This report studies the global medical bionic implants market over the forecast period of 2012 to 2017.
Bionics involves the study of biological systems in order to develop artificial systems that can replicate
their functions. Bionic implants are mechanical or electronic systems that function like living organisms or
parts of living organisms. Bionics, when extended to the field of medicine, seeks to replace or enhance
organs or parts of the human body using artificial prosthesis. The market is expected to grow at a CAGR
of 7.1% from 2012 to 2017 to reach $17.82 billion by 2017.
The global medical bionic implant (artificial organs) market is divided into five categories based on the
type of products, technology used, and type of fixation. It includes vision bionics, ear bionics, orthopedic
bionics, heart bionics, and neural/brain bionics. Medical bionics in pipeline include wearable artificial
kidney, bio-lung, and artificial pancreas. The technology segment comprises of electronic and mechanical
bionics, while medical bionic implants are classified as externally worn and implantable based on the type
of fixation.
The medical bionic implant (artificial organs) industry has witnessed a myriad of technological
advancements over the past two decades. It is expected that this trend will continue in the future in a bid
to solve present challenges and fill unmet needs of the market. Manufactures are now focusing on the
development of bionic implant products such as wearable artificial kidney, bio-lung, and artificial pancreas
for diseases that cannot be cured with alternative treatment methods.
Increasing organ failure owing to aging and age-related disorders, increasing accidents and injuries
leading to amputations, and rise in number of people awaiting organ transplants are the major drivers
slated to propel the growth of this market. However, a few pivotal factors restraining growth are the high
cost of devices and uncertain reimbursement scenarios in different regions, limited surgical expertise, and
high cost of development.
