Global Foot & Ankle Braces & Support Market Research Report

The global foot & ankle braces and support market is driven by the rise in sports injuries, increasing incidences of road accidents, and rise in rate of diabetes, which leads to the deterioration of foot-ankle area with large sores or infections due to poor blood circulation. The aging population is also a considerable driver for these markets, since aging population shows considerable decrease in bone strength, fracture incidence, and non-union of fractures, among others. It is estimated that the foot-ankle extremity market will grow substantially in the coming decade, owing to advances in technology such as microprocessor based joints, greater battery life, and additional shock absorption.

The report analyzes the market of devices by 2 segments, such as soft braces and hinged braces. Both these segments experienced a positive growth till 2012, due to an increased awareness for procedures and sophisticated diagnostic techniques.

The global market also includes two other segments namely, the foot-ankle prosthetics and bracing devices market. The foot-ankle prosthetics has gained a significant amount of traction since the introduction of technologically advanced devices and materials such as the carbon fiber, microprocessor controlled, and hydraulic controlled prosthetic feet. The bracing segment consists of a large range of devices utilized for supporting ankle joints to provide stability and comfort during movement. The devices are available for minor strains and twists, along with heavy duty braces for post-operative recuperation.

The procedure volume growth is significantly higher in Brazil, India, China, Japan, and Mexico because of fast disease progression, higher prevalence, improving healthcare infrastructure, economic growth, broadening insurance coverage, expanding private healthcare sector, and increasing awareness amongst people. In North America and Europe, the rising rates of obese population have been driving the procedure growth but region-wide efforts to cut healthcare cost, thereby decreasing the reimbursements, is compelling patients to opt for alternative surgeries such as arthroscopic debridement and MIS.
