The global external fixators market size was valued at USD 2.10 Bn in 2021 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.5% from 2023 to 2030. External fixators are orthopedic devices used to stabilize and hold bones and joints in place during the healing process. These fixators are attached to the skin with pins or wires and are connected externally to the affected limb bone or bones. They are commonly used to stabilize fractures, dislocated bones, and other bone injuries of limbs such as arms and legs. The growing number of trauma and accident cases across the world is a major factor which is expected to drive the growth of the global external fixators market in the forthcoming years. Additionally, increasing prevalence of bone-related diseases such as osteoporosis is also anticipated to boost demand for these fixators over the forecast period.
Market Dynamics:
The global external fixators market is driven by the rising number of road accidents and trauma cases globally. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), around 1.35 million people die due to road accidents each year across the globe. Moreover, growing geriatric population that is more prone to bone fractures is also positively impacting the market growth. However, high cost of these fixators and complications associated with fixation such as pin tract infection are expected to hamper market growth to some extent. On the flip side, the ongoing development of medical device innovating external fixator designs for better treatment is estimated to present lucrative opportunities over the forecast period.
