According to the statistics of the Arthritis Foundation, in 2017, an estimated 30.8 million adults were found to be suffering from osteoarthritis (OA). The prevalence of OA increases with age and is seen in up to 80% of people, over the age of 65, in high-income countries. Also, according to the World Population Ageing in 2019, at the global level life expectancy at birth has reached 72.3 years, with women on average living five years longer than men 74.7 years and 69.9 years, respectively. This rise in life expectancies and age-related comorbidities are the factors resulting in the growth of geriatric orthopedic surgical procedures. Lately, there has been an increase in the percentage of the aging population worldwide, especially in developing nations. This factor is anticipated to have a positive impact on the growth of the market.

In addition, the rising number of sports-related injuries around the world has also increased the demand for technological innovations in orthopedic surgeries. For instance, according to the National Safety Council (NSC), in 2017, 526,000 injuries were reported due to personal exercise, 500,000 players were injured due to basketball, 457000 due to bicycling, and 341,000 due to football. NSC also reported that 199,000 swimming injuries were treated in the emergency room in 2017. Spine, shoulder, head, and knee injuries accounted for more than 50% of these total injuries. Hence, owing to all the aforementioned factors the market is expected to propel at high growth rates. However, the reimbursement policies and excise tax on medical devices coupled with the consolidation of the hospitals and cost-containment pressures are expected to be the major restraint for the market growth.
