The global medical implants market is growing due to several factors such as, growing research and development activities, increasing incidence of chronic diseases, and advancement in product by manufacturers.
Increasing prevalence of chronic disease and rising R&D activities are expected to drive the market growth.
An increasing number of chronic diseases is primarily driving the global medical implants market in recent years and is expected to remain the same over the forecast period. For instance, according to the Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, more than 20,000 pacemakers are implanted each year in India and the numbers are growing annually.
According to Ohio State University 2020, more than 600,000 knee replacement surgeries are performed in the United States every year which is nearly double the surgeries performed during 2011, technological advancements are improving the accuracy and reducing the surgery time and recovery time.
Increasing research and developments in medical technology, surging geriatric population are increasing the demand for global implants over the forecast period. For instance, in Jan 2021, Medtronic announced that DiamondTemp ablation system got approved by U.S.FDA for treatment of patients that have recurrent, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. It is the 1st FDA approved irrigated radiofrequency ablation system that is temperature controlled.
High cost of medical implants is expected to hamper the market growth.
High cost associated with these devices is the major factor that is restraining the growth of market. Reimburse issue and stringent regulations are the also the factors of concern that can restrict the growth of market.

Orthopedic implants segment is expected to hold the largest market share in global medical implants market
Based on application global medical implants market is segmented into orthopedic implants, cardiac implants, spinal implants, dental implants, ophthalmic implants, and others. Orthopedic implants dominate the global medical implants market and are anticipated to remain the same over the forecast period.
Orthopedic implants hold the highest market share and are expected to remain the same over the forecast period due to the increasing number of orthopedic implant-related injuries. According to American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons, in United States, there is an increase in knee and hip replacement injuries by 101%, and is expected to increase further.
Cardiac implants hold the second largest market share due to the increasing prevalence of cardiac implant-related disorders. For instance, according to the Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research in 2019, currently, worldwide there are more than 3 million people with a pacemaker or other cardiac rhythm management device and each year 700,000 new pacemakers are implanted.
Based on material type, the global medical implants market is categorized into metallic, ceramic, and polymers. The ceramic segment holds a significant share as they are distinct from metallic and polymers. These are used in the repair and reconstruction of diseased or damaged parts of the musculoskeletal system and are useful as joint or tissue replacements.
North America region holds the largest market share in the global medical implants market
The global medical implants market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, South America and Middle East and Africa.
North America dominates the global medical implants due to technological advancements and an increasing number of implant-related surgeries. For instance, according to American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons in 2019, in United States, 860,080 hip and knee replacement procedures were performed by 4,755 surgeons at 654 institutions, which is expected to increase by 1.2X times over the forecast period.
Europe holds the second largest market share as the usage of implants is increasing. According to The Bone and Joint Organization, 3.1 million hip and 2.5 million knee replacements are registered in Europe since 1975. Asia Pacific is registering the fastest CAGR due to the increasing number of manufacturers and key players, technological advancements, various novel product launches, increasing population, rising awareness about these products in countries such as India, China, and Japan.
For instance, in Mar 2022, Abbott announced that Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare approved the reimbursement coverage expansion for FreeStyle Libre System. These kind of initiatives will lead to fastest growth of medical implant in this region.
