Prosthetics And Orthotics Market

Prosthetics and orthotics are medical devices used as a replacement or support for limbs and joints. Prosthetics provide an artificial substitute for a missing body part, such as an arm, leg, hand, or foot. Orthotics are used to support, align, prevent, or correct deformities or to improve the function of movable parts of the body. Common orthotics include ankle braces, wrist/hand braces, elbow braces, and knee braces. Prosthetics and orthotics are used due to various reasons such as trauma, wounds, congenital deformities, cancer, and bone tumors among others. These devices assist those with deficiencies to carry out normal daily functions. Technological advancements in materials such as carbon fiber and 3D printing have transformed the prosthetics and orthotics market by producing more lightweight and customized devices.


The global Prosthetics And Orthotics Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 6923.2 Mn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 11% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
