Orthopedic devices are medical instruments and implants intended to support or enhance the function of bones, joints, and muscles. They are utilized to treat injuries, deformities, and conditions affecting the musculoskeletal system, thereby improving mobility and reducing pain.
The orthopedic devices market encompasses various types of devices and equipment, including joint reconstruction devices, spinal surgery devices, trauma fixation devices, orthobiologics devices, arthroscopy devices, orthopedic braces and support devices, craniomaxillofacial (CMF) devices, and orthopedic prosthetics. Spinal surgery devices, for instance, are utilized in spine surgeries to stabilize the spine and prevent motion while facilitating fusion between two or more vertebrae. Expenditure in this field may be classified as either public or private, and the products involved include instruments/equipment and disposables. End-users of orthopedic devices include hospitals and clinics, diagnostic laboratories, and others.

This orthopedic devices market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The orthopedic devices market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $51.45 billion in 2024 to $55.08 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.1%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to aging population, prevalence of osteoarthritis, rise in orthopedic procedures, regulatory approvals and standards, focus on patient outcomes and quality of life, increased awareness of joint health.
The orthopedic devices market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $67.05 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.0%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growing value-based healthcare models, focus on sustainability, regenerative approaches for joint preservation, enhanced implant coatings and materials. Major trends in the forecast period include smart orthopedic devices, robotics in orthopedic surgery, customized orthopedic bracing, nanotechnology in orthopedics, telemedicine in orthopedic care.
The increasing prevalence of arthritis is anticipated to drive the growth of the orthopedic device market in the coming years. Arthritis refers to the discomfort or disease affecting the joints, characterized by inflammation or swelling in one or more joints. The use of orthopedic devices can be beneficial for individuals suffering from arthritis, as they help alleviate pain, improve mobility, and enhance overall functionality. For example, in February 2024, the National Center for Health Statistics, a US-based government agency, reported that in 2022, the age-adjusted prevalence of diagnosed arthritis among adults was 18.9%, with women (21.5%) being more likely to be affected than men (16.1%). The prevalence notably increased with age, rising from 3.6% in adults aged 18-34 to 53.9% in those aged 75 and older. Therefore, the rising prevalence of arthritis is set to boost the orthopedic device market.
The growing patient pool resulting from the increasing geriatric population worldwide has significantly contributed to the growth of the orthopedic devices market during the historical period. Orthopedic devices are frequently employed to address musculoskeletal problems and age-related conditions in older adults. For instance, in January 2024, a report from the US-based Pew Research Center indicated that the geriatric population was projected to increase by 0.2% in 2024 and by 0.5% in 2054. These factors have heightened the demand for orthopedic products and propelled the market during the historical period.
The development of new drugs and therapies offering alternatives to surgical procedures has limited the orthopedic devices market. Advances in tissue engineering, stem-cell therapy, and treatment alternatives such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections enable patients to avoid surgical interventions for conditions such as arthritis and tendonitis. The increasing preference for these alternative treatment methods has negatively impacted the demand for orthopedic devices, as individuals seek to avoid the risks and complications associated with surgical procedures.
Major companies in the orthopedic devices market are concentrating on creating innovative products, including advanced surgical robotic systems, to improve precision and patient outcomes. They are also incorporating AI technologies to enhance surgical planning and execution. An advanced surgical robotic system is a sophisticated platform that aids surgeons in conducting minimally invasive procedures with greater precision and control. This system includes robotic arms, 3D visualization, and specialized instruments, which contribute to increased accuracy and better patient outcomes. For example, in June 2024, Meril, an India-based medical device firm, introduced the MISSO, which enhances knee replacement surgeries by offering high precision and affordability, lowering costs by around 66%. The product aims to improve patient outcomes and accessibility, especially in smaller hospitals throughout India.
Biodegradable implants are increasingly finding application in trauma and orthopedic surgeries. These implants serve to replace missing biological structures, support damaged biological structures, and enhance existing bone structures. Biodegradable products, including absorbable polymers made of polyglycolic acid and polylactic acid in the form of plates, screws, and pins, are emerging as alternatives to traditional devices such as plates and screws, known for their higher costs. Surgeons are showing a preference for biodegradable implants over conventional ones due to their ability to provide temporary support for bone fractures, degrade at a rate aligning with new tissue formation, eliminate the need for a second surgery, prove highly useful in fracture fixation in children, and result in fewer implant-related infections. For example, Stryker Corporation offers orthobiologics, including bone repair biodegradable products, employed in bone regeneration and healing, soft tissue regeneration, and muscle connection to bone.
