DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/m9gb7v/u_s_markets_for_l) has announced the addition of the "U.S. Markets for Large Joint Replacement Technologies" report to their offering.
The U.S. market has seen strong economic headwinds in recent years, limiting sales of hip and knee replacement technologies. Other factors, such as the shift away from metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty devices and the introduction of patient-matched knee replacement products, have had significant effects on market growth and product preferences.
While clinical preferences and the advanced features of recent product introductions will influence trends in the market, the main factors affecting growth include insurance coverage and economic conditions. Expanded coverage due to improving economic conditions as well as healthcare reform efforts will remove the main causes of surgical postponements, leading to growth later in the forecast period.
This report examines the market for replacement and resurfacing products for the hips and knees in the U.S., and provides a detailed analysis of the clinical and economic factors driving the market.
