Orthopedic consumables market drivers

Traditional surgical procedures result in a number of post-operative complications including blood clots, fatigue, and muscle atrophy. This led to the implementation of minimally invasive (MI) procedures. Owing to their advantages such as reduced costs and hospital stay, lower risks of post-operation infections, rapid results, faster recovery period, and reduced discomfort and pain, there is a growing preference for MI procedures for orthopedic surgeries as well, which will, in turn, fuel the growth of the orthopedic consumables market.
