EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The global market for orthopaedic products is vast, comprising an estimated 9% of the total market for medical devices in 1999. This market is highly fragmented and whilst some orthopaedic product segments grew by as much as 43% from 1998 to 1999, others have expanded by only 4%.

Market growth has been driven by two major factors:

The orthopaedic product sectors that have expanded most rapidly are those composed mostly of novel technologies, whilst the slower growing sectors are those that contain more traditional products and whose expansion relies on the increasing penetration of existing markets. Table ES.1 lists the major orthopaedic product sectors ranked by growth.

Table ES.1: Ranking by growth of the top 10 orthopaedic product sectors, 1999

Ranking Product sector
1 Image guided surgery
2 Spine repair
3 Tissue engineering
4 Electrical stimulation
5 Trauma fixation
6 Rehabilitation products
7 Powered instruments
8 Arthroscopy
9 Casting materials
10 Joint implants

Whilst the product sectors leading Table ES.1 are the fastest growing, and therefore worth investing in, they are not the most valuable. Many of the larger orthopaedic companies are, therefore, concentrating on developing their core product ranges in the more valuable sectors, for example joint implants (see Table ES.2) in order to be able to finance research in the more rapidly growing sectors.
