MediPoint: Trauma Fixation - South American Analysis and Market Forecasts

MediPoint: Trauma Fixation - South American Analysis and Market Forecasts

Summary

Traumatic injury patients that come into the Emergency Room (ER) experience orthopedic injury in the form of fractures 60% to 65% of the time, based on GlobalData's conversations with key opinion leaders. Of this population, 45%–50% are operable and require fracture repair techniques in the form of external or internal fixation. As the global population continues to grow in the emerging markets, with overcrowding and economic growth, some of the drivers for trauma fixation include motor vehicle accidents and aging. GlobalData's analysis shows that while the orthopedics implant market is mature, where products have become commodities, trauma fixation is one that has room for more technological development and adoption.

Brazil accounts for a substantial part of the world market, and is extremely dependent on imported products. Brazil posts some of the strongest growth rates for both internal fixation and external fixation. Drivers in this emerging market include the growth in scooter usage and cars causing motor vehicle accidents more frequently.
