当レポートでは、世界の小児用整形外科用固定具市場について調査分析し、市場力学、業界分析、市場分析、競合情勢など、体系的な情報を提供しています。
The global pediatric orthopedic immobilization market size was valued US$ XX million in 2021 and is estimated to reach US$ XX million by 2029, growing at a CAGR of XX % during the forecast period (2022-2029).
Immobilization is the process of restricting movement by using a splint, cast, or brace to hold a joint or bone in place. It keeps an injured area from moving during surgeries, operations, or the healing process. Immobilization products limit the movement of the targeted body parts, allowing the child to recuperate.
Innovation in the Orthopedic Immobilization technology in pediatrics by the market players is expected to drive market growth.
OrthoHeal is one of the country's most promising med-tech businesses, focusing on orthopedic medical equipment. OrthoHeal employs current technology to produce devices and products that may provide various new solutions for patients, resulting in improved care. For instance, FlexiOH, The Next Generation Orthopedic Immobilization Technology, is a first-of-its-kind orthopedic immobilizer that is rigid enough to hold the fractured portion in place while allowing for optimal skin ventilation. FlexiOH is a wearable material that is easy to apply to damaged areas. Light treatment completes the curing process and makes the FlexiOH firm after wearing. Depending on the size of the FlexiOH immobilizer, this operation takes about 3-10 minutes. FlexiOH can be removed after the course of therapy without using any other external cast cutter or spreader. Moreover, the Radiolucency of FlexiOH short arm cast shows that it does not interfere with radiological imaging and diagnosis. Thus, from the above statements, the market is expected to drive market growth.
Risks and complications associated with Orthopedic Immobilization are expected to hamper the market growth.
Immobilization will necessitate extensive periods of bed rest for some children, such as those in traction. Skin sores (decubitus ulcers) and skin infections can arise by lying in one posture in bed for a lengthy period. An accumulation of fluid in the lungs or an infection can also result from prolonged bed rest ( pneumonia ). An infection of the urinary tract can also occur due to prolonged bed rest. Blood clots might form in the damaged area on occasion.
Moreover, Immobility can also cause psychological stress. A child restricted to a bed with a traction device may become frustrated, bored, and perhaps even depressed, irritable, and withdrawn. Thus, the market is expected to get hampered in the forecast period from the above statements.
The COVID-19 pandemic has moderately impacted healthcare systems and the market. The pandemic has had a substantial impact on daily orthopedic practice. Surgical indications have been reformed, with elective cases being postponed as soon as possible and urgent procedures requiring special care, particularly in suspected or COVID-19+ patients. It has significantly influenced inpatient management, necessitating a dedicated staff, patient isolation, and visitation restrictions. On the other hand, outpatient visits have been curtailed to diminish contact between patients and hospital workers, with significant implications for post-operative care quality and the human side of medical practice.
Additionally, a pandemic interrupts the supply chain and process. Many companies will vary to other geographic regions to ensure that products remain available and protect their supply chain. Thus, from the above statements, the market got affected, and it is expected to gain traction quickly with the resumption of the economic activities.
The ankle and foot orthosis segment is expected to dominate in 2021. The segment benefits because of the increasing prevalence of Cerebral palsy among children. The most prevalent motor disability in children is cerebral palsy (CP). Cerebral palsy is a condition that affects physical movement and coordination. Cerebral palsy is the most frequent physical disability among children in Australia. For instance, about 500,000 children under 18 currently have Cerebral Palsy.
Moreover, about two to three children out of every 1,000 have Cerebral Palsy (United States studies have yielded rates as low as 2.3 per 1,000 children to as high as 3.6 per 1,000 children), and about 10,000 babies are born each year to develop Cerebral Palsy. Therefore, ankle-foot-orthosis (or AFO) is the most popular type of orthosis used to aid children with cerebral palsy. AFOs are made-to-measure devices covering the foot, ankle, and lower leg. The AFO's design and purpose vary depending on the needs and goals of each individual. Still, they typically include supporting or correcting incorrect limb alignment, preventing deformity, providing a secure platform for sitting and standing and allowing a safer and more efficient walking pattern. Children with other diseases, such as spina bifida, developmental delay, or CTEV, also wear AFOs. Orthotists collaborate with the client, family, and other multidisciplinary team members to find the best AFO to help each child achieve their individual goals. Thus, the market segment is expected to hold the largest market share in the forecast period from the above statements.
In 2021, North America accounted for the highest revenue share. The increasing prevalence of sports injuries, rising orthopedic surgeries, technological advancement in the devices, adequate reimbursement policies for the devices and the presence of key market players in the region are some factors the market is expected to boost in the forecast period. For instance, in the U.S., about 30 million children and teens participate in organized sports, and more than 3.5 million injuries each year, which cause some loss of time participation, are experienced by the participants. Almost one-third of all injuries incurred in childhood are sports-related injuries. By far, the most common injuries are sprains and strains. Moreover, basketball causes the most injuries compared to any other team sport. Young people and adults who play basketball are exposed to various injuries, including fractures, facial injuries, deep thigh bruises, ankle sprains and knee injuries.
Additionally, the use of current technologies to develop orthoses has been proposed. Positives are obtained using a 3D scanner, orthoses are designed in 3D modeling software, and the final product is manufactured using additive manufacturing technology. This process has been reverse-engineered and confirmed with data from a proper 3D scanning device using appropriate software. Therefore, it has increased the demand for the devices. Thus, the North American region is expected to hold the largest market share in the forecast period from the above statements.
Major key players in the pediatric orthopedic immobilization market are: Boundless Biomechanical Bracing Inc., Orthomerica Products, Inc., Boston Orthotics & Prosthetics, Prim, Tender, SureStep, Fillauer LLC, Ottobock, Allard USA Inc., Hebei OSKY Medical Instrument Co., Ltd.
Boundless Biomechanical Bracing Inc. was founded in 1988 and headquartered in Canada is a privately held company. It assesses patients and works with allied health professionals to develop suitable orthotic solutions, design, fabricate, and fit custom-made orthoses or off-the-shelf orthopedic devices, and custom bracing for several different chronic and acute foot problems to arthritic disorders, cerebral palsy, stroke and sports injuries.
Cranial Orthoses: Cranial remoulding orthoses focus on redirecting cranial growth to increase symmetry in infants. Protective helmets/orthoses are prescribed to prevent head injury due to falls, self-injury behaviour, and post-surgical trauma.
