Implantable neurostimulators are in high demand due to their growing use for treating chronic neurological conditions and conditions like epilepsy and nociceptive pain. The neurostimulation therapy can be used to treat many disorders of the nervous system. It reduces chronic pain and other symptoms that can be associated with conditions such as Parkinson's and epilepsy. The current implantable neurostimulators are mainly focused on deep brain stimulation and spinal cord stimulation. These devices are surgically implanted into the organs of patients to deliver electrical stimulation to the desired parts of their brain, spinal cord and peripheral nervous systems. This is done to alter nerve cell activity and brain cells. Implantable neurostimulators are recommended for the treatment of conditions or diseases that don't respond to drugs.
According to the WHO, neurological disorders affect millions of people and account for 6.3% of the global disease burden. There are approximately 47.5 million people with dementia worldwide. 7.7 million new cases of dementia are diagnosed each year. Globally, depression and stress are a leading cause for disability. According to the WHO 2020 report, there are more than 264,000,000 people suffering from depression worldwide. Implantable neurostimulators are proving to be a valuable tool in the provision of therapeutic solutions for Parkinson's, epilepsy, and depression. This will drive the market for implantable neural stimulators over the forecast period.
Implantable neurostimulators will see a rise in demand due to improved patient outcomes. These procedures use light electrical currents to stimulate the nerves that are associated with pain signals. This is due to the fact that these procedures are less painful, more cost-efficient, safer, more effective, and faster than traditional ones. The other factors responsible for replacing open/invasive neurosurgeries by minimally invasive ones are the lower incision wounds, which leads to greater patient satisfaction and economic viability due to shorter hospital stays, fewer post-surgical complications, as well as lower mortality. These are all factors that have contributed to the growth of the implantable neurostimulators market.
In recent years, the U.S. has seen an increase in neurological disorders and lifestyle-related conditions. There is also a growing demand for minimally invasive surgery. Implantable neurostimulators are being driven by the rising incidence of disorders like Parkinson's disease and spinal cord injury, as well as migraines, bladder incontinence, and depression. According to the Parkinson's Foundation study, 10.0 million people are living with PD. By 2020, nearly one million Americans will have PD. Each year, approximately 60,000 Americans get diagnosed with PD. According to the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA), 1 in 5 Canadians are suffering from some type of mental illness or problem. With the rising number of neurological disorders, demand for implantable nerve stimulators is expected to increase significantly. This will boost the market growth for implantable neurons in the forecast period.
This market will benefit from technological advancements in implantable neural stimulators. These technological advances include robot-assisted implantation, multi-target stimulation and improved microelectrode design. They also include rechargeable implantable pulse generators and personalized programming. Implantable neurostimulators are now more effective, have fewer adverse effects and provide symptomatic relief for patients with neurological disorders. To treat the symptoms of related disorders and to reduce adverse effects, key players continue to incorporate unique technologies into their product lines. The Infinity DBS system from Abbott, for instance, is a new technology that delivers personalized therapy to patients in order to manage their symptoms.
In 2019, 52.5% of the market's implantable neurostimulators revenue came from the spinal cord stimulators segment. This was the highest revenue share at 52.5%. Spinal Cord Stimulators are often used after other medication options fail to provide adequate relief for chronic neuropathic pain. The devices deliver low levels of electricity directly to the spinal cord, relieving pain without any anatomical modifications. The market for implantable neural stimulators is forecast to grow during the forecast period due to increasing use of SCS in failed back surgeries, peripheral neuropathy pain, pain due to low blood supply, complex regional pain syndrome and occipital neurogia.
The highest CAGR is expected to be in the segment of sacral nerve stimulators, which will see 13.0% growth between 2020 and 2027. This is due to an increasing number of overactive bladder patients and increased awareness about treating nervous system disorders. According to the National Association for Continence, over 33.0 millions Americans suffer from some form of bladder condition or urinary incontinence. Women are more affected than men. These stimulators can be used to treat chronic conditions like fecal and urinary incontinence. This will boost the segment growth over the forecast period.
The market for implantable neurostimulators has been dominated by the pain management segment. It accounted for 65.1% of the total revenue in 2019, and is expected to see the highest CAGR at 12.3% between 2020 and 2027. Segment growth is expected to be boosted by the high prevalence of chronic pain disorders like migraine, leg pain, and disk surgery pain. According to the Migraine Foundation 2020, migraine is the third most common neurological condition worldwide, with 1.0 billion people suffering from it globally and 39.0 millions in the U.S. The key driver of segment growth is expected to be the increasing use of pain management products due to their therapeutic benefits.
Implantable neurostimulators will also be in demand due to the rising incidence of Parkinson's disease. According to statistics from Parkinson's U.K., over 145,000 people have Parkinson's disease. This number will rise to 172,000 by 2030 in the U.K. as a result of increasing population and aging. This is likely to drive market development. Several manufacturers are developing advanced products to improve patient care and drive segment growth over the forecast period.
