(PharmaNewsWire.Com, February 16, 2018 ) North America Hip replacement devices Market was worth USD 1.78 billion in 2016 and estimated to be growing at a CAGR of 3.3%, to reach USD 2.09 billion by 2021. A hip replacement is an invasive surgical procedure, used to remove a diseased or fractured hip joint and replace it with an artificial joint or prosthesis. Osteoarthritis is one of the most common factors for hip diseases. Structures within the hip (such as the cartilage or bony joint surfaces) may get damaged due to overuse, trauma, or certain conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis, tumors, and so on. This may lead to degenerative changes within the hip which can lead to osteoarthritis.
The steady growth of the hip replacement implant market is attributed to rising geriatric population, increasing incidences of accidents, and rising prevalence of osteoarthritis. Technological advancements in the field of artificial hip implant resulting in new and innovative products such as mobile bearing hip implant and various material combination implants have increased the mobility and flexibility of the leg. These innovations have also reduced the side effects for artificial implants, thereby augmenting their demand. However, price pressure, risk of complications after surgery, and waiting time for surgery in hospitals are some of the major hindering factors.
