Market Insights and Analyst View:

Neurostimulation devices are medical devices designed to modulate the nervous system's activity. They are used to treat various neurological conditions and chronic pain. There are several types of neurostimulation devices, including spinal cord stimulators, deep brain stimulators, vagus nerve stimulators, and peripheral nerve stimulators. These devices can significantly improve the quality of life for individuals with various neurological conditions. The increasing prevalence of neurological diseases and increasing spinal cord injury cases are the key factors behind the market development. However, the lack of expert professionals is hampering the neurostimulation devices market growth.

Growth Drivers and Challenges:

The geriatric population is susceptible to neurological diseases. Common neurological disorders affecting older people are neuropathy, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, dystonia, and others. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), 8.5% of the world's population (i.e., ~617 million people) is 65 years and above. Countries such as the US and Canada have high prevalence rates of movement disorders and psychiatric disorders associated with growing geriatric populations. According to the Parkinson's Foundation, Parkinson's symptoms are common at an average age of 60.

The Canadian Psychological Association states that obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) affects ~2% of the population in Canada. The World Health Organization (WHO) states that epilepsy is a seizure-causing neurological disorder that affects ~50 million people worldwide. As per the American Academy of Neurology, stroke is the third leading cause of death in the US, followed by Alzheimer's as the sixth leading cause. Statistics from the same source show that nearly one million Americans are affected by Parkinson's, and at least 60,000 new cases are reported annually. The growing incidence of neurological diseases coupled with lifestyle-related disorders such as depression and chronic pain leads to the increasing adoption of technologically advanced products.

According to the WHO, nervous disorders contribute to ~6.3% of the global disease burden. Also, according to the same source, the disorders are one of the leading causes of death worldwide. They cause 13.2% of deaths in developed countries and 16.8% in low- and middle-income countries. High mortality and disease burden necessitate the clinical urgency for integrating long-term solutions. Furthermore, growing awareness regarding the tremendous burden of neurological disorders has increased the demand for neurostimulators as a therapy.

Therefore, the growing geriatric population prone to neurological diseases, increasing prevalence of the diseases, and rising awareness regarding the tremendous burden of neurological disorders drive the neurostimulation devices market size.

Segmental Analysis:

Based on product, the neurostimulation devices market is segmented into spinal cord stimulators, deep brain stimulators, sacral nerve stimulators, vagus nerve stimulators, and others. The spinal cord stimulator segment held the largest market share in 2022 and is anticipated to register a higher CAGR during 2022–2030. Spinal cord stimulation can treat patients with severe, chronic pain due to various conditions, including failed back surgery/arachnoiditis, neuropathic pain/neuropathy, and complex regional pain syndrome/reflex sympathetic dystrophy. A few SCS devices use a low-frequency current to change the pain sensation with a mild tingling called paresthesia. Other SCS devices use high-frequency or burst pulses to mask the pain without a tingling sensation.

Spinal cord stimulation has become a basic in interventional pain management to treat various chronic pain conditions. Advances have been made since its initial inception in 1967, leading to new technologies allowing for minimally invasive placement and internalized batteries. For instance, in May 2023, Abbott received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for SCS devices for treating chronic back pain in people not able to receive back surgery, known as nonsurgical back pain. Furthermore, in August 2023, Medtronic plc received CE Mark approval for its Inceptiv closed-loop rechargeable SCS. It is the first Medtronic SCS device to offer a closed-loop feature that senses each person's unique biological signals and adjusts stimulation every moment, as needed, to keep therapy in harmony with the motions of daily life. Such developments are boosting the adoption of SCS, fueling the segment growth in the global neurostimulation devices market.

The neurostimulation devices market, by application, is segmented into pain management, epilepsy, urinary and fecal incontinence, Parkinson’s disease, and others. The pain management segment held the largest market share in 2022, and the same is anticipated to register a higher CAGR during 2022–2030.

Chronic pain affects geriatric people, trauma and surgery patients, people undergoing different therapies, and those linked to various physical and mental conditions. As per the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), back pain is the second leading reason for hospital visits, and ~60% and 80% of people experience lower back pain during their lifetime, which is one of the major reasons for hospital admission or surgeries.

Neurostimulation is a safer and more efficient solution for alleviating chronic pain and is widely adopted. Numerous biotech companies are launching neurostimulators to help opioid addicts overcome pain and other withdrawal symptoms. For example, in April 2021, Spark Biomedical, a leading medical device company, rolled out a new neurostimulation device called Sparrow Therapy System to help opioid addicts work through withdrawal symptoms. The device uses low doses of electricity to stimulate endorphin production, which helps to alleviate the pain and fear that patients experience during withdrawal. Furthermore, in March 2021, Mainstay Medical launched ReActiv8, an implantable neurostimulation device for chronic low back pain (CLBP), in Australia. The device can potentially be helpful to adults with intractable CLBP linked with the dysfunction of the lumbar multifidus. In January 2023, the FDA approved Abbott’s Proclaim X.R. spinal cord neurostimulation system, which supports patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy to manage chronic pain. Thus, the application and benefits mentioned above positively influence the neurostimulation devices market during 2022–2030.
