Pediatric Medical Devices Global Market Report 2024

The pediatric medical devices market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $31.29 billion in 2023 to $33.84 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growing investments in infrastructure, increasing awareness, population growth, government initiatives, and insurance expansion.

The pediatric medical devices market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $46.45 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.2%. The projected expansion during the forecast period can be credited to value-based care models, enhancements in manufacturing procedures, personalized approaches, emphasis on home-based care, and collaborative innovation. Key trends anticipated during this period involve remote monitoring solutions, telemedicine services for pediatrics, wearable health gadgets designed for children, pediatric robotic surgical procedures, and the incorporation of artificial intelligence into pediatric healthcare.

The increasing need for minimally invasive surgical procedures in pediatric care is anticipated to drive the expansion of the pediatric medical devices market in the foreseeable future. These procedures involve utilizing small incisions or natural body openings, alongside specialized instruments and imaging technology, to diagnose, treat, or manage pediatric health conditions with reduced trauma and faster recovery compared to traditional open surgeries. The escalating demand for such procedures stems from technological advancements, which enable safer and more precise interventions while minimizing post-operative complications. Pediatric medical devices play a crucial role in facilitating precise access, visualization, and manipulation of pediatric anatomy during minimally invasive surgeries, ensuring safe and effective treatment with minimal impact on surrounding tissues. For instance, as reported by Washington University in St. Louis in March 2023, the number of operating room cases for minimally invasive surgery increased from 2,208 in 2021 to 2,400 in 2022, indicating a growth of 192 cases within a year. Hence, the rising demand for minimally invasive pediatric surgical procedures is a key driver of growth in the pediatric medical devices market.

Major companies engaged in the pediatric medical devices market are innovating orthopedic implants to cater to the distinct healthcare requirements of pediatric patients, spanning from musculoskeletal disorders to congenital anomalies. Orthopedic implants are medical tools employed to substitute or bolster impaired or absent bone or joint structures within the musculoskeletal system. For instance, in March 2024, OrthoPediatrics Corporation, a US-based medical device enterprise, introduced the RESPONSE Rib and Pelvic Fixation system, customized for pediatric patients grappling with Early Onset Scoliosis (EOS). This comprehensive system encompasses implants, tools, and interconnecting devices, furnishing surgeons with a versatile solution for rib and pelvic fixation, including provisions for patients vulnerable to Thoracic Insufficiency Syndrome. Equipped with features such as a variety of implant choices, sleek designs, and locking mechanisms, this system amplifies precision and adaptability in addressing EOS instances.

In July 2022, OrthoPediatrics Corporation, a US-based medical device company, completed the acquisition of Pega Medical for $33 million. Through this acquisition, OrthoPediatrics Corporation intends to broaden its pediatric orthopedics offerings, thereby extending assistance to a greater number of children with orthopedic conditions. Pega Medical, based in Canada, specializes in the production of pediatric orthopedic implants.
