patient preference for minimally invasive procedures to avoid complex surgeries is expected to drive the demand for radiofrequency ablation devices and neuromodulation therapies in the pain management market. Product innovations allowing improved accuracy and customized treatments will further increase the adoption of minimally invasive techniques for chronic pain relief over the forecast period.
