Prosthetics & Orthotics Market Report 2025

This Prosthetics & Orthotics report covers market characteristics, size and growth, segmentation, regional and country breakdowns, competitive landscape, market shares, trends and strategies for this market. It traces the market’s historic and forecast market growth by geography.

The prosthetics & orthotics market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $8.39 billion in 2024 to $8.87 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rising prevalence of disabilities and amputations, advancements in materials and manufacturing techniques, increasing awareness and acceptance of prosthetics, healthcare infrastructure development, growth in sports and rehabilitation.

The prosthetics & orthotics market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $11.24 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to customized and patient-specific prosthetic solutions, integration of ai and robotics in prosthetics, sustainable and eco-friendly prosthetic materials, expansion in pediatric prosthetics and orthotics, adoption of telehealth for orthotic services. Major trends in the forecast period include neurological-controlled prosthetics, regulatory compliance in prosthetic safety and standards, smart prosthetics with sensory feedback, personalized prosthetic solutions for individual needs, transparency in prosthetic pricing and insurance.

The rise in sports injuries and road accident incidents is a significant factor driving the prosthetics and orthotics market. Distracted driving and excessive speeding contribute to road accidents, leading to various disabilities in injured individuals, which necessitate the use of prosthetics and orthotics for rehabilitation and to restore normal daily activities. For example, a report released by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in April 2024 indicated that in 2022, distracted driving accounted for the deaths of 3,308 people and resulted in approximately 289,310 injuries from crashes. Moreover, one of the primary causes of sports injuries is athletes’ continuous participation in a single sport throughout the year, which leads to a higher incidence of injuries. Additionally, the National Security Council, a nonprofit safety advocacy organization in the US, reported that in 2022, emergency departments treated 3.6 million individuals for injuries related to sports and recreational equipment. Consequently, the growing number of sports injuries and road accident cases is projected to increase the demand for prosthetics and orthotics during the forecast period.

The growth of the elderly population is anticipated to boost the prosthetics and orthotics market. With individuals aged 65 and above considered part of the elderly population, this demographic is more susceptible to conditions such as osteoporosis and arthritis, leading to mobility issues. Prosthetics and orthotics play a crucial role in enhancing the quality of life for the elderly by providing support and assistance with movement. According to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, adults aged 65 and above in the United States account for around 16.9% of the total population, with more than 56 million individuals. The older population is expected to reach more than 73.1 million by 2030. Therefore, the increase in the elderly population is a key driver of the prosthetics and orthotics market.

Technological advancement is becoming a prominent trend in the prosthetics and orthotics market. Major companies in this sector are actively incorporating next-generation technologies such as automation, artificial intelligence (AI), microprocessors, neuromuscular signal technology, and sensory control into their products and services. This integration aims to provide more natural motions and functions, offering enhanced mobility solutions. For example, Ossur, an Iceland-based orthotics and prosthetics company, launched the POWER KNEE in February 2022. This is the first actively powered microprocessor prosthetic knee, offering active assistance and adaptability to different activities and surfaces.

Strategic partnerships are playing a vital role in the prosthetics and orthotics market, with companies collaborating to develop advanced solutions. In June 2023, Fillauer, a US-based orthotic and prosthetic innovation company, introduced the Myo/One Electrode system in partnership with Coapt. This streamlined and waterproof system is designed to reduce trial and error, addressing the needs of individuals with limb differences or mobility challenges. Such partnerships aim to provide more advanced and user-friendly solutions in the orthotics and prosthetics field.

In August 2022, Össur, an Iceland-based company specializing in orthopaedics, acquired Naked Prosthetics, a US-based company providing finger prostheses. The undisclosed acquisition strengthens Össur's global upper-limb product portfolio and addresses the needs of patients with finger and partial hand loss.
