Small Joint Reconstructive Implants Market Highlights

Market Segmentation

Insight by Type

On the basis of Type, the global small joint reconstructive implants market is categorized into foot and ankle, hand and wrist, and staple fixation. The largest share in the market is held by the hand and wrist category primarily due to the increasing number of sports injuries and the advancements in the technology leading to the easy operability for hands and wrist. 

Insight by Material

Based on material, the small joint reconstructive implants market is segmented into metal and polymer. Among the two, metal has been the most commonly used material for reconstructive implants. However, the demand for polymer-based implants is also increasing at a considerable rate as polymer implants are easier to manufacture depending on their use.

Insight by End User

Based on end-user, the small joint reconstructive implants market is segmented into hospitals and ambulatory surgical centers. The hospital remains the largest stakeholder in the small joint reconstructive implants as most of these surgeries are performed in hospitals. On the other hand, ASCs are gradually gaining traction for these surgeries as these centers tend to save cost and are improving health outcomes for the patients as compared to the inpatients.

Industry Dynamics

Trends

The shifting patient from hospitals to ASCs for reconstructive surgeries is the key trend witnessed in the market. Healthcare providers, payers, and patients are recognizing the importance of outpatient care which saves the cost and reduces the burden on hospitals. Another key trend witnessed in the market is the increasing number of collaboration and partnerships in the industry.

Rising incidence of joint-related disorders: Conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and traumatic injuries contribute to the demand for small joint reconstructive implants as a treatment option.

Technological advancements: Advancements in implant materials, designs, and surgical techniques have led to improved implant longevity, better functional outcomes, and reduced postoperative complications.

Aging population: The aging population is more prone to joint-related disorders, leading to an increased need for small joint reconstructive surgeries and implants.

Increasing awareness and demand for minimally invasive procedures: Patients prefer minimally invasive surgical techniques for joint reconstruction, which offer faster recovery, reduced scarring, and lower risk of complications.

Growing healthcare expenditure: The overall increase in healthcare spending, along with advancements in medical infrastructure, supports the development and adoption of small joint reconstructive implants.

Sports-related injuries: The prevalence of sports injuries involving small joints, such as those in athletes and active individuals, drives the demand for reconstructive implants.

Expansion of orthopedic clinics and ambulatory surgical centers: The establishment of specialized orthopedic clinics and ambulatory surgical centers has facilitated easy access to joint reconstructive surgeries, boosting market growth.

Growth Drivers

Global small joint reconstructive implants market has been driven by several key factors, predominantly due to the increasing prevalence of orthopaedic conditions, and increasing demand for minimally invasive surgeries. Orthopaedic conditions such as arthritis, osteoporosis, and bone degenerative diseases are on rise which creates demand for the small joint reconstructive implants. According to the WHO, Osteoarthritis is already one of the ten most disabling diseases in developed countries. Worldwide estimates are that 9.6% of men and 18.0% of women aged over 60 years have symptomatic osteoarthritis. 

Also, the older generation is more prevalent to orthopaedic conditions; therefore an increase in number of geriatric population also leads to the growth in the market. For instance, according to WHO, globally in 2010 approximately 524 million people were aged 65 years and older, and is expected to reach 1.5 billion in 2050. Moreover, technological advancements in surgical imaging and robotic-assisted surgeries across the globe are propelling the demand for small joint reconstructive implants.

Restraints
High cost of reconstructive surgery and availability of alternative treatment options limit the growth of the global small joint reconstructive implants market.
