Microelectronic Medical Implants Global Market Report 2024

The microelectronic medical implants market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $41.26 billion in 2023 to $45.52 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.3%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be attributed to factors such as cost efficiency and improved accessibility, the rise in chronic diseases, miniaturization of medical devices, regulatory support, adherence to standards, and the growing acceptance and awareness of microelectronic medical implants.

The microelectronic medical implants market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $66.65 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.0%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to factors such as the rise in lifestyle diseases, continued regulatory support and adherence to standards, a preference among patients for implantable solutions, increased cost efficiency and accessibility, and the impact of an aging population with a higher prevalence of chronic diseases. Major trends expected in the forecast period include the ongoing miniaturization and development of compact designs, the incorporation of wireless connectivity and remote monitoring capabilities, advancements in sensor technology, a focus on improving longevity and reliability of implants, and the use of biocompatible materials for enhanced compatibility within the human body.

The anticipated increase in the prevalence of hearing impairments is poised to drive the growth of the microelectronic medical implants market in the future. Hearing impairment, characterized by an inability to hear as well as those with normal hearing, is a condition often defined by hearing thresholds of 20 dB or better in both ears. Microelectronic medical implants offer a solution to enhance hearing in individuals with severe hearing loss who may not benefit significantly from conventional hearing aids. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), it is projected that by 2050, approximately 2.5 billion people will experience some degree of hearing loss, with at least 700 million requiring hearing rehabilitation. The increasing prevalence of hearing impairments is thus a key driver propelling the growth of the microelectronic medical implant market.

The growing incidence of chronic diseases is expected to play a crucial role in propelling the microelectronic medical implant market forward in the coming years. Chronic diseases, encompassing long-term health conditions such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and neurological disorders, progress slowly over an extended period. The integration of microelectronics into medical implants has revolutionized the management of chronic diseases, providing more personalized and efficient treatment options. In March 2022, the Australian Bureau of Statistics reported that nearly three-quarters of Australians had at least one long-term health concern, with almost half of the general population (46.6% or 11.6 million people) dealing with at least one chronic condition. The increasing incidence of chronic diseases is a significant factor driving the growth of the microelectronic medical implant market.

Technological advancements emerge as a prominent trend gaining traction in the microelectronic medical implant market. Major companies operating in this market are actively developing advanced technologies to enhance their market positions. For example, Cochlear Limited, an Australia-based medical device and microelectronic medical implant company, introduced the Cochlear Nucleus 8 Sound Processor in November 2022. This latest device incorporates advanced hearing technology capable of detecting changes in the user's surroundings and automatically adjusting listening settings. The Nucleus 8 Sound Processor also features an improved ForwardFocus+ function, effectively reducing distracting background noise to enhance the clarity of face-to-face interactions, even in noisy environments.

Strategic partnerships have become a key approach for major companies in the microelectronic medical implant market, facilitating the development of neurostimulator devices. Strategic partnerships involve leveraging mutual strengths and resources to achieve shared benefits and success. In June 2021, Merck KGaA, a Germany-based medical device manufacturing company, announced a partnership with neuroloop GmbH to develop a neurostimulator device complementing existing pharmacological therapy for individuals with chronic inflammatory disorders. The collaboration aims to modify Neuroloop's neurostimulation technology for targeted treatment of chronic inflammatory illnesses, combining neuroloop GmbH's technological expertise with Merck's strengths in material science, regulatory affairs, and clinical expertise in chronic inflammatory conditions.

In May 2021, Medtronic Plc., an Ireland-based medical technology company, acquired Intersect ENT for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition provided Medtronic access to PROPEL and SINUVA, two unique bioabsorbable, steroid-eluting implants for sinus patients. The strategic move aligns with Medtronic's commitment to portfolio management and deployment of resources to support innovation in rapidly expanding medical areas. Intersect ENT, a US-based medical technology company, focuses on advancing the treatment of ear, nose, and throat conditions.
