Market Growth Factors

As the number of people participating in sports has increased, so have the demand for orthopedic soft tissue repair. In the United States, an estimated 30 million children were participating in organized sports in 2022 according to the National Athletic Trainers' Association. More athletes means more sports-related injuries. More than 3.5 million sports injuries occur annually in the U.S. In a Canadian study, injury rates of between 12.7 and 33.1 injuries per 100 participants per year were recorded for contact sports based on different sports. The increase in the number of ligament and tendon reconstructions and tendon repairs drives demand for the market.

Furthermore, a geriatric population that grows and people with obesity that increase also cause the market to grow. The World Health Organization reported in 2020 that the population of people aged 60 years and above expects to increase from 1 billion in 2020 toward 1.4 billion in 2030. The count of people age 60 and over should reach 2.1 billion by 2050; this is twice as many. The population 80 and older will triple to 426 million. According to a 2023 WHO report, as of 2014 8.5% of people aged 18 years or older have diabetes and diabetes mortality has been increasing. Obesity increases the risk of both developing a soft tissue injury and being affected by osteoarthritis. Obese individuals are 20 times more likely to have a total knee replacement. As such, the demand for repairs is likely to increase.

Another factor contributing to the growth of the market is the advancement of technology. Less intrusive methods of treatment, such as arthroscopy, are less traumatic for the body and have shorter recovery times. For example, in July 2023, Smith+Nephew launched its REGENETEN bioinductive implant for rotator cuff repair in India that helps induce new tendon-like tissue to be formed via an arthroscopic small incision. A second example is the DRPX wrist fracture plate from Orthopedic Implant Company (OIC) cleared by US FDA with the objective of decreasing soft tissue impingement via novel materials and design. However, continuing R&D, increasing demand, and the introduction of new products are helping the orthopedic soft tissue repair segment.

Market Segmentation

By Procedure:

• Cruciate Ligaments Repair: This procedure commonly reconstructs torn anterior cruciate ligaments (ACL) often incurred in sports, maintaining constant demand due to sports injury prevalence.
• Rotator Cuff Repair: Targeting a group of muscles and tendons stabilizing the shoulder joint, tears are frequent among older adults and athletes, with demand driven by an aging population and sports participation.
• Lateral Epicondylitis: Also known as tennis elbow, this is tendon inflammation on the elbow's outer side; treatments vary from conservative to surgical interventions.
• Achilles Tendinosis Repair
• Pelvic Organ Prolapse
• Gluteal Tendon Repair
• Hip Arthroscopy
• Biceps Tenodesis
• Others

By Injury Location:
