Factors Affecting the Growth of the Upper Limb Prosthetics Industry:

  • Technological Advancements:

Innovations, such as robotics, artificial intelligence (AI), and material science, benefit in improving the design, functionality, and user experience of prosthetic devices. Myoelectric control systems, which utilize sensors to detect electrical impulses from the user's muscles, enable precise and natural movements of the prosthetic limb. Additionally, advancements in gesture recognition and machine learning (ML) algorithms refine the control and functionality of these devices. Research in osseointegration, where prosthetic devices are directly implanted into the bone, provides a more natural and durable connection, increasing comfort and range of motion​.

  • Increasing Incidence of Injuries and Amputations:

The rising number of accidents, trauma cases, and sports injuries worldwide is catalyzing the demand for upper limb prosthetics. Increasing incidences of conditions like osteosarcoma and other bone disorders are impelling the market growth. Moreover, the prevalence of diabetes and peripheral arterial disease can lead to severe complications resulting in amputations. These factors collectively contribute to a larger population requiring prosthetic solutions. There is a rise in demand for advanced prosthetic devices that can offer improved functionality and quality of life.

  • Growing Geriatric Population:

The rising demand for upper limb prosthetics among the geriatric population is impelling the market growth. The prevalence of age-related conditions, such as osteoporosis, arthritis, and diabetes, is leading to a higher incidence of limb amputations​. Older adults are more prone to injuries and chronic illnesses that necessitate the use of prosthetic devices. The increasing need for mobility and independence among the geriatric population is contributing to the market growth. Moreover, advancements in medical technology are improving the quality and functionality of prosthetic limbs, making them more appealing to older users.
