DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/sjm63j/global_orthopedic) has announced the addition of the "Global Orthopedic Biomaterials Market 2014-2018" report to their offering.
The Global Orthopedic Biomaterials market to grow at a CAGR of 10.78% over the period 2013-2018
Orthopedic biomaterial deals with the physical and chemical properties of the material that is implanted into the human body as constituents of devices. The material implanted is designed to perform specific biological functions by substituting or repairing the damaged tissues such as cartilage, bone, ligaments, and tendons.
One key emerging trend in the market is the advances in technology. Vendors are investing in R&D to develop new and advanced biomaterial products that are compatible and useful in orthopedic biomaterial implants. The introduction of third-generation orthopedic biomaterials such as glass-ceramics, bioactive glasses, and the presence of targeted drugs will increase the growth of the market in the future.
According to the report, the increasing incidence of diseases such as musculoskeletal, obesity, trauma, osteoporosis, and other orthopedic-related conditions among the aging population is one of the major drivers. The increasing incidence of orthopedic-related conditions among the aging population has led to an increase in the demand for orthopedic biomaterial products, thereby contributing to the growth of the market.
Further, the report states that one of the major challenges in the market is the risk of complications associated with orthopedic implantation such as fatigue, fracture, and wear problems due to differences in orthopedic biomaterials, biocompatibility, and environmental stress.
To calculate the market size, the report considers the revenue generated from the sales of the following seven products:
- Bone allografts
- Machined bones
- Demineralized Bone Matrix (DBM)
- Bone Morphogenetic Protein (BMP)
- Viscosupplementation
- Stem cell therapy
