Rising Cases of Musculoskeletal and Neurological Disorders Fuel North America Surgical Navigation Systems Market
According to the National Safety Council 2023 report, musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are pervasive, affecting nearly one-quarter of the global population, causing tendonitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, ruptured or herniated discs, and sprains. Moreover, the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) report revealed that nearly 1.71 billion people lived with musculoskeletal conditions involving low back pain, neck pain, fractures, osteoarthritis, amputations, and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in 2019. The rising prevalence of musculoskeletal conditions varies by age and diagnosis, affecting people of all ages worldwide. Therefore, there is a high demand for surgical navigation systems intended for orthopedic surgery. These systems are among the most powerful and enabling tools for surgeons. Surgical navigation systems analyze pre- and post-operative data in multiple versions using augmented reality (AR) to improve clinical outcomes of orthopedic surgeries. For example, visualization systems allow surgeons to take suitable positions during surgeries without excessive exposure to X-ray radiation. For instance, in March 2023, Stryker launched the"Ortho Q Guidance System" that enables advanced surgical planning and guidance intended for hip and knee procedures for the benefit of surgeons. Ortho Q was explicitly designed for orthopedic customers to enhance orthopedic surgeons' capability for proper precision while performing surgeries. The product includes features such as Implant Agnostic Software, Triathlon Implant Dedicated Software, and Small Footprint.Further, the WHO report in 2023 states that at least 1 in 3 people of all ages will suffer from neurological disorders once in their lifetime, making it the highest among all noncommunicable diseases. Navigation systems for neurological procedures assist in a range of procedures, from intracranial tumor resections to frameless biopsies and from pedicle screw placement to spinal stabilization. For example, in skull openings (small craniotomies), neuronavigation systems display anatomical structures and track the virtual axis of surgical instruments.
Medtronic provides innovative surgical navigation systems and related products for neurosurgery, spinal surgery, and cranial surgery. Its StealthStation S8 Surgical Navigation System comprises an intuitive interface that aids advanced visualization to navigate neurosurgery procedures. The system provides optical and electromagnetic (EM) tracking capabilities with the help of external devices such as microscopes and ultrasound, thus acting as a powerful tool for neurosurgical procedures. Therefore, the need for effective surgical treatments for orthopedic and neurosurgery with the rising cases of musculoskeletal and neurological disorders, coupled with innovative product launches by top companies, propels the adoption of surgical navigation systems globally.
