Global Orthopedic Braces And Supports Market by Product (Pain Management Products, Brace Type), by End Use (Orthopedic Clinics, Hospitals, OTC) and Region (North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific and Middle East & Africa), Forecast To 2028
Summary of the Report
Global orthopedic braces and supports sales were valued at more than USD 4.9 billion in 2018. The market is expected to grow 6.4% during the forecast period. The key growth driver is the rising incidence of osteoarthritis. This is the most common type of arthritis that affects all ages. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, nearly 78 million Americans over 18 years old will be diagnosed with arthritis in 2040. People with arthritis make up the largest segment of the orthopedic brace market. Another form of arthritis, called rheumatoid, affects the joints and causes muscle pain.
The highest demand for orthotic braces and supports is from the elderly population. These people are highly vulnerable to musculoskeletal diseases. As we age, bones and connective tissues such as cartilages and ligaments naturally become weaker. This increases the risk of injury to muscles, especially in the knees and shoulders for seniors. This stiffens the joints and makes it more difficult to move. Market growth is expected to be driven by a growing geriatric population.
With the increase in sports, injuries to athletes are on the rise. Running, cycling and other fitness-related activities are what athletes are focusing on. These athletes can gain health benefits but they also have the potential to injure themselves, which could further increase their risk of ligament injury. Indoor athletes are more at risk of a ligament tear in their ankles. They are therefore expected to be a large market for ankle braces. Ankle braces are also recommended by orthopedists after an acute ankle injury.
To protect themselves against further injury, athletes also use orthotic braces. They can restrict unwanted movement during matches and facilitate a more comfortable play.
Product Insights
Braces dominated the market in 2018, owing to the rise in injuries and related conditions such as arthritis. The brace type can be further divided into knee, ankle and back, as well as upper extremity braces, supports and walking boots. These products are in high demand due to the rising incidence of ankle and knee injuries.
Due to the increasing number of people with knee joint injuries, knee braces and supports were the biggest revenue generators in 2018. The knee braces provide pressure relief for arthritis-related pain in the knee joints. Patients who have had knee surgery, as well as those with arthritis or other joint-related conditions, use these products most often.
Due to the growing demand for pain management products and increasing prevalence of pain-related disorders, 2018 saw significant market share in pain management products. This market segment can be sub-divided into Deep Vein Thrombosis products (DVT) and cold therapy.
Doctors recommend walking boots for the stabilization of fractures and tendon tears in the foot and ankle regions. This segment has seen low revenue generation due to its limited use. The segmentation of walking boots is further broken down into pneumatic or non-pneumatic.
End Use Insights
The market for orthopedic braces and supporting systems can be divided into hospitals, orthopedic clinics, Over-the-Counter and other facilities based on their end use. The largest market share for orthopedic clinics was held in 2018 due to patients' low preference for visiting hospitals with acute musculoskeletal issues.
OTC-related orthopedic braces will experience a significant growth in the future due to their easy availability at retail pharmacies. OTC products are preferred by patients suffering from acute muscle pain. These products are quick and effective in treating damaged muscles and joints.
Due to an increase in hospital admissions for treatment of spinal and traumatic injuries, bone fractures and injuries sustained in road accidents, hospitals held a substantial market share. Because of their wide application in treating spinal fusion, delayed union and nonunion fractures, hospitals often use orthotic braces and support products.
These products are also required by trauma centers, sports academy, pharmacies at gyms/health club, and emergency rooms. Sports academies, health clubs, and gyms are all common places for athletic injuries. They use a variety of orthopedic bracing products.
Regional Insights
Due to increased awareness about bracing devices that assist mobility and prevent injury, North America dominated the market in 2018. Due to high numbers of obese and elderly Americans, there is a high chance of developing osteoporosis. The region's market will grow rapidly due to the rising incidence of orthotic conditions and high adoption of advanced products.
Europe is expected to experience lucrative growth over the forecast period due to its well-developed healthcare infrastructure and availability of high-quality products. It also has skilled professionals. Another factor expected to support regional market growth is the growing demand for innovative therapies and products in Europe.
Asia Pacific is expected to show a lucrative CAGR over the forecast period. This is due to China's large geriatric population, which will drive the product demand. Japan is also an important contributor to the market due to its advanced manufacturing facilities.
