The trauma fixation devices market is expected to witness steady growth, and this is expected to be primarily driven by increasing demand for trauma fixation devices in hospital departments, as well as outpatient surgery.
According to the World Health Organization, 2020, more than 1.35 million people die every year as a result of road traffic crashes and accidents. Road traffic injuries are the leading cause of death among people aged between 15 and 29 years. Every year the lives of more than 1.35 million people are cut short as a result of a road traffic crash. Between 20 and 50 million more people suffer non-fatal injuries, with many incurring a disability as a result of their injury. Hence, these above-stated statistics shows that the increasing number of road injuries and accidents is affecting the global population, which is ultimately increasing the demand for trauma fixation devices in healthcare facilities. The demand for trauma fixation devices is growing due to the advantages of advanced products such as bioresorbable implants, drug-eluting implants, and nano-coated devices.
The other driving factors also include growth in geriatric population, high prevalence of bone degenerative diseases, and increasing cases of sports injuries worldwide.
