市场洞察和分析师观点:
矫形辅助器具是旨在增强肌肉骨骼系统的可持续性和功能性的设备或支撑。这些工具经常用于解决疼痛、损伤或畸形等医疗状况。常见的矫形辅助器具包括矫形鞋垫、踝关节支架、膝关节支架、背部支架、腕部支架、肩部支架、颈椎支架、假肢、脊柱矫形器等。矫形器已被证明可以减轻使用者的疼痛并提高生活质量。由于这些好处,受肌肉骨骼疾病影响的人群对矫形辅助器具的需求不断增加。因此,设备制造商和医疗保健提供商从中受益匪浅。此外,满足未满足需求的个性化以及材料和技术的创新可能会在未来几年开辟巨大的市场机会。
增长动力和挑战:
由于大量人口对矫形辅助器具的需求不断增长,美国矫形辅助器具市场正在持续快速发展,这也导致新产品开发和推出的增加批准。矫形辅助器具市场参与者投资研发活动,以确保有效产品的革命和开发。 2021 年 2 月,膝关节、髋关节、肘关节、脊柱、足部和踝关节支架的领先制造商 Breg Inc 宣布推出 Pinnacle 和 Ascend 系列脊柱矫形器。通过该产品,Breg Inc. 旨在通过更舒适的支架来提高脊柱护理水平,从而鼓励治疗依从性并促进愈合。 2020 年 5 月,支撑、压缩治疗、假肢和其他骨科产品的开发商和制造商 Össur 宣布推出 Unloader One X,这是其 Unloader One 护膝的最新型号。
影响肌肉骨骼系统的多种疾病身体状况需要医疗护理。类风湿性关节炎、骨关节炎和关节炎是经常影响人们的骨科疾病的几个例子。美国政府正在采取必要措施,提高人们对骨科疾病的认识,并增加人们获得骨科产品的机会。为了应对日益增加的骨关节炎负担,疾病控制和预防中心资助了骨关节炎行动联盟(OAAA)。 OAAA 通过经过验证的干预措施、公共政策、沟通策略和改进的骨关节炎研究计划,促进预防和控制 OA 及其进展的行动。在全国关节炎宣传月期间,关节炎基金会举办了一场宣传活动,以提高人们对关节炎的认识。作为 2023 年活动的一部分,关节炎基金会一直在举办各种宣传活动。通过这些活动,关节炎基金会主要致力于筹集资金并提高大众的认识。因此,政府为培养人们对骨科疾病的认识而采取的举措推动了骨科辅助器具的采用。
与传统的静态功能性护膝相比,动态功能性护膝设计在受伤或手术后可提供卓越的膝关节保护。最近开发的动态后十字韧带 (PCL) 膝关节支架可抵消由后近端胫骨上的前力引起的胫骨后平移。因此,这些支架有助于减少任何不利力对 PCL 的影响,并减少最终的后滞后。标准支具(例如功能性护膝、卸载支具和氯丁橡胶套)越来越频繁地用于治疗慢性膝盖疼痛。它们还用于预防受伤、加速康复以及增强身体和运动表现。这些牙套的广泛应用归因于它们长期以来的一致形式。尽管标准护膝被广泛用作伤害和疾病的预防和管理辅助手段,但其主要目的是提供横向稳定性或纠正错位的膝关节结构。这些支架不仅可以提供结构支撑或对齐校正,还可以通过技术进步来增强腿部肌肉力量。它们的应用可以通过采用现代技术来改善健康人和受伤者的膝关节功能,使任何运动——从基本的日常任务到举重和越野滑雪——变得更加容易。膝关节伸肌辅助 (KEA) 设计是新型支撑技术的一个例子。最近,人们努力通过使用增强辅助装置技术的膝盖支撑来解决和改善肌肉组织在促进健康膝盖功能中的作用。改善肌肉力量有助于减轻佩戴者的疲劳,从而提高运动员、陆地部队和体力劳动者的表现。
不一致的保险范围或有限的产品范围会导致患者的成本负担增加。矫形治疗和辅助器具的高昂成本以及不利的报销政策阻碍了矫形辅助器具市场的增长。患有慢性疼痛或受伤的老年人可以从背带中受益匪浅。耐用的手臂、腿部、颈部和背部支架由 Medicare B 部分承保,但有一些限制。医疗保险支架福利涵盖膝关节矫形器。矫形器必须是半刚性或刚性装置,用于支撑虚弱或变形的身体部位,或限制或完全排除身体患病或受伤部位的运动,才有资格享受本福利的承保。牙套福利的法定定义不适用于刚性不够,无法固定或支撑其预期身体部位的物品。不符合支具描述的物品不属于此 Medicare 福利的承保范围,也不符合享受福利的资格。

细分分析:
根据产品类型,矫形辅助器具市场分为身体带、支架等。支具部分进一步分为颈部和颈椎支具、膝盖支具、足部支撑和支具、肘部支撑和支具等。其他部分进一步分为袋臂吊带、石膏套和石膏鞋。背部牵引带、弹力背带、铜带、背痛带、背带等身体带常用来治疗关节扭伤、肌肉拉伤和损伤。大多数人在一生中的某个时刻可能会经历背痛。根据 Cross River Therapy 的数据,十分之八的美国人表示一年中至少有一次或多次出现背部问题。虽然受伤和疾病是导致背痛的几个原因之一,但很大一部分病例是由于不正确举起重物和不良姿势造成的。佩戴背部支架是预防背部疼痛和改善姿势的标准方法。
按产品类型划分的美国矫形辅助器具市场 - 2022 年和 2028 年
根据应用,矫形辅助器具市场分为韧带损伤修复、预防护理、骨关节炎、压力治疗等。内侧副韧带(MCL)、后十字韧带(PCL)、前十字韧带(ACL)和外侧副韧带(LCL)是膝关节的四大韧带。韧带有助于保持人的膝盖运动,中等程度的轻微伤害也会给人们带来很大的不适。护膝可以减轻膝盖的负荷。如果一个人有部分撕裂,医生可能会建议使用 ACL 支架和物理疗法来增强肌肉,以非手术方式修复 ACL 撕裂。然而,对于接受手术的患者,医生建议佩戴术后护膝和拐杖,直到充分康复。 ACL 撕裂的康复过程相对较长,可能需要 6 个月到 1 年才能完成。康复后,可能会建议患者在运动时佩戴 ACL 护膝。 PCL撕裂分为1级撕裂、2级撕裂、3级撕裂和健康PCL。如果撕裂足够严重,患者可能需要进行 PCL 手术。手术后,建议他们佩戴 PCL 护膝以进行术后恢复。 Braceability 提供多种支架和支撑来预防和治疗 PCL 撕裂。大多数内侧副韧带损伤可以通过冰敷、抗炎药物和休息在家治疗。医生可能会建议使用支架来帮助保护患者的膝盖并使其能够进行一些活动。如果撕裂严重,患者可能需要手术。
根据分销渠道,矫形辅助器具市场分为线上和线下。线下细分市场进一步分为医院、药店和零售。零售药房通常会提供社区指导,以鼓励安全有效地使用产品。医疗中心提供的护理和服务包括称为医院药房的特定药房实践领域。医院先进技术和设施的可用性增加了人们对医院治疗骨科疾病的偏好。这反过来又增加了矫形辅助产品(例如支架、腰带和手臂吊带)通过医院药房的分销。
