Furthermore, rise in the number of diabetes-related amputations fuels the market growth. Individuals living with diabetes are at a higher risk of developing foot complications due to nerve damage, which can lead to chronic ulcers and amputation. Diabetes-related foot complications are one of the most common and severe complications that affect people with diabetes across the globe. Several studies have shown that the risk of amputation could be up to 25 times higher for people with diabetes than a person without the condition. For instance, in the U.S., annually, approximately 154,000 people with diabetes undergo amputation, and diabetes complications cause 80% of non-traumatic lower limb amputations.

Technological advancement in orthotics & prosthetics is expected to boost the market growth over the forecast period. 3D printed prosthetics by Limb Forge are expected to gain market penetration in developing regions due to their cost-effectiveness and ease of usage.

It has been designed to perform various functions, including improved stance release, assisted descent on stairs and ramps, better support while sitting down, and 'Stumble Recovery Plus.' All these functions can be adjusted and controlled via the company's 'Cockpit' app.

 Market Concentration & Characteristics

Market growth stage is high, and pace of the market growth is accelerating. The market is characterized by a moderate-to-high degree of growth due to rising R&D programs, and increased investment in developing prosthetics and orthotics solutions. For instance, in October 2022, researchers from Brown University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology developed sophisticated ways to monitor muscle movements by using a simple set of magnets to make it easier for people with amputations to control their prosthetic limbs.

Prosthetics And Orthotics Market Concentration & Characteristics

The market is characterized by a high degree of innovation due to rapid technological advancements. For instance, in February 2022, Össur introduced its ‘POWER KNEE,’ a microprocessor prosthetic knee designed for people facing above-knee amputation or limb difference. The company has used a motor-powered “smart” prosthesis, which leverages advanced algorithms for detecting patterns in human movement, thus adjusting and learning the user’s rhythm and speed in real time.

Prosthetics and orthotics industry is characterized by a medium level of merger and acquisition (M&A) activity by the leading players. This is due to several factors, including the desire to access new technologies in a rapidly growing market. For instance, in August 2022, Össur acquired Naked Prosthetics, a Washington-based company that provides finger prostheses. The acquisition aims to fulfill the needs of the growing number of patients with finger and partial hand loss. In addition, it helps Össur to strengthen its upper limb product portfolio globally.

The structured regulatory framework for prosthetics and orthotics solutions positively impacts market growth. Data published by WHO reported that according to the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD), Member States must implement effective measures for ensuring personal mobility and promoting accessibility to mobility devices and assistive technologies, including orthoses and prostheses. Over 170 countries have ratified the CRPD since 2006, making it mandatory to ensure availability and affordability of high-quality assistive products such as prostheses and orthoses. In addition, the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) regulates prosthetics and orthotic devices in Australia.

Several market players are adopting this strategy to expand their product portfolio and market their products in different regions. For instance, in January 2023, WillowWood Global LLC, a manufacturer and distributor of prosthetic products, partnered with Reboocon Bionics B.V., a manufacturer of the motorized prosthetic knee. This partnership focused on distribution of products in the U.S. market and R&D collaboration to advance prosthetics technology.

Several market players and research institutes are developing robotic arms which can be used as prosthetics. For instance, in May 2022, University of Minnesota Twin Cities researchers collaborated with industry players. This new development in robotics has enabled amputees to control a robotic arm using their brain signals instead of relying on muscle movements.

Product Type Insights

By product type, market is segmented into orthotics and prosthetics. Orthotics segment accounted for largest revenue share of 71.7% in 2023. Growth of this segment is attributed to rising prevalence of osteoarthritis, increasing incidences of sports injuries, and growing penetration of orthopedic technology. For instance, according to data published by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation in August 2023, currently, 15% of people aged 30 and above suffer from osteoarthritis. It is projected osteoarthritis is expected to affect approximately 1 billion people by 2050. Orthotics segment is further segmented into upper limb, lower limb, and spinal. Upper limb orthotics accounted for the largest share owing to various benefits, such as reduced pain and rapid recovery in terms of movement.

Global Prosthetics And Orthotics market share and size, 2023

Prosthetics segment is expected to register the fastest CAGR during the forecast period. An increase in the disability rate globally is expected to drive the market over the forecast period.

Prosthetics And Orthotics Market Dynamics

Driver: Increasing Prevalence of Arthritis

An increasing incidence of osteoarthritis is one of the key growth drivers of the market. It is the most common form of arthritis and affects people of all ages. According to the Arthritis Foundation, an anticipated 78 million people aged 18 years or above in the U.S. will be diagnosed with arthritis by 2040. Patients suffering from arthritis are the primary target population for orthopedic braces. Hence, the increasing prevalence of this disease is expected to boost the demand for these devices. Rheumatoid arthritis is another common form that affects the joints of the body and can cause muscle pain. According to RheumatoidArthritis.org, in 2016, around 1.3 million of the U.S. population and 1% of the global population were suffering from rheumatoid arthritis. The American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons estimated that 90% of patients suffering from rheumatoid arthritis tend to develop some kind of symptoms in their feet and ankles. Thus, increasing the incidence of these chronic diseases can increase the demand for orthoses and propel market growth.

Driver: Increasing Incidence of Diabetes & Obesity

There is an overall increase in the prevalence of chronic disorders that are known to cause osteoarthritis. Throughout the globe, it is estimated that every 30 seconds one leg is amputated owing to diabetes. According to the CDC, 27.7% of adults who have arthritis are also obese. 33.7% of arthritic adults are also diabetic. According to the American Diabetes Association, there was a 62% increase in minor non-traumatic lower-extremity amputations (NLEA) and a 29% increase in major NLEAs, between 2009 and 2015. According to the American Journal of Managed Care (AJMC), around 82,000 diabetic amputations were performed in California between 2011 and 2017. According to the CDC, in 2017, around 85% of amputations performed on diabetic patients were due to foot ulcers. In addition, diabetes increases the chances of Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD), which is another major cause of amputation.

Restraint: High Cost of Prosthetics

The high cost of prosthetics is one of the major factors limiting the market growth. For instance, the price of a prosthetic leg can range from USD 5,000 to USD 50,000 and even the most expensive prosthetics can withstand only 3 to 5 years of wear & tear before they have to be replaced. Similarly, the cost of upper extremity devices can range from USD 3,000 to USD 30,000 and these devices also have to be replaced after a certain period. The high cost of prosthetics may impede product sales, especially in developing economies, where the overall purchasing power of consumers is low.
