步行輔助裝置 - 全球市場考量、競爭格局、市場預測 (2030)Walking Assist Devices - Market Insights, Competitive Landscape, and Market Forecast - 2030 |
全球助行器市場規模預計到2023年將達到65.8億美元,到2030年將達到84.1億美元,2024-2030年預測期間複合年增長率為4.2%。由於關節炎、骨質疏鬆症等骨科疾病的日益流行,預計市場將蓬勃發展。導致殘疾的交通事故的增加也是市場成長的因素。老年人口的增加以及對提高助行器的安全性、可用性和易用性的日益關注預計將導致預測期內(2024-2030 年)市場收入顯著增長。
助行器市場動態
助行器市場的顯著驅動因素是慢性骨科疾病盛行率上升、道路事故數量增加、截肢病例增加、人口老化等。
骨關節炎、類風濕性關節炎和帕金森氏症等骨科和神經系統疾病盛行率的上升是市場成長的主要動力。根據世界衛生組織(WHO)(2022)的數據,肌肉骨骼疾病是導致殘疾的主要原因,全球約有 17.1 億人患有骨質疏鬆症、骨關節炎和類風濕性關節炎等肌肉骨骼疾病。根據世界銀行(2022)提供的信息,世界上大約 15% 的人口面臨某種類型的殘疾。
根據世界衛生組織(2022)發佈的數據,2019年全球約有850萬人受到帕金森氏症(PD)的影響,根據同一份文件,PD導致580萬傷殘調整生命年。由於帕金森氏症會影響個人的移動能力,因此鼓勵患者使用助行器等物品來改善活動能力和平衡能力,以避免任何類型的危險跌倒。
這表明對助行器的需求不斷增長,使身體殘疾的人能夠四處走動並克服與行動相關的挑戰,從而對助行器市場產生積極影響。
道路事故的增加也是市場成長的一個主要考慮因素。突發交通事故造成的輕傷或致命傷害有時會導致殘疾,增加對助行器的需求,並對助行器市場的成長產生正面影響。根據世界衛生組織(2022)的數據,每年約有 130 萬人因道路事故死亡,約 2000-5000 萬人遭受非致命傷害或某種形式的殘疾。
然而,與助行器相關的某些風險以及缺乏向患者提供有關使用這些設備的適當培訓可能會成為助行器市場成長的限制因素。
助行器市場報告稱,由於作為遏制 COVID-19 傳播的必要措施而實施的封鎖,市場成長受到短期限制。許多國家根據緊急醫療需求暫停了醫療程序,包括骨科檢查,以簡化 COVID-19 危機期間的工作流程。助行器的製造和供應也受到疫情期間封鎖和邊境關閉的影響。然而,隨著包括醫療產業在內的各行業活動的恢復,對助行器的需求正在增加。預測 2024 年至 2030 年期間,後 COVID-19 情況下助行器市場可望改善。
