GLOBAL ELBOW REPLACEMENT MARKET SIZE AND SHARE ANALYSIS - GROWTH TRENDS AND FORECASTS (2024-2031)

Regional Analysis

Global Elbow Replacement Market Regional Insights:

• North America has established itself as the dominant region in the global elbow replacement market. The partial elbow replacement sub-segment accounts for the largest share within the elbow replacement in type segment in North America. Partial elbow replacement procedures are generally preferred by both surgeons and patients in the region as they allow the preservation of the patient's natural elbow joint. In April 2020, according to a study by the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, over the past 5 years there has been a 15% increase in the number of partial elbow replacement procedures performed in the U.S. as compared to total elbow replacement. This trend can be attributed to advancements in surgical techniques and implant design that have made partial elbow replacement a viable option even for patients with complex fractures and arthritis damage localized to one portion of the elbow. For example, companies, such as Zimmer Biomet, have developed innovative modular partial elbow systems that offer surgeons greater flexibility in reconstructing the elbow joint.
• Asia Pacific has emerged as the fastest-growing regional market for elbow replacement. The partial elbow replacement sub segment has emerged as the leading segment for the elbow replacement market in the Asia Pacific region. According to data released by national joint registries of countries in the countries  such as Australia and New Zealand, the rate of partial elbow replacements has steadily increased over the past 5 years. Partial elbow replacements are gaining prominence as they allow surgeons to replace only the affected or damaged parts of the elbow joint. This preservation of native bone and tissues enables faster recovery and return to daily activities. Younger and more active patients in Southeast Asian countries especially prefer partial replacements to maintain maximum elbow motion.
