Osteoarthritis is a degenerative disease in which flexible tissues at bone joints get degraded, resulting in severe joint pain. Some of the key factors for the condition including aging population and sedentary lifestyle. Various countries in Europe and other developed countries such as the U.S., are characterized by an increasing proportion of geriatric population residing in these countries. This is presenting a large patient pool suffering from age-related disorders including osteoarthritis.

Growing diagnosis and treatment rates and increasing awareness of available treatment options especially in emerging countries is resulting in an increasing number of patients suffering from the condition, undergoing hip replacement surgeries. Adequate health coverage and reforms in health reimbursement policies for joint replacement procedures are anticipated to propel the demand for hip implants. To provide affordable and quality care to all people, the governments of different countries have launched various health reimbursement schemes for joint replacement surgeries.

• For instance, as per data published by Medical News Today in 2021, hip replacement surgeries are covered under most of the plans provided by Medicare in the U.S.

During the COVID-19 outbreak in 2020, the market experienced a decline in its revenue due to the postponement of non-emergency surgeries. However, the market experienced significant growth in 2021 and 2022 due to the relaxation of the lockdown restrictions and an increase in the number of surgeries.

Hip Replacement Market Trends

Increased Awareness toward Hip Replacement Surgery

The increasing number of hip replacement surgeries have fueled the need for online tools to assist patients post-surgery. Healthcare organizations are swiftly scaling up various programs. The increased awareness regarding online resources is estimated to offer lucrative growth opportunities for the market.

Hip Replacement Market Growth Factors

Increasing Prevalence of Osteoarthritis to Drive the Demand for Hip Implants

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative disorder that causes degradation of the soft tissue covering the bone joints. With time, the severity of this disease increases, resulting in damage to the bone joints such as the knee, hip joints, and others, causing severe pain. Moroever, osteoarthritis is more common in the older population and the severity of the disease increases with growing age.

• For instance, as per data published by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2023, osteoarthritis is more common among older people. Around 70% of the population aged above 55 suffer from osteoarthritis globally. Moreover, with the increasing geriatric population, the prevalence of osteoarthritis is rising significantly.

The increasing prevalence of hip osteoarthritis and the growing geriatric population have been fueling the demand for hip implants. To fulfil this demand, market players have increased their focus on new product launches. For instance, in August 2023, Smith+Nephew launched OR3O Dual Mobility System in India for primary and revision hip arthroplasty.

Therefore, the increasing prevalence of hip osteoarthritis, rising geriatric population, and the increasing focus of market players on new product launches have been fueling the market growth.

Rapid Adoption of Customized Hip Prostheses to Aid the Market Expansion

The market for hip arthroplasty implants is projected to expand with the increasing demand for customized implants for males and females. Since each patient has a unique anatomy, the sizes of implants differ. Many manufacturers are focusing on 3D printing technology for patient-specific implants.

The introduction of 3D printing technology to manufacture orthopedic implants resulted in a huge surge in demand for customized implants. Market players have increased their focus on the development of technologically advanced implants to increase their efficiency. These factors have been increasing the demand for hip implants, thereby fueling the market growth. 

RESTRAINING FACTORS

Lawsuits and Product Recalls of Hip Replacement Devices to Hamper Market Growth

The volume of replacement surgery are rising speedily. However, the complications related to the use of the implant are a major factor that can likely hamper the growth of the global market over the forecast period. The lawsuits claim patients were left with serious side effects due to the device’s defects. The related side effects comprise allergic reactions, metal poisoning, and infections, among others.

Major companies such as Zimmer Biomet have faced various individual lawsuits and class action lawsuits owing to the malfunction of their orthopedic replacement devices. For instance, as of March 2023, there were nearly 344 on-going Stryker replacement lawsuits.

Additionally, significant product recalls of the devices by key players across the globe are estimated to hamper the market growth in the coming years. As per data published by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in March 2021, Stryker issued an Urgent Medical Device Recall notice to customers for a voluntary recall of the Triathlon Total Knee System. Moreover, Zimmer Biomet recorded the highest recalls, followed by Johnson and Johnson Services Inc. and Smith & Nephew.

Hip Replacement Market Segmentation Analysis

By Procedure Analysis

Total Hip Replacement Segment to Witness Remarkable Growth Due to Rise in Arthroplasty Procedures

Based on procedure, the market is segmented into total, partial, and revision & hip resurfacing. In 2023, the total segment dominated the market in 2023 by accounting for a significant portion of the market share.

• For instance, according to an article published in the Rheumatology Advisor, researchers projected that the total annual counts of total hip arthroplasty would increase by 34% in 2020 to 498,000 replacements and would rise by 75% in 2025 to 652,000 replacements, by 129% in 2030 to 850,000 replacements, and by 284% in 2040 to 1,429,000 replacements. This, coupled with the rapid adoption of robots for THA (total hip arthroplasty) procedures, is projected to drive the segmental expansion during the forecast timeframe.

The increasing preference for partial replacement surgeries, the growing prevalence of hip osteoarthritis, and new product launches are factors attributable to the significant growth of the partial replacement segment. The rising need for revision procedures after wearing out of previously implanted products and a shift toward hip resurfacing are major factors contributing to the segment's growth.
