Knee Implants Global Market Report 2024

The knee implants market has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $11.39 billion in 2023 to $11.96 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.0%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be attributed to factors such as the rising aging population, the prevalence of osteoarthritis, advancements in implant materials, increasing acceptance of minimally invasive surgeries, and the implementation of patient awareness and education programs.

The knee implants market is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $14.79 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.4%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the rise in personalized and customized implants, an increase in sports-related injuries, the growing global health expenditure, advancements in robotics-assisted surgery, the rising prevalence of obesity, and a focus on outpatient and ambulatory surgery centers. Key trends expected in the forecast period include the development of patient-specific implants, the promotion of minimally invasive surgery (MIS), the integration of smart implants and IoT technology, the use of biocompatible materials and surface technologies, and a focus on outpatient knee replacement surgery.

The anticipated rise in the prevalence of orthopedic disorders is poised to drive the growth of the knee implants market in the foreseeable future. Orthopedic disorders encompass illnesses or injuries affecting the musculoskeletal system, comprising bones, joints, muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Individuals with orthopedic conditions can alleviate pain and disability by replacing damaged knee joint surfaces with knee implants, making the increasing prevalence of orthopedic disorders a significant driver for the knee implant market. As reported by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, it is projected that 25.9% of the expected total adult population, equivalent to 78.4 million individuals aged 18 and older, will have arthritis by 2040. Furthermore, an additional 34.6 million individuals (43.2% of arthritis-affected adults or 11.4% of all US adults) are predicted to face activity limitations related to arthritis by the same year. Consequently, the surge in orthopedic disorders is fostering the growth of the knee implants market.

The increasing geriatric population is expected to be a driving force behind the growth of the knee implant market in the coming years. The term "geriatric population" refers to the demographic comprising elderly individuals. Aging significantly contributes to the demand for knee implants due to a higher prevalence of osteoarthritis and age-related degenerative changes in knee joints. The elderly population, typically those aged 65 and older, is a substantial portion of this demographic. In November 2022, it was reported by America's Health Rankings that over 55.8 million people aged 65 and above were expected to be living in the United States in 2021, constituting approximately 16.8% of the total population. Thus, the increasing geriatric population is propelling the growth of the knee implant market.

Technological advancements represent a notable trend gaining traction in the knee implants market. Major companies in the knee implants market are directing their efforts toward developing new technologies to maintain their market positions. For instance, in August 2021, Zimmer Biomet, a US-based medical technology company, in collaboration with Canary Medical Inc., a US-based medical data company, introduced the Persona IQ knee implant. It stands as the world's first and only smart knee implant for total knee replacement surgery, combining Zimmer Biomet's established knee implant, Persona The Personalized Knee, with Canary Medical's proprietary implantable canturioTMte tibial extension sensor technology. This technology measures and determines range of motion, step count, walking speed, and other gait metrics.

Major players in the knee implant market are also focusing on innovative products to better cater to the needs of their existing consumers. An example is the Mako Total Knee 2.0, a knee replacement structure that combines Stryker's advanced robotic technology with the clinically effective Triathlon Total Knee System. In March 2023, Stryker Corporation launched Mako Total Knee 2.0, featuring a new streamlined design, customizable workflow, and other important characteristics. Notably, it includes an innovative electronic tensioner enabling physicians to assess knee stability intraoperatively during a total knee arthroplasty (TKA) without additional instrumentation.

In January 2022, Smith+Nephew, a UK-based medical technology company, completed the acquisition of Engage Surgical for $135 million. This strategic move is expected to enhance Smith+Nephew's robotics and real-time intelligence capabilities, particularly for partial knee operations, providing precise alignment. The acquisition aims to expand Smith+Nephew's market share in the US and other markets. Engage Surgical, a US-based knee implant manufacturer, is known for designing the only available cementless partial knee system in the US.
