Rehabilitation Robots MarketSize and Trends

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in 2016, around 200,000 people suffered from spinal cord injury in the U.S. and the annual incidence rate is estimated at 15-40 new cases per million people, accounting for around 12,000 to 20,000 new cases per year. Growing geriatric population and growing prevalence of conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, spinal cord injury, dementia, cerebral palsy, and other age-related disabilities play a major role in driving growth of the global market for robotic rehabilitation. The geriatric population is highly susceptible to falls and injury thus, requiring constant assistance. This, in turn, is expected to fuel growth of the rehabilitation robots market.

According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), around 52.5 million adults in the U.S. suffered from arthritis i.e. around 23% of the total adult population, in 2013. This number is expected to grow over the forecast period, in turn creating a highly conducive environment for growth of the global rehabilitation robots market.
