Orthopedic Trauma Devices Market: Overview

Any serious injury to the bones, joints, or soft tissue that results from an external source is referred to as orthopedic trauma. These injuries are frequently brought on by an unexpected event, such as a vehicle accident or slip and fall, but not necessarily. Excessive use can also result in trauma; for instance, long-distance running frequently results in tibial stress fractures, which are minute hairline cracks in the lower leg. Orthopedic trauma devices are used to fix shattered bones and help restore the anatomic alignment of joint surfaces, enabling regeneration and the restoration of the afflicted body part's full functionality. Among the tools and instruments used in reconstructive surgery are screws, plate systems, intramedullary nails, and specialized implants. Titanium, stainless steel, and other materials are frequently used in the manufacture of these devices. Orthopedic trauma is treated with polylactic acid and polyglycolic acid.

Orthopedic Trauma Devices Market: Growth Drivers

Increasing road accidents across the globe drive market expansion

The increasing number of road accidents across the globe is expected to flourish the global orthopedic trauma devices market growth during the forecast period. According to "Road Accidents in India 2021," there were 4,12,432 road accident incidents in 2021, which resulted in 1,53,972 fatalities and 3,84,448 injuries. Moreover, as per the data from the World Health Organization, the lives of almost 1.3 million individuals are cut short annually as a result of traffic accidents. There are an additional 20 to 50 million people who sustain non-fatal injuries, many of whom go on to develop disabilities. Thus, these stats support the market revenue growth during the forecast period.

Orthopedic Trauma Devices Market: Restraints

High costs and limited reimbursements hamper the market growth

Orthopedic trauma devices, particularly cutting-edge implants and tools, can be expensive. Some individuals and healthcare systems may not be able to afford these therapies, especially in areas with limited healthcare resources. Furthermore, orthopedic trauma devices may not always be fully covered by reimbursement programs. This may have an impact on patient affordability and discourage healthcare organizations from implementing the latest, most advanced technology. Thus, this is expected to act as a major restraining factor to the orthopedic trauma devices industry growth during the forecast period.

Orthopedic Trauma Devices Market: Opportunities

Growing regulatory approval offers an attractive opportunity for market growth

The growing regulatory approvals are expected to offer an attractive opportunity for orthopedic trauma devices market growth during the forecast period. For instance, in March 2023, the FDA granted market authorization for Bioretec Ltd's revolutionary RemeOsTM trauma screw, which will be utilized for the repair of bone fractures in line with the clinical study. Bioretec Ltd. is a pioneer in bioresorbable orthopedic implants. The United States, the world's largest single market for orthopedic trauma products, is where bioresorbable metal implants were initially introduced and are now solely offered by Bioretec. By making conventional titanium and steel implants superfluous, the RemeOsTM trauma screw promises to do away with the requirement for implant removal surgery. RemeOsTM strengthens the value offered for patients with ankle fractures while assisting orthopedic clinics in attaining their operational and healthcare objectives. Thereby, driving the market growth.

Orthopedic Trauma Devices Market: Challenges

Stringent regulatory approval poses a challenge to market growth

Devices for orthopedic trauma might take an extended period and funds to receive regulatory clearance. Before their products can enter the market, manufacturers must adhere to strict regulations and go through significant testing, which can delay product introductions. Thus, the stringent regulatory approval poses a major challenge to the market growth during the forecast period.

Orthopedic Trauma Devices Market: Segmentation

The global Orthopedic Trauma Devices industry is segmented based on type, material, end user, and region.

Based on the type, the global market is bifurcated into internal fixators and external fixators. The external fixators segment is expected to capture the largest market share over the forecast period. Medical devices known as external fixators are used to immobilize and stabilize broken bones, dislocated joints, and soft tissue injuries without internal support. They are made up of surgically implanted rods or pins made of metal or carbon fiber that are placed into the bone on each side of the fracture. These pins are attached to an external frame that maintains the bones in the proper alignment so that they may mend properly. External fixators are essential medical devices used in orthopedic trauma treatment because they offer patients with severe injuries and fractures instant stabilization and support. They help patients recover more quickly and with fewer problems due to the advancements made possible by their ongoing research and improvement. Thereby, driving the segment expansion.

Based on the material, the global orthopedic trauma devices market is bifurcated into metallic and bioabsorbable.

Based on the end user, the orthopedic trauma devices industry is bifurcated into hospitals, ambulatory centers, orthopedic & trauma centers, and others. The hospital segment is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period. There are more hospitals, which results in shorter wait times for patients and better hospital infrastructure along with appropriate care for trauma injuries. Increasing government funding is being provided to hospitals for the provision of equipment and fair reimbursement practices. Thereby, driving the segment growth.
