These devices are applied in treatment of fractures in long bones as well as in lower and upper extremities including spine, leg, joints, knees and others.
Increased pervasiveness of osteoporosis coupled with high occurrence of road accidents are major factors driving the growth of trauma devices market. Technological advancements such as use of biodegradable materials and orthobiologics is also fueling the market expansion. According to 2017 report by International Osteoporosis Foundation, around 8.9 million fractures are caused by osteoporosis annually. The Swiss-based foundation further stated that osteoporotic fractures occur in almost 1 in 5 men and 1 in 3 women by the age of 50 years. Also, the number of patients with hip fractures totaled to 1.6 million in 2020 and is expected to reach 4.5 million by the year 2050. All these stats and rising cases of osteoporotic fractures is fostering the demand for trauma devices.
