Industry Background:
According to a Journal, ‘Clinical Orthopedics and Related Research’, 15% of the world’s population is affected by joint pain and disability resulting in Osteoarthritis of the ankle. Moreover, Center for Disease Control and Prevention has stated that, By 2040, estimated doctor-diagnosed cases are around 78 million (26%) in the United States. The increasing number of sports injuries and ageing population is driving the Global ankle replacement market. Ankle replacement is also known as ankle arthroplasty which is a surgical procedure in which damaged articular surfaces of human ankle joint is replaced with the prosthetic components. Severe arthritis is the result of progressive wearing down of the articular cartilage layer which cushions the joint’s moving surface resulting in bone on bone grinding with joint motion. Arthritis results in pain, loss of function and mobility. To avoid these complications non-operative ankle replacement or total ankle replacement (TAR) is expected to provide relief with ankle motion. Ankle replacement has evolved over the years and has replaced ankle fusion (locks the joint at a fixed position).
According to AMA, the market for Ankle Replacement is expected to register a CAGR of 6.24% during the forecast period to 2027. This growth is primarily driven by Increased Incidence of Accident and Trauma Patients, Rising Prevalence of Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients and The Rising Number of the Ageing Population.
Globally, a noticeable market trend is evident Active Lifestyle and Injuries Related To Sports Activity. The Health Care Services sector in the North America region has been increasing at a sustainable rate and further growth is expected to be witnessed over the forecast period, owing to the robust investments and expansion in production facilities in the region.
